A4 Mono Printers
For all the desirability of moving 100% to centralised multifunctional devices, logistical and cultural barriers mean that user and workgroup black & white printers remain a necessity. For the vast majority of our clients, this means HP LaserJet type consumer-grade equipment. Here are the problems HP-type printer users report:
- Care packs and expensive toner must be bought and managed
- In-house servicing puts a strain on IT resource
- Difficult to track and predict the variable costs
- Equipment often only prints in single-side mode only
- The product line changes constantly so no standardisation of equipment
- IT Management of devices and print drivers is complicated
There is another way. Charterhouse now offers the new Sharp A4 mono printer range as part of a full managed service. This delivers the following benefits:
- All-inclusive contract for toner, parts and maintenance
- Standardisation: one model, one driver, one cost
- Faster and better output for your users
- Significantly reduced total cost of ownership - hard costs
- Significantly reduced IT management & service - soft costs
According to HP's published figures, backed up by our own audit reports, 50 machines over 5 years cost £70,000 less with Sharp A4 mono printers. Our professional services will help you to build the business case for making a switch to corporate-grade equipment. Contact us to arrange a site visit and audit.
