Written by Tim Rust, CDW marketing manager - services   
Looking at the maze of printing devices in almost any organization, one realizes that we are still far from technology’s promise of a completely digitized work environment. Out of necessity, convenience and personal preference, the great majority of today’s workers still use printers, copiers and fax machines. Some devices are new, some are old and there’s often a diverse collection of multi- and single-function machines, some connected to the network and some not. One thing is certain: from this tangled web stems chaotic supply and maintenance management, adding expense, cramping efficiency and reducing IT staff productivity.

Often called the “final frontier in information technology (IT),” print management can help control spiraling expenses, not only from the cost of printers, toner and paper, but also from additional hardware, maintenance services and power consumption.

As more organizations look for ways to reduce costs and conserve capital, managed print services offer a simple way to get a grip on largely-undocumented, unpredictable and often excessive annual printing expenditures.

Managed print solutions provide estimates on the number of toner and ink cartridges, maintenance kits and other supplies required over the contract period, based on current and anticipated print volumes. These solutions can also help determine the right mix of printer types for the environment.

Consolidation is Critical
Consolidation isn’t simply a matter of eliminating redundant and high-cost devices. For example in some settings, combining multiple devices into a single, multi-functional unit also benefits the bottom line by eliminating wasted paper and other supplies. Consolidation can reduce printing power use by as much as 40 percent and increase security by making it more difficult to print, copy or fax potentially sensitive information. For businesses with multiple locations, consolidation enables proactive management of high-cost printing, making the most efficient use of color printers e...
