Government Printers Wrap up Virginia Beach Conference

Fortunately, things turned around quickly when U.S. Public Printer William J. Boarman took the stage for his keynote address, demonstrating why he is known as "the first printer." Boarman explained why many people make incorrect assumptions about the costs associated with in-plants.
“I think that is a common misconception and a false positive by managers who get rid of print shops. They think that by moving a line item that is very visible, they will save money. Someone in 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.
