Can In-plants Support Digital Color Printers?

With $7.6 million in sales last year, the in-plant is "lean and mean," Benzon says. "There's not a lot of fat in our operation. We're very efficient." Which is one of the reasons the Indigo had to go.

To compete with other printers along the I-5 (Interstate 5) corridor, which runs from Canada to Mexico, G&PS is committed to updating and upgrading its equipment, Benzon emphasizes. That's why a Canon 5000 digital color printer was added to the Redmond/Rainier facility a few months before the Indigo was unplugged.
