The Magic Of Print-on-demand

The goal is still to collect and disseminate information, but now the operation can print documents as needed, instead of printing in volume and storing for later consumption.The benefits of on-demand printing were vividly demonstrated when a cleanup of outdated publications from the warehouse several years ago recycled 36 tons of paper. As part of that process, the agency's menu of 4,000 titles was reduced to 3,100. The agency continues to reduce this remaining inventory by publicizing the benefits of producing documents in smaller volumes.
