IPG: Ray, why is the University of Louisville better off having it's own in-plant rather than letting an outside company manage its printing?

Ray Chambers: Well, I can start with the reason why people started in-plants in the first place. It's cheaper, often we have a need for control, and in the university's case we've got some confidentiality issues in terms of the students' records, patient records and all those sorts of things.
