Lamination Innovation

Joe Howell, production supervisor for general support services at the University of Alaska Anchorage, is a perfect example of the wide-format scenario described by Pilch and Gnatowsky.

"We purchased a Ledco Digital 42˝ laminator to complement our HP Designjet 5000," says Howell. "We had intended to laminate and mount items produced in-house for the departments on campus that are our main clients, but we now use the laminator for state and non-profit agencies and for personal customers, such as faculty, staff and students. More and more customers are coming in to have personal posters or artwork laminated and/or mounted."
