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 more than 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.

Eight more in-plants recently earned Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) chain-of-custody certification through the InGreen group certification program for in-plants. They include Colgate University, Villanova University, Bayer Corp. and Yale University.

After its cancellation last year due to low registration numbers, the Association of College and University Printers (ACUP) conference was back with a vengeance this year. Attendees this year hailed from as far away as Australia, New Zealand and Scotland, and included managers from all over the U.S., from Oregon to New Hampshire, with a large contingent from Texas.

Tucked inside a nondescript brick building at the edge of campus, the University of Delaware’s Graphic Communications Center has brought a lot of favorable attention to the university in recent years. The quality of its offset printing has earned the in-plant numerous awards, including two Best of Show honors in the In-Print contest. Now the 19-employee in-plant is bringing the Fighting Blue Hens into the spotlight once again by becoming one of the first in-plants to install a new Xerox iGen4 digital color press. 

The University of Delaware’s Graphic Communications Center has just received its chain-of-custody certification from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). It joins a growing number of in-plants that have earned this certification over the past year.

First the question: Who holds the record for appearing on the most IPG covers? Here are the choices: -Jean-Luc Devis -Mike Loyd -West Barton -Bob Slaughter -Rick Wise Answer: This was a trick question. But since we’re not giving out prizes, who really cares, right? There are actually TWO correct answers. Mike Loyd and West Barton have both appeared four times on our cover. And I should add, this was my decision, not theirs, lest you think there was some ego involved. There have been several three-timers, too: Rodney Brown, Rick Wise, Bob Slaughter, Carol Doffing-Kraft and Ralph Sperrazza. The list
