Solving the Pain of Complex Fleet Management
Managing a large fleet of printers is a challenge for many businesses. In fact, organizations spend between 1% and 3% of their annual revenue on printing. Tracking toner levels, maintaining aging equipment, and ensuring smooth operations can create inefficiencies and drive up costs. These challenges not only reduce productivity but also add unnecessary stress to daily operations. Fortunately, Toshiba’s Managed Print Services provide an efficient, cost-effective solution to streamline fleet management, save time, and improve overall business efficiency.
The challenges of managing a large printer fleet
Businesses with extensive printer fleets face several obstacles. One common issue is managing printer supplies, especially toner. Without a centralized system, companies often experience stockouts or excess inventory—some printers run out of toner while others accumulate unused supplies. This lack of visibility creates inefficiencies and unnecessary costs.
In addition, frequent equipment breakdowns and aging devices increase the need for constant maintenance. Businesses often deal with multiple service providers, causing delays and further complicating fleet management. These ongoing challenges result in wasted time and resources, which could be better spent focusing on core business activities.
