Managed Printing

Managed Printing is cheaper and greener than buying, managing and servicing your own devices. ITS does not charge departments for the hardware; you pay only for the prints and copies you generate.

Managed printing also provides customers with more proactive machine servicing. Toner levels are now being actively monitored with our Pharos Beacon software. Our staff now replace your supplies in many cases before you know they are needed. Automated meter acquisition is also taking place with our new software. This ensures consistent meter collection and reporting for your devices.

For best results, toner bottles should not be shaken. This interferes with our monitoring software and provides a false reading that may cause the device to appear it has more toner than is actively available.

Machine administrators should store paper in a cool, dry location and only load the amount that is likely to be used within two to four days. Paper left in a device too long draws moisture increasing the likelihood of jams and reduced print quality.
