Green Printing Solutions

Many schools will have too much wasted printing and excessive stocks of toner.  The drive to become leaner and more efficient coming, understandably, coming from the desire to save money.

Getting a clear understanding of the current costs, wastage, duplication and inefficiency is the first step and only then can a plan be made to make improvements.

Four steps to Green Print Solutions:

1.    First of all we arrange a full audit of your network of printers.  This 1-3 month snapshot will encompass all of your printers and copiers to highlight costs, volumes of use, trends, reliability and duplication.

2.    Understanding the challenges your school faces and how technology may help to improve efficiencies

3.    We then review the data to investigate areas where greater efficiency could be made, rationalisation achieved and energy use reduced.

4.    Implementation:

• Document distribution – delivering documents and faxes electronically (to cut printing, postage, energy use and speed up working times)
• Document Capture – getting paper into electronic format and integrate into business applications to make sharing easier
• Document Creation – simple printing tools to standardise drivers, reduce waste, manage colour costs and take the stress out of printing
• Document Management – easy filing, easy retrieval and automation of printing rules (mono, duplex, maximum quantities, etc)
