This article discusses the potential problems faced by printing press customers by the implementation of computer integrating manufacturing (CIM) systems. The experiences of the Omaha, Nebraska-based "Omaha World-Herald" newspaper in CIM implementation are taken as examples. The benefits provided by CIM to the newspaper's printing and packaging operations are cited, as well as problems that may have to be addressed by other printing businesses contemplating the implementation of CIM.
