Preparing Your Copy Job

Getting Ready

Sufficient planning time is required to insure quality and to expedite the actual reproduction to meet your completion deadlines. The final reproduced copy requires that you plan your printing needs for the most effective and efficient duplication method. For all duplication jobs, use of duplex (2 sided) copying is strongly encouraged to increase Downstate's sustainability program in all copying. The completed job is an important reflection of you, your department, as well as Downstate Health Sciences University. Therefore the original material provided by the customer needs to be of the highest possible quality. Use only approved logo's: Communications and Marketing webpage(link).
