Superstorm Sandy Rattles Printers in the NJ/NY Area

PHILADELPHIA—Hurricane Sandy unleashed a fury of destruction on the New Jersey shore and New York City on Oct. 29-30, 2012, claiming the lives of roughly 110 people in the region, leaving millions without power and, for many, leaving homes and businesses in ruins.

The damage was catastrophic to a number of printers, who were flooded out and (as of Dec. 1) remain shut down. Others—like Design Distributors of Deer Park, NY—have opened their facilities to allow impacted printers to use their gear.
