Printer Management

 

 

 

 

Actively managing printing within an organization can have a significant impact on bottom-line profitability.

 

Management can include:

• Eliminating printer sprawl. Having multiple printers, often of different makes and models, increases the amount of different toner and ink jet cartridges needed in stock.

• Even though lower end ink jet printers are dirt cheap they are prone to break more often, increasing your service costs. In many situations it is cheaper to buy a new printer than to repair a broken one.

• Using Scan routing software to route scans to various destinations including fax servers, network folders and email.

• Creating access lists on higher end printers that limit printing in color to certain people or groups.

• Monitoring purchases by department to track who is using large amounts of paper, toner or service calls.
