Going Green With Managed Print Services
By definition, printing uses a lot of resources--including paper and ink. As such, it's easy to think your print environment can only ever be bad news for the environment. Luckily, when managed print services is around, that's not the case.
The truth is that managed print services can help your company do more good for the environment. It's not just about printing less; it's about printing in smarter ways and using techniques that protect the environment and your bottom line at the same time.
Here are a few examples:
Getting Smart About Toner
Your managed print services provider can help you find and utilize a local toner recycling facility--which means you won't have to toss those empty cartridges in the trash. Additionally, you can work with your provider to order recycled cartridges that fit your printer makes and models, helping cut down on even more waste.
Printing When Necessary
Managed print services doesn't stop you from printing. It just helps you be more mindful when you do print. That means establishing print rules and implementing digital communication solutions that provide alternatives without completely eliminating your ability to use the printers.
Using Machine Settings
Most printers come with efficiency settings, but not all of them are default. With help from your managed print provider, you can learn exactly what your machines offer and how to take advantage of it. For example, you might set double-sided printing as a default setting so every print job results in less waste.
Conclusion
