What is your idea of productivity? It may seem like a straightforward question, but in reality, "productivity" looks a little different to all of us. Take a moment to imagine the most productive day possible. Is everyone at their desks and working? Are phones ringing nonstop? Are file cabinets overflowing with the info for brand-new customers who just discovered your company today? No matter what productivity looks like to you, there are certain things that must be done in order to achieve that high level of success and efficiency. While the details differ depending on your company, one thing that always needs special care is your print environment--and with low supply alerts, that "special care" is easier to give than ever.
Printers
Every company, big or small, name-brand or mom-and-pop, relies on its printer or printers. Communication, file-keeping, advertisement, budgeting--if it's part of your daily workflow, it probably requires a printer. Despite this, though, we still take our printers for granted until they're no longer capable of doing their work. Imagine a scenario in which someone has forgotten to refill the ink or paper in the printer. Of course, no one else knows that, and everyone continues sending documents to the printer as usual. What you're left with is a catastrophe--no one gets their prints, communication breaks down, and productivity is at a standstill. You're stuck like this until more supplies can be ordered. Sound like fun? Probably not--but luckily, there's a solution.
Automated Alerts
Automated alerts can save you the hassle of forgetting to refill printer supplies, and protect your productivity. How? Here's a quick look!
- Automated. Low supply alerts can be programmed just the way you need them, and they work with a wide variety of printer models, brands, and designs. Fully automated and customized, these alerts work to inform you of which supplies need replacement--and they let you know exactly which printer is in question.
- Ordering. Rather than just prompting you to refill supplies, low supply alerts can also be set up to make the ordering process itself immediate. As soon as you see the warning, you can order the necessary supplies. The program even generates an order, so all you have to do is press send.
- Management. Automated alerts help you better manage your print environment, ensuring maximized productivity and a sheer drop in wasted time. Of course, these alerts only target one area of your print environment--they can be much more powerful in combination with Managed Print Services, a good option for anyone looking to have more control and less waste.
