Major Ink Cartridge User Wins Printing Award

Printing firm and mass-user of ink cartridges, Jacob North Companies, has been awarded the prestigious Great Printer Certification to keep it among the big players of the Midwest printing industry.

The award, bestowed on the company by Printing Industry Midwest (PIM), tests printers on two main areas in order for them to receive it. Those areas are, firstly, a safety and environmental audit which examines companies' environmental efficiency in its operation.

Second, companies are required to ensure that they have two 'above compliance' projects which show that the company doesn't just do the minimum required. The company's vice president, Chad Pinkman, stated that the award would do wonders for his company.

Paul Gutkowski, PIM's director of safety and environmental services, said: "Many printers attribute their successful Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) visits with no citations to their Great Printer Certification status. OSHA inspectors know that the Great Printer logo represents 'above and beyond compliance'."

Other printer ink companies in the region to receive the award include Advanced Web, Ambassador Press and Bang Printing.
