Deans Of Duplication

Most college in-plants have noticed a big increase in the demand for color printing over the past few years. This has sparked a need for updated equipment, and many in-plants say that obtaining funding for this equipment has become their biggest struggle.

"I've been trying for a number of years just to get a true two-color in here," remarks John Bowser of Miami University, in Oxford, Ohio. Justifying the cost of new equipment, he says, is a tough task. The viability of offset at the university has been challenged, and may be challenged again, he says.
