Common Misconceptions Regarding Green Printing
Green printing has become a popular topic over the last few years in business. Many businesses are turning to green printing habits to ensure that they are doing their part to reduce excess waste and save the environment. However, 
there are a number of misconceptions regarding green printing and how a business goes about reducing their environmental impact.

Utilise Your Office Space Effectively With Device Consolidation
The layout and types of devices that you have in your office tie directly into your overall productivity. Some companies feel that more copiers and printers directly equates to higher productivity. This however is not the case and an over abundance of copiers and printers that are not necessary can actually lead to a decrease in productivity and a significant amount of over printing, leading to higher costs and increased unnecessary waste.
We can help you determine the appropriate combination of equipment for your job. In some cases multifunction printers strategically placed throughout your office is the solution to increasing productivity and reducing costs. Other times a combination of multifunction devices and single function devices that supplement users who need to print often is exactly what a business needs to maximise productivity.
Small Businesses Get More with Print Management
Small businesses must do everything in their power to ensure that they flourish. With Print Management programs, businesses are given the ability to monitor and track printing within their own office and create a plan to reduce 
printing. Print Management programs allow businesses to reduce excess printing by taking a look at how their business prints and makes recommendations based on their specific printing environment.
Here are some of the top benefits of Print Management:
· Improved Productivity: The productivity of your employees is vital to succeeding in business. Through Print Management programs, aside from reducing printing, we help you optimise your device layout and make recommendations on device consolidation when possible.

do not properly consolidate equipment and don’t take into account the overall need and deployment of equipment throughout your office, it is easy to actually hinder the productivity of your employees. The top problems that businesses have in regards to the deployment and consolidation of their equipment include:
· Utilising too many devices, driving up supply costs.
· Consolidating equipment down to too few devices. This causes bottlenecks and does not allow your employees to work at maximum productivity.
