Every business in basically every industry needs office equipment for functionality. Think about it - your business needs the fleet to keep working. From printers to copiers and scanners, your capacity is determined by your equipment, and therefore, also your printer fleet management.

If you are a little in the dark about what good printer fleet management might look like, you're not alone. Many owners and managers don't understand everything that contributes to print spending, and therefore miss opportunities to streamline workplace operations and the print environment for cost savings and budget functionality.

The Baseline

The basics of printer fleet management include:

• Understanding print volume and spending
• Overseeing print policy and rules-based printing
• Managing supplies
• Proactively addressing maintenance and repair needs
• Staying ahead of print costs and budget oversight

If any of the above seems like a bit much to take on as a manager or to assign to administrative staff, you're right - often the wrong employee gets bogged down with printer duties despite lacking focus and expertise in managing print. The outcome is inefficient, poorly managed printer fleet and budget.

Working with a managed print provider is actually one of the best ways to integrate print budget management with comprehensive printer fleet management. Managed print can cover all of the above aspects of fleet management while keeping your budget on track.

The Benefits

The benefits of having reliable printer fleet management and managed print services are broad-reaching. Some of the top benefits include:

• Print savings
• Employee efficiency
• Improved office productivity
• Streamlined print environment
• Improved workflows
