A healthcare clinic that serves the needs of a small town population. A non-profit law firm that focuses on family legal matters. A restaurant franchise that operates from a tiny rental location.
What do these businesses have in common? Print needs.
Nearly every organization demands some form of printed documentation, whether it’s health records, legal notes, customer receipts, or even shipping labels. And every organization’s needs are unique, but many small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) face common challenges, such as: limited office/desk space for devices; limited color printing needs; lack of integration with existing solutions; and poor security.
For small businesses, or those with small budgets, printing or copying on inexpensive devices purchased at retail may work in the short term. Most businesses will find however, that a number of support issues and a high cost per copy can arise with daily usage.
“There are countless advantages to a business right-sizing its print fleet to match its needs,” says Shane Coffey, Sr. Director of Hardware Product Management for Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America. “In addition to likely keeping businesses within budget, a businesses can realize faster output speeds, enhanced functionality, improved productivity, and seamless network integration.”
