Unfortunately, despite the price adjustments, we are unable to ensure the profitability of our printing operation in the medium term. Pending investments for the renovation of the print web shop and production machinery are exacerbating this difficult situation.
Essential decision
In view of this, 威廉希尔体育APP_威廉希尔中文网站-下载网址 Services management and the Vice President for Infrastructure have decided, after careful consideration, to close down the ETH Zurich printing centre on the H?nggerberg campus at the end of 2024. In order to continue offering print services to ETH members, a number of follow-up solutions will be found and put in place by the start of 2025. The aim here is to retain both infrastructure and staff.
In short
- Services offered by the Print group (Print web shop / Plot on demand) will be available, in full, until replaced or taken over.
- Services offered by the Publish group (Media design / 威廉希尔体育APP_威廉希尔中文网站-下载网址 Channels) are not affected by the decision and will continue to be available as usual.
