What kind of managed print support do you need for your Charlotte business? If you’re not sure, we recommend a no-obligation assessment of all your devices as a starting point. It’s the best first step to successful print management outsourcing and solving these common problems:

• Unmanaged print = unmanaged expense
• Runaway printers and pages
• Too many vendors, makes and models
• Unresponsive service and onsite support
• Concerns about printer security

How Managed Print Adds Business Value

Do you have a fleet of laser printers? By fleet, we mean at least 10 laser printers. If you have a fleet of laser printers, then this could be an area of business uncertainty when it comes to costs and budgeting. 

If your company spent $12,000 on the laser printers last year, is there any way to know if this year that amount will be $4,000 or $25,000? Maybe the printers were purchased two years ago, so compared to the year before where the spend was $20,000, the $12,000 looks good. If the printers are included in the numbers from the year before, how do you compare the costs when new printers are not needed?

What if there were no toners on the shelf, and your company decided to place backup toners on the shelf? These are some examples of what makes print management difficult to do for most Charlotte-based companies. They can easily tell you at the end of the year the hard costs associated with printers, but without a plan, it becomes a cost center with no clear budget or expectation.

What we offer with print management is consistency. We offer a simple cost per print for your prints, which levels out the cost really well. We look at how printers are placed, we look at what the inventory levels are for hardware and supplies. We take the time to understand your business and then we apply rules and processes to help control cost. This means we are not out buying printers and toners whenever someone thinks they need a new printer. 

We know every business has unique needs, and you will always have the ability to do what is needed for the business. The main difference when you use managed print for your Charlotte, Concord or Gastonia area business is when there is a special need, you will know and it won't be an end-of-the-year surprise to your IT budget.
