Your managed print services partner can be a valuable resource when it comes to green initiatives. Look for these and other green services for help reaching your environmental stewardship goals:
1. Green technology partnerships
Look for products from technology manufacturers who take their impact on the environment seriously. Search for awards from environmental groups, ENERGY STAR ratings on equipment, and technologies that help end-users go green in the office.
2. Recycling programs
A toner cartridge can take more than 1,000 years to return to its basic components. Keep your cartridges from harming the environment by choosing a managed print services partner with an active recycling program. Some MPS providers go even further and will take your recyclable cardboard and unwanted devices in addition to your spent toner cartridges.
3. Print management software
Rules-based printing can take your efforts to reduce wasteful printing one step further. You'll be helping the environment and reducing costs at the same time.
4. Document management solutions
Replace your paper-intensive processes with digital document management. Route digital documents directly to your existing processes and workflows to save time, money, and paper.
5. E-form solutions
If your organization depends on forms, you're familiar with the seemingly never-ending paper trail created by forms. Replacing your paper forms with e-forms saves resources and eliminates the errors and time constraints caused by manual data entry.
6. Comprehensive usage assessments
It's impossible to reduce what you can't measure. A thorough assessment of your print environment is key to a successful managed print services partnership. You'll find out what you're spending to print documents along with other valuable metrics to save time and money.
