Newspapers--(Don't) Stop the Presses!

"We're going to add a folder in the bindery department to fold preprints and do off-line folding," Heinen says. "We'll be doing stitching and trimming within the next year."

The News Examiner, a three-days-per-week Gannett paper located in Gallatin, TN—30 minutes north of Nashville—runs its presses 16 hours a day, four days a week, yet is looking to add another print job or two. Ralph Rupe, production manager, notes that the Examiner can do all aspects of specialized services, from design to paste-up. The printer can also receive digital transmissions.
