Report of Independent Public Accountants with Respect to Financial Statement
Schedule

We have audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
Unites States, the consolidated financial statements of Wallace Computer
Services, Inc. included in this Form 10-K, and have issued our report thereon
dated September 11, 2000. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. This schedule
listed in the accompanying index is the responsibility of the Company's
management and is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic consolidated financial
statements. The financial statement schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and, in
our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data required
to be set forth therein in relation to the consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole.
