Offset Paper - Surviving The Digital Era

Waiting It Out

Both Boise Cascade and Domtar are holding off on developing cross-over papers, according to company representatives.

"We have a standard opaque offset, which is a 93 bright and laser and digital compatible in some pieces of equipment. We're trying to expand the number of equipment installations out there that it will successfully go through," says Plumberg, of Boise Cascade. "A lot of folks still have the ink-jet for the variable data and are waiting to see what the market will do before they invest in [digital] equipment."
