Your printer fleet is like the beating heart of your company--and, like any heart, it needs your help to stay healthy and happy. The truth is that desktop printers, while they may seem like an attractive option, are not great for your fleet's health--and here's why.

Protecting Your Fleet

Stop for a moment and consider an average day in your company. Chances are, printing is at the heart of almost everything you do--which means that any little problem in your printer fleet will be magnified and can easily turn into a huge, expensive ordeal. That's where fleet management comes in. This innovative solution helps you identify where the problems are--and, although you might not realize it, desktop printers are often the culprit.

What's the problem with desktop printers? Here are a few things you might discover with the help of printer fleet management.

• Higher prices

Although desktop printers have an attractive price tag when compared to their multifunction cousins, these machines aren't actually more affordable. In fact, the cost of operating them in the long-term is much higher than with a multifunction printer--and the more you print, the higher the price will be.

• Poor security

You might think that it's easier to protect multiple desktop printers instead of one multifunction printer, but that's not the case. Desktop devices are often equipped with only basic security measures, which means that they miss out on the safety of shared devices.

• Inefficiency

At the end of the day, a printer fleet made up of desktop machines scattered here and there just isn't efficient. There's no clear workflow, no standard procedures, and, often, no clear communication between devices. It causes more problems than it solves.
