In the end, ironically, it was actually due to budget cuts that the new printer was approved.PITNEY BOWES W360 Multifunction Tabber System Palmer proved that it doesn’t hurt to ask for what you want, even in a time of reduced expenditures. “Now we are always dealing with fresh envelopes, which is so much easier,” he observes. By the time Palmer and his crew of four tried to insert them, the envelopes would be warped or sealed. For example, Admissions used to order 100-200 once a year, only to have the envelopes sit in storage. “I noticed that more incoming freshmen know their box numbers now than in previous years,” Palmer notes.Īn additional benefit, he says, is that the in-plant is not wasting any envelopes. This year, Palmer used the Impressia to print an image of a mailbox and each student’s unique box number. But once they get to campus, most can’t remember it. For example, before each school year, Mail and Print Services sends a letter to incoming freshmen with their mailbox number. The variable printed envelopes are actually encouraging students to open their mail. The new Xanté Impressia does more than save time and money though. “Basically, my boss looked at me and said, ‘Well, I guess you’re getting a printer!’” Palmer recalls.
To compensate, IA planned to bring in-house its quarterly appeal mailings - a job of about 100,000 annual mailings. Like all departments at the college, IA had cut its budget it was down $20,000 per year. Then something unexpected happened an inter-departmental meeting with the Office of Institutional Advancement (IA) and Admissions changed things significantly. “It was one more piece than we originally had, and it was actually going to put us over budget,” he reflects. Palmer made arrangements for a new Pitney Bowes inserter, addressing printer, tabber and postage meter, which were leased through Amasti in West Virginia.īut sadly the coveted “dream machine” - a Xanté Impressia digital envelope printer - was not approved. “They felt it was worth it,” Palmer explains, “because we’ve proved we could save the college money.”

It would cost about $10,000 to replace all the shop’s equipment, install new carpets, shelves and chairs, and add a fresh coat of paint - not to mention the dream machine Palmer was hoping to add.īut because the in-plant had saved the college about $50,000 last year by printing jobs in-house instead of sending them to outside printers, the refresh was granted.
