Though the older Canon equipment produced about 8,000 impressions a month, volume has skyrocketed on the CS650 to an average of 80,000 impressions per month. This is because color jobs that were previously outsourced can now be done in-house.
Jobs are submitted in a variety of ways: EDU Business Solutions/Print Shop Pro for order entry, delivery and billing; EDU Business Solutions WEBdesk from EDU for online order entry; and Océ’s DocWorks PRISMAaccess and PRISMAprepare for production.
