You've got a shiny, impressive HP multifunction printer sitting in your office--what now? Here are a few tips for placing printers that will save time, boost efficiency, and help you make the most of your new purchase.
In the Spotlight
When you make a big business decision like buying HP multifunction printers for your fleet, you want to get your money's worth. Of course, the printers themselves will do the trick, boasting high-end performance and unrivaled reliability--but there's something you can do to really put your new machines in the spotlight, and it's pretty simple.
Just place your printers as effectively as possible.
Of course, that's sometimes easier said than done. Here are a few tips that will help you get those new printers in the perfect spot!
#1: Pay attention.
How often do employees print? Which tasks require printing, and where do employees head to do the next part of the task? Remember that HP multifunction printers combine fax, scan, print, and copy capabilities, so they're like little workstations themselves.
#2: Create a map.
Mapping your office can seem strange at first, but it will help you understand your workforce's relationship with the new printers--and, as a result, it will be much easier to put your machines in a place that makes sense. Remember to label offices, desks, and common areas so you can keep up with your map's orientation!
#3: Avoid placement mistakes.
To put your new printers in the spotlight, you'll want to keep them out of the way. That means avoiding placement mistakes like choosing high-traffic areas, break areas where a stray coffee mug might spill on your new investment or spots where printing noise and shuffling paper might distract hard-working teams.
