As an organisation, you wish you could give your employees the licence to print freely, print whatever they want, how they want (in colour or black & white, single or double side…). However, this ‘free’ printing strategy can have a staggering impact on print related costs including paper, toner, cost of maintenance and support. In today’s organisations, employees print on average 60 pages a day or 12,000 sheets a year. Multiply this by the total number of employees in a single firm and you can get an idea of the impact. Add the indirect expenses mentioned above and you will find these costs mounting up to 3% of your total profit*.
