Saving Money on Printing Costs

• If you own a business then you are well aware of
  how much printing can cost. At a claimed 4,731
  per gallon, printer ink is more expensive than
  vintage Champagne, rare whiskey or Russian caviar
  so saving money on printing costs has become an
  issue that has to be dealt with.

• This has been a fact for over ten years and
  instead of this commodity going down over time
  like everything else does in consumer
  electronics, ink prices are going up, some
  reports say as much as 30 percent since 2009.

• You can easily pay 20 to 35 per ink cartridge
  that may yield any where from 200 to 1000 pages,
  if your lucky. Its easy to see how printing can
  become very expensive very quickly for business.

• If your a small to medium size business and
  printing on average 500 to 800 pages a week,
  these cost can become significant. An average
  price per printed page using a single color like
  black is running between 3 to 10 cents a page.

• Lets take an average cost of 6.5 cents per page
  and you are printing 650 pages a week. That comes
  to 2,197 a year and thats just for black, if
  your staff prints in color this cost goes up
  significantly.

• Like it or not printing has become a substantial
  business expense, but there are ways to control
  this cost. There  will always be the printing
  that cant be avoided in business like invoicing,
  packing slips, mailing labels, legal documents
  and so on.

Be Conscientiousness of What you are Printing

• Printing has become so easy now that we dont
  even think about it anymore. How many times have
  you printed memos, maps, baseball scores,
  interesting articles that you think you will read
  later and never do?

12

• How about that message at the bottom of emails,
  Please consider the environment before printing
  this email, does it really do any good? Have you
  ever noticed how many times that message ends up
  on its own page wasting even more paper?

13

• Almost anything you print can be copied and sent
  via email or saved as a PDF and forwarded to
  someone to read. Many businesses are now using
  programs such as Dropbox to save and share many
  of their files and documents.

  printing a single page.
