CALGARY, ALBERTA (July 2009) – Print Audit, the print management company, announced today that it has added new functionality to Facilities Manager that will assist office equipment dealers in taking more control of the volumes at their customer sites. The innovative Machines in Field report allows dealers to generate a report that reveals how many pages are being created on devices which are currently not included in their managed print services program.
Facilities Manager is a powerful, easy to use tool designed to remotely collect meter reads, automate supplies fulfillment and report service information for managing fleets of printers, copiers, fax machines and multi-function devices. The Machines In Field report details the percentage of color pages and the percentage of total volumes dealers are capturing at any given customer site.
“It’s common for dealers to significantly underestimate how many pages their managed print services program is losing to competing, unmanaged devices,” said John MacInnes, President and CEO of Print Audit. “The Machines in Field report will help our dealers to develop strategies to both reduce their customer’s costs and increase their own profits.”
Dealers can use the data provided by Facilities Manager in conjunction with Print Audit 6 Rules in order to redirect jobs from the unmanaged devices to their own more cost effective devices. Print Audit 6 Rules is a print management tool which allows companies to fully control how their printers are used. Rules can be configured to redirect jobs from high-cost to low-cost devices, limit color printing to specific devices, force users to print on both sides of the page and more.
