While many companies allow occasional personal use of office machines and equipment, it is common practice to take advantage of this offering. Almost 80% of office workers tend to run personal projects on office equipment. This can increase your print costs substantially while not even addressing business needs. Is there a better way to control your print and copy output? Absolutely. You don’t want to create a blanket policy against personal printing, because that can make employees go directly against a policy, retaliate, or significantly reduce morale. Instead, copiers now have various features that can address print controls, and these can be part of a larger managed print solution. You can include software such as PaperCut, a helpful print solution that integrates with MFPs to address printing issues.
