The State of Oregon’s in-plant has saved millions for its customers, while enhancing document security.

By Erik Cagle

Using IBM Infoprint 4100s and a range of Canon digital printers (soon to be replaced with Kodak and Ricoh gear), the in-plant serves more than 1,500 customers in state agencies, cities, counties and municipalities all over Oregon. Variable data is used on a large portion of the printed materials the in-plant produces, including jury summonses for 34 counties, statements, invoices and client notices for the Department of Human Services. Its copy center handles all the general printing needs of the agencies—training materials, flyers and other informational pieces.
