Though digital printing continues to grow at in-plants, some shops retain healthy offset printing operations. Recently, three of those in-plants were honored with In-Print Best of Show awards for the quality of their printing.

Bob has served as editor of In-plant Impressions since October of 1994. Prior to that he served for three years as managing editor of Printing Impressions, a commercial printing publication. Mr. Neubauer is very active in the U.S. in-plant industry. He attends all the major in-plant conferences and has visited nearly 170 in-plant operations around the world. He has given presentations to numerous in-plant groups in the U.S., Canada and Australia, including the Association of College and University Printers and the In-plant Printing and Mailing Association. He also coordinates the annual In-Print contest, co-sponsored by IPMA and In-plant Impressions.
On Sunday evening, nearly 140 in-plant managers and other attendees will gather in Buffalo, New York, for the opening reception of the IPMA conference. It will be the largest gathering of in-plant managers in the world.
John Sarantakos, director of Print and Mail Services at the University of Oklahoma, will receive IPMA’s Outstanding Contributor Award at the 2022 Educational Conference and Vendor Fair.
Four years after installing a Kodak NexPress 2500 digital color press, University of Oklahoma Printing & Mailing Services has just upgraded to a NexPress SX3300. The new digital press brings a 31 percent boost in speed, improved quality output and a new set of ink solutions that will allow the 94-employee in-plant to produce scores of specialty applications.
With 68 percent of in-plants still providing offset printing (according to a new IPG survey), and shops like University of Alabama, University of Oklahoma, Vanderbilt University, and many others still keeping their presses very busy, it appears that long-run offset printing is a long way from fading away.

THIS IS going to be a little weird, but I am going to have an argument with myself over the future of offset printing. I must caution the weak of heart to be prepared for violence and possible rough language.
