Reduce Printing Costs with Simple Ground Rules
Employees using work printers for personal printing on occasion may not seem like a big deal. A page here, or a page there might not be worth getting in a fuss about. But if your company isn’t tracking exactly how much money is going toward unauthorized printing, you could be surprised by how much money and resources are being lost.
What is Rules-Based Printing?
The concept is simple: establish a set of rules for how printing in your office operates and enforce it. Five Star Business Equipment can help every step of the way from establishing a plan, to implementing, to suggestions for enforcing the new rules, we have the expertise to support your company during this transition.
Rules-based printing has many benefits including:

- Printing from mobile devices
