With the New Year approaching, new business possibilities should be considered to optimize your workflows and profits. Practical office solutions can prepare a business for the coming New Year and all the promise it holds for growth.
Laser printers are a good place to start when trying to lower overhead, without harming productivity or needing major reorganizations in workflow. Between 1 and 3 percent of office revenue is estimated to be spent on print costs annually. Optimizing your print environment as much as possible can reduce this cost by as much as 42 percent while actually increasing productivity. That translates to significant measurable reductions in overhead costs!
Your company image is reflected with each document that is released. Keeping that image professional and sending the correct message is a significant concern and cost. Using the latest multifunction systems to create and manage documents in both colour and black & white will increase retention, improve brand recognition, and leave a positive professional image. The best part is that these systems are no more expensive to own than a black & white, single function system.
Enhanced network security has become a prime concern for most businesses in today’s commercial climate. Surprisingly, printers may be one of the greatest security risks a company could have. Tracking print usage can alert a company to the possibility of an employee who is printing sensitive corporate information. Documents can also be stolen from a network printer before the intended user retrieves it. These risks can be mitigated with secure print solutions.
Printer support can be up to 50 percent of IT support costs. Network technicians are often used to solve issues such as empty toner alerts, incorrect drivers, error codes, and jammed paper alerts. Support costs can be minimized by using Print Management solutions for helpdesk and on-site support to printers. This will free up a company IT department and resources to focus on more critical and time-sensitive initiatives.
