State Printing FY06 rates OK’d
--GSD Office of State Printing, October 2005

Rising oil costs have driven up the cost for paper and other printing supplies, but State Printing Administrator Joe Tucker said the office will be able to hold the line on charges for color copies at 10 cents per copy this fiscal year thanks to heavy demand for this service by state agencies.

The office remains committed to delivering the most affordable printing for state government. Its Web site, located at http://das.ohio.gov/gsd/prt/Prt.html, features a chart showing how state agencies can save time and money when they rely on DAS copy centers instead of competitors in the private sector.

Technological advances will help State Printing keep prices affordable. In the coming months, the office will shift offset printing jobs to digital color copiers. This will provide a wider range of options for color printing, reduce production costs and help control printing costs in the future.
