smoothly with approximately 15 jobs fully operational and several
others in various stages of completion. Delivery of the last two
custom "form slides" from Photographic Sciences Corporation are
expected early next week. These form slides are needed to produce
many of our high profile Office of Finance payroll requests as well
as ADSTAR project 16mm microfilm that is used extensively by DI
analysts. Most of the bi-weekly payroll COM fiche are running
smoothly on the new Datagraphix system with a remarkable improvement
in throughput time. One of these requests imaged 98 fiche in less
than two hours, demonstrating a 50 percent reduction in running time
in comparison to the 3M 735 COM recorders.

requests for graphic support were received by the Office of
Logistics, Printing and Photography Group (OL/P&PG) from the
Directorate of Operations, Counterintelligence Center (DO/CIC).
Those requests were in support for a briefing to the Defense
Intelligence Agency (DIA) on Thursday, 27 October and for a
presentation by the National Intelligence Officer for Warning
(NIO/W) to the Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) on 27 October.
Because of technical problems, emergency procedures had to be taken
in making black and white transparencies from the black and white
proof copies made on the Imagen Laser Printer. Although the quality
was not up to P&PG's usual high standards, the DO/CIC client was
most appreciative and deadlines were met.
