As for the future of printing at OSP, Cron does not see it going away any time soon.

"I see us using a lot more paper in the next decade," she says. The Internet explosion, she adds, has made us hungry for information, and until a new generation comes along that is used to reading from a monitor, paper usage will continue to increase.

As for other future trends, Cron says we should expect the unexpected.

"Five years from now I don't think digital printing is going to be the big thing," she predicts. "There's going to be something radically new—and we expect to be there."
