Government Printers Convene in Seattle
Following the tour, the conference reconvened in the plant’s lunch room for two educational sessions. The entire DOP staff was invited to attend, adding more than 100 people to the audience for the largest single-day attendance in NGPA conference history.
First, Steve Rigby, director of printing at Washington State University, gave a presentation on marketing, emphasizing that it should be a state of mind, not simply an event. Marketing opportunities include plant tours, open houses and seminars. His in-plant holds digital printing presentations to show customers new applications using the shop’s HP Indigo 3050.
