potential issues
- Each employee monitors his printer himself and reports malfunctions and a need for consumables to Purchasing himself. The risk of long downtimes and incorrect orders is high. The consequence is often a stockpiling of consumables, but what if the printer is exchanged?
- The often very expensive consumables find no further use and must be disposed of.
- Storage also poses a risk of theft. The employee who has the same printer at home may access it in the company.
- The IT department as well as the purchasing department often have no overview of printers used in the company. Furthermore, there are no evaluations of printing behavior and printer utilization. As a result, the fleet can be optimized neither ecologically nor economically.
- What if you have to submit a quote and can’t print?
The solution
All current SNMP-enabled network printers can be read and processed by a dedicated agent. The browser-enabled central basis supports you in your administrative work with extensive reporting. It offers analyses of printed pages, consumed materials and the technical condition of the devices. Threshold values and events can be individually defined and enable specific reactions. Automatically triggered reorders avoid unnecessary stockouts, and service staff can be notified of replacements on time. The use of standard interfaces to your suppliers and extensive import/export functions in various formats save time and process costs. Thanks to the integration options with other OFFICE ASSET modules (Order, Controlling, Service, Asset Management), you have a comprehensive tool at your fingertips that allows you to optimally and comprehensively manage your printer landscape.
