Printing expenses can silently creep up, draining resources without businesses realizing the full extent of the problem. In fact, the average employee’s printing habits cost a company $725 per employee annually. Many organizations struggle to monitor and control these costs, leading to wasteful spending and inefficiency. Let’s explore how Toshiba’s solutions tackle this issue head-on, helping businesses reduce unnecessary print-related costs while improving overall efficiency.

The problem: High print costs

High print costs often stem from a lack of visibility and control over print environments. Common challenges include:

  • Unmonitored usage: Employees printing unnecessarily or using color printing for non-critical tasks.
  • Inefficient fleet management: Overlapping devices, outdated equipment, and unmanaged toner purchases.
  • Hidden costs: Maintenance, downtime, and waste from inefficient processes.

These issues not only inflate expenses but also pull resources away from core business activities.
