Washington State University Publishing has just installed an 11-color 44˝ Epson Stylus Pro 9900 wide-format printer. In the first two months the 45-employee in-plant has had the machine, it has pumped out well over 200 posters and other projects.

Winner of the In-Plant Printing and Mailing Association’s coveted Management Award, Washington State University Publishing was one of the first in-plants to receive FSC chain-of-custody certification.
