What most corporations don’t know about print management solutions

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 2, 2008

The cost per page solution to hidden print management costs

June 2, 2008, OAKVILLE -- Operating at high efficiency in order to increase the bottom line is always a priority for businesses and not-for-profit organizations.

According to a study by InfoTrends, corporations spend an average of six percent of their gross revenue on their overall document management. Most companies, however, think they only spend around three percent of gross revenues, but when hardware, supplies and people costs are considered, the average is around six percent and growing. To reduce these costs, organizations need to consider alternative print solution options.

There are many opportunities for companies to reduce print costs. For example, organizations are quick to account for the hard and soft costs of purchasing a multifunction printer (MFP), supplies, toner, etc., but overlook the hidden cost of their daily operation.

Research has shown that an estimated 50 per cent of the overall printer cost can be tied to support, and of that, 20 per cent can be directly attributed to service calls to a company’s IT helpdesk, according to Principal Analyst Louella Fernades of Quocirca.

Most companies’ print management operations are askew with many departments operating independently with little or no knowledge of other departments’ printing supply needs. The savings that can come as a result of bulk buying are being overlooked.

This is the reason that LaserNetworks® launched its COST PER PAGE® program, in 1996, the first such program in the print solutions industry at that time. It includes on-site support of all printing and imaging devices and networks, management of all printer and imaging fleet assets, and provisioning of all printing supplies, everything except paper and power, for a pre-determined, fixed cost per page fee.

"Our experience working with over 500 North American organizations, including such companies as PepsiCo, and Boeing, has shown that print management costs can be reduced as much as 40 percent," says Chris Stoate, President of LaserNetworks®, Canada’s leading print solutions company.

LaserNetworks® currently supports over 50,000 printing and imaging devices, and delivers on-site service throughout Canada and the United States.

"There are numerous ways to reduce a company’s print operation costs, bulk buying and eliminating calls to a company’s IT helpdesk are only two of the many solutions available," says Chris Stoate. "Reducing equipment down-time, leveraging LaserNetworks®relationship with suppliers, using latest technology in the marketplace without incurring capital costs and taking advantage of the environmentally friendly options available are just a few ways that companies can improve their print management operations."

To succeed in business, going ‘green’ is a competitive advantage

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LaserNetworks provides steps for businesses to reduce costs and be better environmental stewards

January 30, 2008, OAKVILLE - Good business practices embrace environmental responsibility. In fact, a recent article published by the National Post, suggested that for businesses to succeed in this era, environmental stewardship is not an option, it's a must.

For many companies, the motivation to get started exists but questions about feasibility and profitability loom large bringing caution and hesitation about implementing changes. At first glance, it seems difficult for a business to become environmentally responsible and maintain financial viability.

"The task of becoming a good environmental steward is large, but manageable if broken down into small steps that are easy to navigate," says Chris Stoate, President of LaserNetworks®, Canada's leading print solutions company. "Making the environment a priority with a clear and comprehensive environmental strategy is a good place to start."

From their beginning in 1987, LaserNetworks® has modeled environmental responsibility and has had the objective to give customers the flexibility to make environmentally-friendly choices that reduce environmental impact and carbon footprint.

As Canada's leading print solutions company, providing environmentally friendly print solution services and products to virtually every sized company across Canada and continental USA including Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, major chartered banks, and large law firms, LaserNetworks® is proof that companies can be both environmentally responsible and profitable.

"One easy step for organizations is to look at their large volume consumables, such as paper and toner, and consider the reduction possibilities," says Chris Stoate. "For example, LaserNetworks® has recently decided to exclusively offer the REFLEXION brand of remanufactured toner cartridges because they're known to reduce the carbon footprint by 74 per cent - a small change that brings substantial environmental impact and at less cost than regular toner."

Approximately 97 per cent of the combined components (plastic, metal, rubber, paper, foam, and toner) in the toner cartridge can be recycled. If it isn't, the plastic, made of engineering-grade polymers, takes at least 1,000 years to decompose.

A study by PE International showed that REFLEXION toner cartridges reduce CO2 emissions by 74 per cent, global warming by 76 per cent, ozone depletion by 72 per cent, and provide energy savings of 70 per cent.

"We're excited about being able to offer clients desiring to be better corporate stewards, a product such as REFLEXION that does so much to preserve our environment," says Chris Stoate. "Environmental reductions such as these are an example of the small, simple steps companies can take, to become better environmental stewards - a small step perhaps, but multiplied by the number of businesses in North America, the significance is huge."
