The in-plant—which employs 12 state workers in addition to 50 inmates—opted for a horizontal collator to eliminate the right-angle turns sheets had to make when going through the previous collator. The static on the sheets would cause problems on these turns.
On the new horizontal collator, paper with static or moisture content is no problem. The machine can handle a wider range of media too, including 110-lb. card stock.
