PRINTING AND PHOTOGRAPHY DIVISION
WEEKLY REPORT FOR PERIOD ENDING
7 June - 13 June 1984
I. Items or Events of Major Interest that Have Occurred
During the Preceding Week
A. Digital Prepress Activities: Installation began the week
of 4 June on the three Atex Release 4 systems that will reside in
the new P&PD Electronic Text Editing and Composition System
(ETECS) computer room in GJ-66 Headquarters. Atex delivered the
new interfaces to existing systems and the supporting hardware
required to test peripheral devices and communications links.
The coaxial cables for the new ETECS terminals for the office of
Current Production and Analytic Support (O/CPAS) use are
scheduled to be installed this week.
B. Printing Support: During this reporting week, 205
printing jobs were received in P&PD. Significant jobs currently
in the Bi the World

Factbook, and
Studies in Intelligence. Other sign]. scant o s in the early
STAT stages of the printing process are the and the
1986 Executive Committee Review.
C. Copier Activities: The Xerox 9900 high volume copier
currently available for a 60-day test in the P&PD Bindery and
Reproduction Center (B&RC) is running well. Over 300,000 copies
have been run on the machine in a copy center high production
environment with only minor problems. The machine keeps its own
log of how many sheets are copied on two sides vs. one side, how
many are stapled, sorted, etc. It is demonstrating early that
productivity is higher than on the traditionally used Xerox 9400
and 9500VR. Paper jams are less frequent, paper feeding is
smoother, sorting is faster, and an entire intermediary step can
be eliminated when performing two-sided copying. The 9900 should
help expedite the increasing workload in the B&RC which currently
has 335 jobs on hand.
D. Headquarters Auditorium Support: The new General Electric
large screen television (LSTV) projector has been installed in
the Headquarters Auditorium. Comments from the audience have
been quite favorable. The previous eight year old LSTV

projector, owned by OCR, was in need of frequent repair,
projected a poor quality image, was not stable with regard to
tracking, and was a source of contention. The new P&PD
projector, jointly funded by P&PD and OCR, has alleviated these
problems.
