Xerox to close OC toner operation
OKLAHOMA
CITY  – Xerox Corp. has announced plans to shut down its toner
manufacturing operation in Oklahoma City and eliminate about 100 jobs
by the end of the year.The plant will continue producing raw materials
for mono and color toners and parts for other Xerox products.

The plant has about 170 employees.
Xerox
spokesman Bill McKee says the downsizing is part of a companywide
restructuring plan announced 10 days ago that will eliminate 3,000 jobs
worldwide.McKee says the need for the traditional black toner produced
in Oklahoma City has decreased as more customers turn to color printing
and new equipment uses different toners.
