How To Save Money
Although copying and printing may not appear as a significant expense – it is. However, when you multiply the amount of paper used by the costs of procuring, supplying, managing and servicing document output technology – the costs become staggering. Market research confirms that copying and printing are expensive components to any corporate budget.
- Output fleets (printers, copiers, fax machines) consume up to 3% of a small or medium company's annual revenue
- The average office worker consumes $16,000 per year in document output costs
- Printers and copiers play an important role in business
- Today more than 60% of business documents originate at laser printers
To optimize your copying and printing environments, your company needs a practical, yet effective print strategy, designed to lower the cost of imaging and printing, as well as making IT tasks more manageable and boosting productivity. Developing a print management strategy begins with reviewing your current printer assets and how effectively they are deployed. Once we fully assess your situation, we will provide a detailed plan to maximize your resources.
We have evaluated the costs and productivity of your environment. Factors analyzed include:
- Current output device investment
- Average monthly page output
- Security concerns (how you plan to handle confidential documents)
- Average monthly consumable costs
- Average monthly support, service and maintenance costs
- User convenience and employee satisfaction
- User access (which devices are available to which employees)
We then create a deployment strategy ranging from individual printers to highly centralized procedures, using as many of the current printers as possible.
The idea is to save costs NOT incur costs.
Once implemented, we monitor and manage the print fleet remotely with a non-invasive print fleet management software program. The program seamlessly notifies us when you need service or any consumables (via email). It enables us to be proactive at all times, freeing your IT and purchasing departments of this burden.
