Education isn't just about pencils, textbooks, and graded tests. Often, it's about printers too--which means it also needs to be about managed print services. In today's industry spotlight, we'll take a look at how managed print helps schools "make the grade!"

Making the Grade with Managed Print

If your educational institution is constantly relieved that there's no grading system for printer success, then the truth is that your printers are probably the ones in charge--not you. Now, as long as the machines are getting the job done, that may not sound like the worst news; however, an uncontrolled print environment can quickly become inefficient, full of security risks, and, unfortunately, a budgeting nightmare.

The good news is that managed print services can help schools make the grade by getting control of those pesky printers. From scheduling regular maintenance to streamlining your fleet, managed print makes it possible for educational institutions to print--and scan, copy, and fax--with complete confidence.

Here are a few more things managed print can do for schools:

Simplify the printing task

Printing can be stressful--especially when your school's print environment is a little disorganized. Luckily, managed print services help identify workflow weaknesses, choose ideal printer settings, eliminate inefficiencies, and even automate certain parts of the printing task. You'll never be at a printer's mercy again!

Budget for upgrades

Working on outdated equipment can slow education to a crawl. Giving teachers and students the latest, greatest tech isn't usually in a school's budget--but with managed print, it's easy to schedule and budget for upgrades that will actually save money in the long run.

Improve security

Managed print providers work with schools to more effectively handle private data through every step of the life cycle, from creation to storage. The best part is that managed print improves security without giving staff more hoops to jump through, meaning that security and efficiency can finally coexist.

Conclusion

In today's industry spotlight, we learned that managed print services can help schools make the grade by taking control of printers, print environments, and even machine settings. The benefits are numerous, from budget-savings to smoother workflows, and the result is simple: stronger, more effective education.
