I have forwarded your question to the Printech listserv.

You might be interested to know that PNEAC, FTA and EPA will be 
co-sponsoring a national videoconference presenting practical P2 strategies 
for flexographic printers April 27, 2000.  A downlink site is available in 
Quebec.  See http://www.pneac.org/vc00/.
