The Times Republican in Marshalltown will no longer be printing any papers here in Marshalltown.  The TR has been printing paper for themselves and several other papers around Iowa for many years.  In 2014 they were printing for 65 newspapers and other publications around located in 28 different counties.  Also in 2014 they purchased a 2nd CTP (Computer to plate) machine which could output 250 plates and much more powerful than the one they had that could only do 60 plates at a time.  The printing operation has moved to Webster City and when we reached out to the Times Republican for a comment we have not heard a response.
