                          TITLE I: DEFINITIONS

                                ----------

  1-1. Printing.--The term ``printing'' as used in these regulations 
shall be construed to include and apply to the processes of 
composition, platemaking, presswork, binding, and microform; the 
equipment as classified in the tables in Title II and used in such 
processes; or the end items produced by such processes and equipment.

  1-2. Composition.--Composition as used in these regulations applies 
to the setting of type by hot-metal casting, phototypesetting, or 
electronic character generating devices for the purpose of producing 
camera copy, negatives, a plate or image to be used in the production 
of printing or microform.

  1-3. Microform.--The term ``microform,'' as used in these 
regulations, applies to any product, produced in miniaturized image 
format, for mass or general distribution and as a substitute for 
conventionally printed material, but not including microfilming of 
administrative records, accounting reports, or similar items.

  2-1. Duplicating/Copying.--The term ``duplicating/copying'' as used 
in these regulations means that material produced by use of (a) 
equipment listed in column 2 of the equipment tables and (b) 
duplicating equipment employing the lithographic process; and automatic 
copy-processing or copier-duplicating machines employing electrostatic, 
thermal, or other copying processes: Provided, That work exceeding 
5,000 production units of any one page, and work exceeding 25,000 
production units in the aggregate of multiple pages, shall not be done 
without prior authority of: (a) the Central Printing and Publications 
Management Organization as provided in paragraph 30 of these 
regulations; or (b) the Joint Committee on Printing.

  2-2. A report shall be forwarded to the Committee not later than 30 
days after the close of each quarter, listing individual jobs by title, 
quantity (pages and copies), date, and where done, which exceed either 
the 5,000 or 25,000 production units.

  2-3. Microform Duplicating.--The term ``Microform Duplicating,'' as 
used in these regulations, means the production of not more than 250 
duplicates from original microform, as defined in paragraph 7-2.

  3. Department.--The term ``department'', as used in these 
regulations, means any executive or military department or independent 
agency and temporary or permanent committees and commissions of the 
Government.

  4-1. Printing Plant.--The term ``printing plant,'' as used in these 
regulations, means any plant which produces ``printing'' as defined in 
paragraph 1, owned or operated wholly or in part by the Government or 
at Government expense, and shall include all such plants located on 
property owned or controlled by the Government. No printing plant shall 
be operated without prior authorization of the Joint Committee on 
Printing. No plant shall be moved from the building in which it was 
authorized for operation, or disestablished, without prior authority of 
the committee. No printing plant may be operated by a commercial 
contractor without prior approval of the Joint Committee on Printing.

  4-2. Authorized plants shall be equipped to produce only that work 
which is not deemed to be commercially procurable. All work that can be 
procured within the necessary time constraints, except as provided in 
paragraph 49-2 of these regulations, will be forwarded to the 
Government Printing Office or its Regional Printing Procurement Office, 
as the case may be, for commercial procurement under contracts 
established for that purpose. Departments are required to solicit the 
opinion of the GPO as to the procurability of their individual printing 
requirements.

  4-3. Map and Chart Printing Plants.--These plants are authorized to 
produce multicolor flat and/or folded maps and charts without referral 
to GPO procurement offices. In-house production, however, is limited to 
maps and charts, with all other supporting publications to be procured 
commercially through the GPO unless otherwise authorized by the Joint 
Committee on Printing. Only those departments which are authorized to 
operate map and chart printing plants have the option to procure map 
and chart work directly from commercial sources or through GPO 
procurement offices.

  5. Government Printing Office Regional Printing Procurement Office 
(GPO-RPPO).--This term means any office, established by the Public 
Printer in accordance with Joint Committee on Printing authorization, 
which shall procure Federal printing needs which are determined to be 
commercially procurable. Except for orders submitted to the GPO Central 
Office and those placed by departments on direct-deal contracts 
authorized by GPO, all orders must be forwarded to the nearest GPO-
RPPO. The GPO-RPPO will determine the area of bid competition, 
considering all factors, including lead-time and transportation costs.

  6. Federal Printing.--This term means all printing as defined in 
paragraph 1 for the use of all departments, irrespective of the place 
of production or procurement origin or ultimate end-use. Determination 
as to where Federal printing is to be requisitioned shall be made by 
the head of each department through a central printing and publications 
management service, as defined in paragraph 30, in accordance with the 
collective provisions provided in paragraphs 4, 5, 28, and 46.

  7-1. Production Unit.--A production unit means one sheet, size 8\1/2\ 
x 11 inches (215 x 280 mm), one side only, one color.

  7-2. Microform Production Unit.--A production unit for microform, for 
the purposes of these regulations, is defined as one roll of microfilm 
100 feet in length or one microfiche.

  7-3. All production from presses of whatever size shall be computed 
on the basis of the unit size of press multiplied by the number of 
impressions obtained from the individual press concerned. For example:

                                      Units

  9. Equipment: Purchase, Rental, or Transfer.--Procedure for the 
purchase, rental, or transfer of printing, binding, and related or 
auxiliary equipment, as listed in columns 1 and 2 of the four tables in 
paragraph 8, shall be as follows:

    (a)  The purchase, rental, or transfer of column 1 items require 
           prior approval of the Joint Committee on Printing. All 
           requests for prior approval of the committee to acquire 
           equipment shall contain justification for its need, name and 
           location of installation where needed, size (11- by 17-inch 
           presses must show unit or plate image size), and shall be 
           submitted in duplicate.
    (b)  Purchase requests must show make (or equal) and estimated 
           cost, together with expected trade-in allowance, if 
           applicable; transfer requests must show make, age, 
           condition, serial number, and estimated value; and rental 
           requests must show make (or equal), and rental cost. When 
           any transaction requiring prior approval of the Joint 
           Committee on Printing has been completed, the committee 
           shall be immediately notified thereof on form accompanying 
           the authorization.
    (c)  Joint Committee on Printing authorizations to purchase, rent 
           or transfer equipment, except as otherwise provided as a 
           part of the approval, are void after one year unless 
           completed by action, or by obligation of funds.
    (d)  Requests for authority to rent equipment, unless otherwise 
           indicated, will be considered to be lease-purchase or 
           purchase option arrangements. Until equipment is purchased, 
           such authorizations will be subject to renewal annually.
    (e)  The JCP approval number on all purchase and rental actions 
           shall be cited on all advertisements and procurement 
           documents which are related to the acquisition of JCP 
           controlled equipment.

  10. Equipment, Disposal of Excess.--Procedure for disposing of 
printing equipment determined by each department to be excess to its 
needs is as follows:

    (a)  All items listed in columns 1 and 2 of paragraph 8 which are 
           used in an authorized printing plant may be disposed of in 
           accordance with existing Government surplus property 
           disposal procedures without reference to the committee. 
           Equipment disposals shall be reported to the committee on 
           JCP Form No. 7 within 30 days after completion of the 
           disposal action (cf. United States Code, Title 44, section 
           312).
    (b)  To estimate the value of printing equipment:
        (1) Determine the normal life expectancy according to table I. 
              (Page 30.)
        (2) Select the applicable condition in table 11 (page 31), 
              column A, the normal life in column B, and (reading to 
              the right) under C, the percentage.
        (3) Multiply the original cost of the equipment by the 
              percentage.

  11. New Processes.--Frequently there appear upon the market certain 
types of printing, binding, and related or auxiliary equipment 
utilizing newly developed or improved processes or new principles of 
operation. Before any such equipment is acquired, which will be used as 
a substitute for those processes described in paragraph 1, Joint 
Committee on Printing prior approval is required and departments shall 
provide the committee with all available information pertaining 
thereto. (Please see Joint Committee on Printing letters of February 
15, 1979, on p. 57, and October 19, 1989, on p. 64).

  12. Research and Development.--The Committee shall be advised and 
shall be supplied with all available data pertaining to departmental 
plans to engage in applied research and/or development which may affect 
printing, binding and related or auxiliary fields, contractually or 
otherwise. Such advice and data will be supplied the committee prior to 
the establishment of any contracts or the advertisement of requests for 
proposals. In addition, if printing or related equipment is required in 
conjunction with such research or as a result of the research, prior 
approval of the committee is necessary before procurement.
    

                     TITLE III: GENERAL PROVISIONS

                                ----------

  13. Advertisements, Commercial.--No Government publication or other 
Government printed matter, prepared or produced with either 
appropriated or nonappropriated funds or identified with an activity of 
the Government, shall contain any advertisement inserted by or for any 
private individual, firm, or corporation; or contain material which 
implies in any manner that the Government endorses or favors any 
specific commercial product, commodity, or service.

  The Committee is of the opinion that commercial advertising is not a 
proper or authorized function of the Government. Such advertisements 
are unfair to those who do not so advertise in that, whether 
intentionally or not, they are frequently made to appear to have the 
sanction of the Government. Furthermore, the publication of such 
advertisements is unjust to the public in that the advertisers profit 
thereby at the expense of the Government, particularly as a 
considerable number of the publications are circulated free, at least 
in part, under Government frank. Advertising in Government publications 
is also unfair to the publishers of other periodicals in that they 
generally cannot meet such competition, owing to the great advantage 
possessed by a Government publication. Another reason for objecting is 
that advertisers are apt to use Government periodicals for the purpose 
of currying favor with the officers issuing the same or the special 
class among whom such publications are circulated. This is a temptation 
that the Government ought not to encourage.

  14. Art Signatures.--When the size of signatures on freehand art is 
out of proportion or relation to the design, the copy is unacceptable 
and shall not be printed unless the signature is removed or 
sufficiently reduced in size. Signatures of technical illustrators, 
designers, typographers, or layout artists shall not be printed.

  15. Courtesy Credit Lines.--Courtesy credit lines are permissible 
only for uncopyrighted materials contributed or loaned by 
nongovernmental parties. They shall be subordinate in size of type to 
that of both text and legends for illustrations. When all materials 
have come from a single nongovernmental source, credit lines shall be 
given only in an undisplayed paragraph.

  16-1. Publication Bylines.--The printing of Government employees' 
bylines in Government publications shall be confined to the authors of 
the articles appearing therein, and to the photographers who have 
originated the pictures contained therein. The authors' and 
photographers' bylines shall be printed in exact juxtaposition with the 
articles or pictures which they have created.

  16-2. Publication Mastheads.--The printed mastheads of Government 
publications shall include the name of the publishing department or 
agency and its issuing bureau, branch, or office, together with the 
names of the department or agency head and the head of the issuing 
bureau, branch, or office. Additional names shall include only the 
names of the executive or managing editor, sports editor, feature 
editor, photo editor, and art editor, or their editorial equivalent 
officers by whatever title they are identified, unless otherwise 
authorized by the Joint Committee on Printing.

  17. Copyright Notices.--Copyright notices shall be subordinated in 
size of type to that of both text and legends for llustrations. When 
privately copyrighted material is reprinted in a Government 
publication, notice of copyright is essential in order that the public 
not be misled.

  18-1. Color Printing.--The committee recognizes that printing in two 
or more colors generally increases costs. Consequently, it is the 
responsibility of the head of any department, independent office or 
establishment of the Government to assure that all multicolor printing 
shall contribute demonstrable value toward achieving a greater 
fulfillment of the ultimate end-purpose of whatever printed item in 
which it is included.

  18-2. Demonstrably valuable multicolor printing, for the purpose of 
these regulations, includes the following categories:

    (a)  Maps and technical diagrams where additional color is 
           necessary for clarity.
    (b)  Object identification (medical specimens, diseases, plants, 
           flags, uniforms, etc.).
    (c)  Safety programs, fire prevention, savings bonds programs, and 
           competitive areas of personnel recruiting.
    (d)  Areas wherein clearly identifiable savings in costs can be 
           soundly predicated on multicolor use.
    (e)  Printing for programs required by law, whose relative success 
           or failure is in direct ratio to the degree of public 
           response, and where that response can be logically 
           attributable to the number of colors planned and the manner 
           in which they are proposed to be used.
    (f)  Color for promotional or motivational purposes such as 
           programs concerning public health, safety, consumer 
           benefits; or to encourage utilization of Government 
           facilities such as programs for Social Security, Medicare, 
           and certain areas of need for veterans would come within 
           this category.

  18-3. Multicolor printing which does not meet the demonstrably 
valuable contribution requirement of these regulations, includes but is 
not exclusively limited to the following categories:

    (a)  Printed items wherein additional color is used primarily for 
           decorative effect.
    (b)  Printed items where additional color is used primarily in lieu 
           of effective layout and design.
    (c)  Printed items where additional color is used excessively, 
           i.e., four colors when two or three will fulfill the need; 
           three colors when two are adequate; two colors when one is 
           adequate.
    (d)  Printed items wherein the inclusion of multicolor does not 
           reflect careful, competent advanced planning which 
           recognizes the contribution the use of color is expected to 
           make to the ultimate end-purpose.

  19. Illustrations.--Illustrations are to be used in Government 
printed matter only when they:

    (a)  Relate entirely to the transaction of public business, and are 
           in the public interest.
    (b)  Relate directly to the subject matter and are necessary to 
           explain the text.
    (c)  Do not serve to aggrandize any individual.
    (d)  Are in good taste and do not offend proper sensibilities.
    (e)   Are restricted to the minimum size necessary to accomplish 
           their purpose.
    (f)  Illustrate employees actually engaged in an act or service 
           related to their official duties.

  20. Cards: Calling, Greeting.--Printing or engraving of calling or 
greeting cards is considered to be personal rather than official and 
shall not be done at Government expense.

  21. Blank Books.--Blank books not available through General Services 
Administration but regularly carried in stock by commercial dealers and 
which require no printing and/or binding operation after receipt of 
order may be procured without obtaining a waiver from the Government 
Printing Office: Provided, That no order or orders for each type of 
blank book exceeds $500 in any one year.

  22-1. Calendars, Date: Desk and Wall.--Standardized Government desk 
and wall calendars are the only calendars which departments are 
authorized to obtain at Government expense, and shall be ordered from 
the General Services Administration.

  22-2. Style, size, and format of the standardized wall calendar, to 
be procured from the Government Printing Office, shall be subject to 
approval of the Joint Committee on Printing.

  Schedule and appointment sheets are not considered to be calendars.

  23. Certificate of Necessity.--Section 1103, title 44, United States 
Code:

  When a department, the Supreme Court, or the Library of Congress 
requires printing or binding to be done, it shall certify that it is 
necessary for the public service. . . .

  24-1. Correspondence and Liaison With Committee.--All official 
correspondence for the consideration of the Joint Committee on Printing 
is to be signed by the head of the department or an official designated 
by him. The Committee shall be notified in writing by the head of the 
department of any official so designated.

  In order to ensure prompt delivery, all official correspondence 
should be addressed as follows:

            Chairman, Joint Committee on Printing
            U.S. Senate Post Office
            Washington, DC 20510-6606

  24-2. All matters pertaining to printing (composition, platemaking, 
presswork, binding, and microform), and the distribution of printed 
matter, shall be referred to the Committee by and through one 
designated source in each department.

  25. Form and Style of Work for Departments.--The head of each 
department shall cause printing and binding for general use to be 
standardized. With respect to printing which is requisitioned from the 
Government Printing Office, attention is again directed to section 
1105, title 44, United States Code, which provides that--

  The Public Printer shall determine the form and style in which the 
printing or binding ordered by a department is executed, and the 
material and the size of type used, having proper regard to economy, 
workmanship, and the purposes for which the work is needed.

The Government Printing Office Style Manual, approved by the Joint 
Committee on Printing, was specifically compiled and published to meet 
the requirements of this law. It is the opinion of the committee that 
deviations therefrom generally constitute a waste in public printing 
and binding.

  26-1. Forms, Standard, Approval and Procurement of.--Standard forms 
are subject to the approval of the General Services Administration, or, 
in certain cases, the General Accounting Office or other responsible 
agency.

  26-2. Stock standard forms shall be obtained from the Federal Supply 
Service (FSS) unless otherwise authorized by the General Services 
Administration. Deviations from stock standard forms shall be submitted 
to the FSS for approval prior to procurement through the Government 
Printing Office.

  27-1. Journals, Magazines, Periodicals, and Similar Publications.--
The committee invites attention to section 1108, title 44, United 
States Code, relating to periodicals which reads as follows:

  The head of an executive department, independent agency or 
establishment of the Government, with the approval of the President, 
may use from the appropriations available for printing and binding such 
sums as are necessary for the printing of journals, magazines, 
periodicals, and similar publications he certifies in writing to be 
necessary in the transaction of the public business required by law of 
the department, office, or establishment. There may be printed, in 
addition to those necessary for the public business, not to exceed two 
thousand copies for free distribution by the issuing department, 
office, or establishment. The Public Printer, subject to regulation by 
the Joint Committee on Printing, shall print additional copies required 
for sale to the public by the Superintendent of Documents; but the 
printing of these additional copies may not interfere with the prompt 
execution of printing for the Government.

  27-2. The term ``journals, magazines, periodicals, and similar 
publications'', as used in above section, shall be construed as not 
applying to strictly administrative reports, memoranda, and similar 
materials, or to strictly statistical materials, and information 
required exclusively for the official use of the issuing office or 
service in the transaction of its routine business. Such information 
shall be construed as being required exclusively for the use of the 
issuing office or service in the transaction of its routine business if 
not more than 2,000 copies, or not more than 10 percent of the total 
quantity printed, whichever is lesser, are for free distribution to 
other than the issuing department, office, or establishment, its 
official established auxiliary organizations, and other individuals and 
organizations required to be kept informed in the transaction of the 
routine business of the department, office, or establishment.

  28. Legal Requirements.--Sections 501 and 502, title 44, United 
States Code:

  Sec. 501. All printing, binding, and blank-book work for Congress, 
the Executive Office, the Judiciary, other than the Supreme Court of 
the United States, and every executive department, independent office 
and establishment of the Government, shall be done at the Government 
Printing Office, except--
      (1) classes of work the Joint Committee on Printing considers to 
    be urgent or necessary to have done elsewhere; and
      (2) printing in field printing plants operated by an executive 
    department, independent office or establishment, and the 
    procurement of printing by an executive department, independent 
    office or establishment from allotments for contract field 
    printing, if approved by the Joint Committee on Printing.
  Printing or binding may be done at the Government Printing Office 
only when authorized by law.
   Sec. 502. Printing, binding, and blank-book work authorized by law, 
which the Public Printer is not able or equipped to do at the 
Government Printing Office, may be produced elsewhere under contracts 
made by him with the approval of the Joint Committee on Printing.

  29. Legality and Necessity.--No printing, binding, or blank-book work 
shall be done at the Government Printing Office or at any other 
printing or binding office, plant, or school of the Government unless 
authorized by law. (See secs. 501 and 1123, title 44, U.S.C.) All 
printed matter issued shall be devoted to the work which the branch or 
officer of the Government issuing the same is required by law to 
undertake, and shall not contain matter which is unnecessary in the 
transaction of the public business or matter relating to work which any 
other branch of the Government service is authorized to perform. (See 
secs. 1102, 1113, and 1118, title 44, U.S.C.)

  30. Central Printing and Publications Management Organization.--Heads 
of departments shall maintain under their direct supervision a central 
printing and publications management organization with responsibility 
for the conduct of a coordinated program controlling the development, 
production, procurement or distribution of materials through the 
utilization of conventional printing and binding methods or through the 
utilization of multiple copy microform methods. The central printing 
and publications management organization also will maintain 
responsibility and control of duplicating equipment and automatic copy-
processing or copier-duplicating machines, as identified in column 2 of 
the equipment tables. (Please see Joint Committee on Printing letter of 
February 15, 1979, on p. 57.)

  31. Mailing Lists.--All departments shall make necessary revisions in 
their mailing lists at least once each year in order to eliminate waste 
in Government funds caused by publications being improperly addressed 
or mailed to persons no longer desiring them. This method of revision 
shall require that persons receiving publications indicate that they 
wish to continue receiving the publication. Failure to reply to a 
mailing list revision request shall require the elimination of the 
addressee from the mailing list unless it is necessary in the conduct 
of official business to continue mailing publications to the addressee. 
It is the judgment of the Joint Committee on Printing that the use of 
titles on mailing lists in lieu of names will reduce the cost of list 
maintenance.

  32. Mailing: Self-Mailer Technique.--The penalty or postage indicia 
and mailing address shall be imprinted directly upon printed materials 
rather than using separate envelopes for mailing whenever such 
technique will prove feasible and economical, and in accordance with 
existing postal regulations.

  33. Neglect, Delay, Duplication, or Waste.--The attention of the 
Committee should be promptly called to ``any neglect, delay, 
duplication, or waste in the public printing and binding and the 
distribution of Government publications.''

  34-1. Paper, Standardization of.--The Committee invites attention to 
section 509, title 44, United States Code, relating to standards of 
paper, which reads as follows:

  The Joint Committee on Printing shall fix upon standards of paper for 
the different descriptions of public printing and binding, and the 
Public Printer, under their direction, shall advertise in six 
newspapers or trade journals, published in different cities, for sealed 
proposals to furnish the Government with paper, as specified in the 
schedule to be furnished applicants by the Public Printer, setting 
forth in detail the quality and quantities required for the public 
printing. The Public Printer shall furnish samples of the standard of 
papers fixed upon to applicants who desire to bid.

  34-2. The ``Government Paper Specification Standards'' establishes 
specification standards of paper for the public printing and binding 
for the U.S. Government, including paper to be used on copying and 
duplicating devices as defined in paragraph 2. Unless otherwise 
authorized by the Joint Committee on Printing, these specifications and 
standards are mandatory for use by the departments of the Government in 
the preparation of procurement documents for paper stocks and in 
specifying paper stocks to be used in printing, binding, or 
duplicating. It is the opinion of the Committee that types, grades, or 
weights, other than those given under these standards generally 
constitute waste in public printing, and it is directed that the 
procurement or use of such paper types, grades, or weights, for 
printing, binding, or duplicating be discontinued.

  34-3. Semiannual and annual contracts for paper, in general, are not 
in the best interests of the Government. Such procurement practices 
should be used only when savings in costs are clearly demonstrable.

  34-4. The Public Printer is authorized and directed to furnish at 
cost to the departments such copies of these standards, and standard 
samples, as they may require in the transaction of the public business.

  35-1. Printing Requirements Resulting From Contracts for Equipment 
and Services.--The Joint Committee on Printing does not intend that 
contractors shall become prime or substantial sources of printing for 
departments or agencies. Therefore, the inclusion of printing, as 
defined in paragraph 1, within contracts for the manufacture and/or 
operation of equipment and for services such as architectural, 
engineering, and research, is prohibited unless authorized by the Joint 
Committee on Printing.

  35-2. This regulation does not preclude the procurement of writing, 
editing, preparation of manuscript copy, or preparation of related 
illustrative material as a part of contracts; or administrative 
printing, e.g., forms and instructional materials necessary to be used 
by the contractor to respond to the terms of a contract. Nor does it 
preclude recording manuscript copy in digital form for typesetting 
purposes provided coding instructions have been approved by the Central 
Printing and Publications Management Office. However, the printing of 
such material for the Government must be accomplished in accordance 
with printing laws and regulations.

  35-3. A requirement for a contractor to duplicate less than 5,000 
units of only one page, or less than 25,000 units in the aggregate of 
multiple pages for the use of a department or agency, will not be 
deemed to be printing primarily or substantially for a department or 
agency. For the purpose of this paragraph, such pages may not exceed a 
maximum image size of 10\3/4\ by 14\1/4\ inches.

  35-4. A requirement for a contractor to produce or procure less than 
250 duplicates from original microform, as defined in paragraph 7-2, 
will not be deemed to be printing primarily or substantially for a 
department or agency.

  36-1. Printing Requirements Resulting From Grants.--The Joint 
Committee on Printing does not intend that grantees shall become prime 
or substantial sources of printing for the use of departments and 
agencies. Therefore, the inclusion of printing, as defined in paragraph 
1, within grants is prohibited unless authorized by the Joint Committee 
on Printing.

  36-2. This regulation does not preclude--

    (a)  The issuance of grants by any department or agency for the 
           support of nongovernment publications, provided such grants 
           were issued pursuant to an authorization of law and were not 
           made primarily or substantially for the purpose of having 
           material printed for the use of any department or agency.
    (b)  The publication of findings by grantees within the terms of 
           their grants provided that such publication is not primarily 
           or substantially for the purpose of having such findings 
           printed for the use of a department or agency.
    (c)  The initiation by departments and agencies of the procurement 
           of writing, editing, preparation of manuscript copy, or 
           preparation of related illustrative material from grantees; 
           or the administrative printing requirements of the grantee 
           required to respond to the terms of the grant. Nor does it 
           preclude recording manuscript copy in digital form for 
           typesetting purposes provided coding instructions have been 
           approved by the Central Printing and Publications Management 
           Office. However, the printing of such material for the 
           Government must be accomplished in accordance with printing 
           laws and regulations.

  36-3. A requirement for a grantee to duplicate less than 5,000 units 
of only one page, or less than 25,000 units in the aggregate of 
multiple pages of his findings for the use of a department or agency, 
will not be deemed to be printing primarily or substantially for a 
department or agency. For the purpose of this paragraph, such pages may 
not exceed a maximum image size of 10\3/4\ by 14\1/4\ inches.

  36-4. A requirement for a grantee to produce or procure less than 250 
duplicates from original microform, as defined in paragraph 7-2, will 
not be deemed to be printing primarily or substantially for a 
department or agency.

  37. Private or Commercial Work.--No work of a private or commercial 
nature may be accomplished at any Government plant even though the 
Government is reimbursed therefor. (See secs. 1102 and 1118, title 44, 
U.S.C.)

  38. Publications, by Private Publishers.--When a department uses 
appropriated funds to create information for publication, the printing 
and binding of that information is subject to the provisions of 
sections 103 and 501 of title 44, United States Code, and it shall not 
be made available to a private publisher for initial publication 
without the prior approval of the Joint Committee on Printing.

  39-1. Publications, Free Distribution of.--Departments shall not make 
free distribution of any publication to any private individual or 
private organization in quantities exceeding 50 copies without prior

bedistributed is less than $100.

  39-2. Requests for Committee approval shall list the name of the 
publication, the name of the person or organization desiring the same, 
and the number of copies desired.

  39-3. This restriction includes the free distribution in bulk of any

  40. Publications, Identification of.--All documents and publications 
printed at Government expense shall have printed thereon the name of 
the branch, bureau, department, or office of the Government responsible 
for publishing the same, the date of issuance, the title, subtitle, and

  41-1. Publications, Sale of by Superintendent of Documents.--The 
Superintendent of Documents will sell only those publications printed 
by the Government Printing Office or ordered printed through the 
Government Printing Office or the Government Printing Office Regional 
Printing Procurement Offices. This restriction on sale shall not affect 
the continued Catalog listing by the Superintendent of Documents of 
publications which are not printed by or ordered printed through the 
Government Printing Office. Nothing in this paragraph shall be 
construed as modifying or repealing provisions of sections 1702, 1711, 
and 1720 of title 44, United States Code.

  41-2. Section 1902, title 44, United States Code provides:

  Government publications, except those determined by their issuing 
components to be required for official use only or for strictly 
administrative or operational purposes which have no public interest or 
educational value and publications classified for reasons of national 
security, shall be made available to depository libraries through the 
facilities of the Superintendent of Documents for public information. 
Each component of the Government shall furnish the Superintendent of 
Documents a list of such publications it issued during the previous 
month, that were obtained from sources other than the Government 
Printing Office.

To meet the requirement of Monthly Catalog listing of Government 
publications by the Superintendent of Documents, each agency printing 
officer shall forward two copies of those types of Government 
publications cited in section 1902, title 44, United States Code, which 
are produced or procured through other than GPO sources to the 
Director, Library Programs Service (SL), Government Printing Office, 
Washington, DC 20401.

  42. Responsibility for Application and Enforcement of Regulations.--
The head of each department is responsible for the application and 
enforcement of these regulations and other applicable regulations and 
legislative provisions. (Please see Joint Committee on Printing letter 
of February 15, 1979, on p. 57.)

  43-1. Stationery, Embossed.--The Public Printer may furnish, upon 
requisition, to the President of the United States, members of his 
Cabinet, and the Department of State (for diplomatic correspondence 
exclusively), such quantities of embossed stationery as may be 
necessary for official use. The Comptroller General, the Librarian of 
Congress, the Public Printer, the head of each permanent commission, 
independent establishment or board, and the judges of the U.S. Courts 
may requisition embossed noteheads or letterheads not to exceed 5,000 
copies in the aggregate, and envelopes therefor in any one fiscal year: 
Provided, That greater quantities may be furnished upon the approval of 
the Joint Committee on Printing. The Public Printer shall not honor 
requests from any Government activity for embossing second sheets or 
other than standard-size envelopes. No embossed stationery other than 
listed above shall be produced or procured at Government expense unless 
authorized by the Joint Committee on Printing.

  43-2. The provisions apply also to thermographic printing.

  44. Stationery, Personalized.--The printing of names of officers or 
officials of the executive or judicial branches of the Government on 
official stationery and preprinted mastheads may be accomplished only 
after approval by the Joint Committee on Printing. Addresses and 
telephone numbers should be omitted in order to allow greater 
distribution and prevent the creation of ``frozen'' stocks frequently 
caused by changes. The Committee directs that no personalized second 
sheets shall be produced or procured at Government expense.

  45. Stationery: Sizes, Quality, Weight, Printing Thereon, etc.--The 
Committee directs attention to the Federal Property Management 
Regulation which prescribes standards (sizes, grades and weights of 
paper, and colors of ink and paper) to be used for printing stationery 
and envelopes for official Government correspondence.

  46-1. Waiver, Purchase of Printing by.--Section 504, title 44, United 
States Code provides:

  The Joint Committee on Printing may permit the Public Printer to 
authorize an executive department, independent office, or establishment 
of the Government to purchase direct for its use such printing, 
binding, and blank-book work, otherwise authorized by law, as the 
Government Printing Office is not able or suitably equipped to execute 
or as may be more economically or in the better interest of the 
Government executed elsewhere.

  46-2. Pursuant to the above, the Public Printer is permitted to 
return to any department of the Government any written requisition for 
printing, binding, and blank-book work, otherwise authorized by law, as 
in his opinion he is neither able nor suitably equipped to execute or 
which may be more economically, or in the better interest of the 
Government, procured elsewhere than at the Government Printing Office 
or one of the Government Printing Office Regional Printing Procurement 
Offices. In all such instances he is hereby permitted to authorize such 
Government activity to procure the work direct from other sources. Such 
waiver, when granted, shall not be construed as an exemption from the 
provisions of these regulations. Upon all such returned requisitions 
the Public Printer shall endorse a statement that the action taken is 
in accordance with the provisions of section 504, title 44, United 
States Code.

  46-3. All procurement by waiver must be identified by number and date 
of issuance and reported on JCP Form No. 2, ``Commercial Printing 
Report.''

  46-4. No department requisitioning printing from the Government 
Printing Office or one of the Government Printing Office Regional 
Printing Procurement Offices shall anticipate the release of any 
requisition for direct procurement, until so advised by the Public 
Printer.

  47. Printing Facilities of Federal Prison Industries, Inc.--These 
facilities may be used for the production of unclassified printing. 
Printing services are available at the following seven locations \2\ 
and may be used by sending a purchase order direct to any one of them:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

        \2\ Since the printing of the 1977 regulations, one plant was 
deauthorized, and six were added to the Federal Prisons Industries, 
Inc. There is a printing plant in Ashland, KY, but it is for training 
only.
