One example of how we help with these issues is assessing your existing printer configurations and efficiencies to identify bottlenecks and waste prevention opportunities in your office workflow and reduce costs associated with excessive printing, paper and ink usage. Saving these valuable resources is just one strategy that can be installed in the workplace, creating an eco-friendly office striving to reduce the amount of electricity used by its employees per day.
The professionals at BMI + ImageNet also specialize in analyzing your printer usage to determine where inefficiencies may occur or where printers may be under or over utilized and provide solutions to repair those issues. A comprehensive printer performance report is provided that identifies actions that can be taken to save you money on printer management in a number of different ways that can reduce both your costs and your overall impact on the environment. An efficient office not only benefits your business, it benefits your world. Let’s look at two other examples of techniques used by offices practicing printer recycling and replacement.
Optimization of Print Environment
The assessment provides the blueprint, but would be useless without appropriate action. A printer that is overused and constantly in need of repair and maintenance is one example of an inefficient factor resulting in wasted time and money. BMI will provide a plan for positioning your printers effectively and provide suggestions for replacements if need be. An efficiently designed office will save electricity and supplies with a plan that ultimately reduces print spending dramatically, enough so that it will pay for itself in a year.
Monitored Support
BMI provides technical support 24/7, 365 days a year. After your printer assessment, the staff continue to make sure an efficient print environment is maintained through your business. Within this system, your printer network is monitored constantly and when a problem area threatens your network you’ll get the heads up before a situation arises. No need to panic when a printer problem arises, a phone call to BMI is all it takes to get you back on track.
Save money on energy costs
Studies show that office equipment can account for 40% of the total electricity costs of an office building. One way to achieve the goal of a green office is a printer management program that outlines procedures for managing networked printers on a daily basis, saving you an average of 31% of that electricity cost, which translates into less replacement needs.
Reduce Costs While Reducing Your Carbon Footprint
Saving electricity at the office is only one aspect of a managed efficiency plan. The benefits of becoming environmentally conscious are two-fold. As you save paper, energy and supplies it is eco-friendly but simultaneously a great way for your business to reduce spending. Many companies want to become more green but they aren’t aware of just how much a managed print plan can save valuable resources. All that wasted paper also translates into wasted toner and ink. A printer plan to monitor toner and ink usage and recycle old cartridges provides significant savings, and reduces your organization’s effect on the environment.
