Fortunately, adds Fenton, Hansen was followed by the Public Printer of the United States, William J. Boarman, who took a different tack in his keynote address. Boarman explained that, as a printer, he knows many people make incorrect assumptions about the costs associated with in-plants.
"I think [cutting staff] is a common misconception, and a false positive by managers who get rid of print shops," he said. "They think that by moving a line item that is very visible they will save money. Someone in a city council can look at this and say, 'There's $1.5 million that we can save,' but they don't know how much they are going to save in the long run.
