Washington

WebbMason, an integrated marketing solutions and services company headquartered in suburban Baltimore, has expanded staff in its Boston and Washington offices.

The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO), Washington, is moving the agency's email to the cloud using Microsoft Office 365. This transition will simplify the agency's IT infrastructure, gain greater functionality, and enable faster upgrades for future enhancements.

Pro Towels and Superior Decorating recently added a new multi-line representative to its team, Brad Langton. Langton will be covering the Mountain West territory of Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Utah and Wyoming.

Clashes are cropping up as 3-D printers become more affordable and websites such as Thingiverse.com post blueprints to help the machines build everything from toy tanks to replacement toaster parts. The disputes are ushering in a new era in legal skirmishes over high-tech designs, threatening a printing market that’s estimated by Wohlers Associates to surge to $10.8 billion by 2021 from $2.2 billion last year.

The U.S. Postal Service added to its losses in the second quarter and is closer to needing “extreme action” to keep it afloat, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe said.

“At some point our financial liabilities become so large that they cannot be fixed without taking extreme action,” Donahoe said at a recent board meeting in Washington. “We don’t want to get to the point where extreme action is the only option.”

WebbMason, an integrated marketing solutions and services company headquartered in suburban Baltimore, announced that Doug Traxler, chief development officer and executive vice president of sales and marketing, has been named to the board of directors for the Print Services and Distributors Association (PSDA) for 2013.
