Datasharp Independent Solutions

Print Auditor can reveal your print

Traditionally desktop and network printers have always been purchased with little regard to the total cost of ownership over the lifetime of the product. With the advent of the digital printing revolution, and the associated extremely low total cost of ownership, it has become ever more important to identify and replace printers that are inefficient and needlessly expensive to operate. Implementing and monitoring a cost effective printing solution can help a company make massive savings.

However, the true cost of network printing has been always been extremely difficult, if not impossible, to determine. That has now changed. Up to 15% of a company's budget can be spent on IT and document production. If you could clearly identify 20%, 30% or even higher annual savings on the cost of network printing would you make changes? Of course you would. But first you have to identify where the time and money is being lost.

With Print Auditor Datasharp will analyse your current print volume, print strategy and its impact upon the network. Datasharp are then able to recommend solutions that will better suit your printing requirements. Print Auditor will not only expose the true cost of printing, but also the nature of your document production and allow analysis of future printing trends.

With Print Auditor we can analyse:

Network Document Volumes/Costs.
Client Print Volumes/Costs.
Departmental Print Volumes/Costs.
Actual Printer Cost Profiles.
Printer Network Utilisation.
Cost Effectiveness.

The initial installation of Print Auditor is available on a consultative basis and can be implemented quickly and efficiently. The final Print Auditor Report enables your company to streamline your current printing strategy, improve the cost effectiveness and demonstrate the productiveness of future print strategies.

A data collection agent monitors all the print queues within your current printing network environment. This agent interrogates each print job and collects detailed fields of specific information. This valuable data is collated and after an agreed period is processed allowing financial reports to be generated. For more information on Print Auditor or a consultation contact us.
