The Power of Rules-Based Printing

A workplace where each print job aligns perfectly with cost-efficiency and sustainability goals, without sidelining your business's critical needs, is closer to reality than you might think. Rules-based printing, a cornerstone of Preferred Business Systems' managed print services, empowers businesses to enforce smart printing practices.

Understanding Rules-Based Printing

Rules-based printing is a feature of managed print services that allows businesses to set specific guidelines or "rules" for printing operations. These rules can dictate everything from who can print in color, to which documents must be printed double-sided, to setting limits on the number of pages that can be printed per job or per user. The goal is to reduce unnecessary printing, lower costs, and promote environmentally friendly practices.

The Benefits of Implementing Rules-Based Printing

Cost Reduction

One of the most immediate benefits of adopting rules-based printing is the significant reduction in printing costs. By setting rules that limit excessive use of resources, businesses can see a noticeable decrease in paper and toner consumption, leading to lower operational expenses.

Enhanced Security

Rules-based printing also enhances document security by controlling who has access to print certain documents. Sensitive information can be safeguarded, ensuring that confidential materials are only printed by authorized personnel.

Environmental Sustainability

Adopting rules-based printing supports your business's green initiatives. By reducing paper waste and toner usage, your office can contribute to environmental sustainability, promoting a positive image among clients and partners who value eco-conscious practices.

Improved Efficiency

With rules-based printing, businesses can streamline their printing processes, eliminating unnecessary print jobs and encouraging efficient use of resources. This leads to a more organized, productive workplace where employees are mindful of their printing habits.
