The Erie (Pa.) Times-News deployed Presteligence’s Ink-Miser app through a subscription-based model that allows the daily to optimize a certain number of pages each month for a set service fee.
Although the Times-News hasn’t been able to determine concrete numbers yet, Rich Forsgren, director of technology for the daily’s parent, Times Publishing Co., said he’s confident the software will generate significant savings.
“We can’t justify it yet because we just started using it but I know we’ll save on ink,” he said. “And the quality of the images has improved.”
The Times-News can opt to continue with the subscription-based service or purchase the software if it so chooses, Forsgren said.
Ink-Miser runs on the paper’s Presteligence NewsXtreme workflow server and optimizes files with GCR using device-link profiles.
News & Tech will have more information about the Times-News’ deployment of Ink-Miser in the July issue.
