SMART PRINTERS
Printing physical documents is still an incredibly important part of any office. Without the proper controls there's a real risk of a business racking up huge costs – but an even bigger concern is security.
That’s both from the point of view of confidential documents being discovered on a printer, but also outdated printers being hacked.
The solution to all of these problems is to implement smart printers backed up by a proper print management system.
What is a smart printer?
A smart printer looks and acts just like a typical network printer. However, it has a range of features and functions that help to reduce costs and make users more aware of what they’re printing. Smart printers hook into a print management system that provides overall control and reporting. It’s this combination of technologies that combine to lower costs.
Although the cost of laser printing has dropped, the waste can easily add up to thousands of pounds per year for a medium-sized office. That’s not even taking into account the environmental cost.
Educating users about what to print (and what not to print), plus default settings for all users to reduce toner use is a good starting point but addressing the printers themselves and switching to smart printers can make an even bigger impact.
Log in to print
One of the main advantages of a smart printer is that users can be asked to log in before they can print.
This means that a print job is not physically carried out until a user is actually standing in front of the printer to authorise the printout. This avoids print-and-forget copies as users must be beside the printer for the system to run, allowing a print job sent by mistake to be cancelled at any point and stopping people from walking off with someone else’s print job by mistake.
Smart printing is also a more secure solution, as users can print sensitive documents and know that only they can reclaim them. This means many companies no longer have to provide smaller personal printers to managers, again, saving costs.
Energy saving
Printers use a fair amount of power to deliver a page, but innovations are happening all the time to reduce this. Smart printers automatically dropping into a deep sleep when they’re not needed.
