Do you know how much power, paper and toner your printers use? Is your staff wasting paper? Are you paying too much for your printers? Are you going through toner too fast? Do you print in color when black and white would work?
Getting the answers to these questions is not easy. Even if you have a Managed Print Service, your account rep might show up once a year (or even less often) and give you a bunch of statistics, but no answers. The Troyka-TC is here to change that.
Did you know the average employee’s printing costs average around $600 to $1,300 every year? And according to StopWaste.org, up to 17% of everything that’s printed is actually waste. What’s more, 15% of all paper documents that aren’t waste end up misplaced and 7.5% are lost completely.
GFC helps address these challenges by connecting all your printing devices to a single monitoring system. This ensures each of your devices receives maintenance when needed. But even more importantly, we can now provide your business with a monitoring system that enables you to identify and track levels of printing and adjust your printer fleet to your exact needs.
