Business owners are experts at slashing costs to direct a higher percentage of revenues toward growth. Bundling technology responsibilities with print infrastructures may seem like a good move. However, many companies ultimately discover that this decision can be financially counterproductive.
- Many office managers put printer-related issues and technical tasks together. They are not the same thing.
- IT teams report that as many as 60% of their helpdesk calls are due to printer-related issues.
- Printer-related helpdesk calls from employees include everything from paper jams to supply shortages. Many problems do not justify a call for tech support, but employees may have nowhere else to turn.
- When IT teams devote hours each day to print environments, they don't have the time they need to focus on helping your business succeed.
- While skilled at their jobs, most IT personnel are not trained to troubleshoot today's complex imaging technologies.
