Why should printers participate in PrintSTEP?

PrintSTEP is the first simplified program for managing environmental regulatory requirements of printers.

Tailored to printing industry specifically, PrintSTEP offers these features:

  • Addresses all relevant environmental issues in a single location, the Plain Language Workbook
  • Avoids involvement with regulation that doesn’t apply to the printing industry
  • Provides practical guidance to improve environmental performance with the potential for bottom-line savings
  • Uses plain language already familiar to the printer
  • Uses a short-form approach to determination of environmental status, and thus applicable requirements, much like the IRS short-form tax filing
  • Uses units of measure that the printer uses every day

PrintSTEP offers printers the following benefits:

  • Avoidance of duplicative efforts
  • Dollar savings to the bottom line
  • Greater operational flexibility
  • Reduced administrative costs
  • Regulatory involvement proportional to environmental impact
