Smart Print Management
for Education
Common challenges we help you solve
We understand the print pressures faced by schools and trusts. Here’s how we help you tackle the most common issues:
-
Uncontrolled Printing Costs - printing can quickly become expensive without proper oversight.
-
Unreliable devices and downtime - When printers fail, learning and admin suffer - especially during busy periods.
-
Wasted time and inefficiency -No insight into who’s printing what, where, and how much it’s costing you.
-
Sensitive data left at printers - Uncollected documents can risk data breaches, especially for safeguarding or SEND information.
-
High paper and toner waste - Without print rules and accountability, sustainability targets are harder to meet.
