The Value Of Color

"For us, it has been a matter of cost," says Paul Hughes, Printing Department supervisor at Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, in Frazer, Pa. "Once the cost of color came down, the color copying just started selling."

Hughes says his shop, which operates a Xerox 2060, a Canon 5000 and a Canon 1000, has been running up to 400,000 copies per month lately, several times higher than the color volume just two years ago. As he spoke his shop was running 30,000 copies of a company newsletter on the Xerox 2060.
