Paper Pricing Roll-Back

No you are not looking at a Wal-Mart add where they roll the pricing back. Actually, you are reading about the CRAZY world of thermal paper. Yesterday, on the heals of making a large price increase announcement, Hansol decided that the increase would not be passed on in the US markets. However, they are experiencing large increases in freight costs, so we will hold our breath till a later time.
