Unmeasured Expenses – Research reveals that 1-3% of a company’s annual revenue is consumed with office printing. When it comes to office laser printing, most companies have no idea how much they are spending. Printer supplies are only part of the equation. In fact, one recent study showed that for every dollar spent on printer hardware and supplies, another $1.50 was spent supporting the process. These costs include parts and repair, help desk support, supply management, power consumption, and vendor management. We can measure your total cost of ownership so you can understand your actual expense.

Unmanaged Inventories – Individual departments buy expensive printer cartridges that often cost $100 or more. These purchases get buried in office supply budgets. Not wanting to run out, users often order multiple cartridges. As a results, it is common to find office supply closets stashed with thousands of dollars in unmanaged assets. Even worse, many of these cartridges get stolen, ending up on sites like ebay. We can manage your supply inventories to remove that risk.

Unnecessary IT Distraction – Costly IT professionals get called when the printers break. This is like a hospital administrator telling a heart surgeon to go change bed sheets. Unlike most ID problems that can be handled remotely, printer problems require on site support. They go on site and change the printer cartridge or remove a paper jam to try to fix the problem. When that doesn’t work, they turn around and call an outside company to fix the problems. We can provide help desk support and on site service for your printers so your IT people can focus on their core projects.
