Printing for a Higher Cause
The Our Lady of Spring Bank Abbey near Sparta is now more commonly known as the home of the Laser Monks.
The small brotherhood fell into the printer ink and toner business when they went to purchase printing cartridges for their laser printer.
Since then, business manager Sarah Caniglia says they’ve expanded into “green printing” – carrying soy based inks, which Caniglia says is a sustainable resource. Furthermore the inks don’t contain any petroleum products.
Caniglia admits that all abbeys are self-sustaining, but she says Sparta’s abbey is a bit hipper than most with their toner and ink business.
