In January 2003, RIT began operation of a new six-unit, 57” wide Goss Sunday 2000 Web Offset Press. This $10 million press resides in the newly constructed, environmentally controlled Goss Web Press Laboratory. Augmented by nearly $2 million worth of auxiliary equipment, including state-of-the-art closed loop color control, RIT can provide the industry with the foremost facility in the world for education and research in web offset printing.
