Is it Time for a Print Assessment?

A print assessment is critical to proactively managing your print infrastructure and the vitality of your devices.

To ensure you are fully optimizing your print environment by reducing costs, boosting efficiency, and implementing strong security protocols, you need to stay on top of your print infrastructure. A print assessment can help you assess the overall health of your print environment. BDS, your local New England and Florida print partner, offers print assessments with suggestions for better ways to upgrade your print environment.

How Do Print Assessments Work?


Investing in a print assessment, also known as a print audit, with BDS is a smooth and effortless process. We are sending one of our highly skilled technicians to your office to conduct an audit of your existing print infrastructure. We will closely examine all of your print devices to gauge a better idea of a few factors, including:

  • Print Volume
  • Print Speed
  • Security Protocols
  • Print Costs

These factors are highly variable, so you may thrive in one area and lack in another. This is where the magic happens; BDS will offer customized solutions based on our expertise to ensure each function operates at the best capacity. Ultimately, a print audit is the critical first step to proactively managing your print infrastructure.

What Are the Benefits?

Cost reduction is the strongest advantage of investing in a print assessment. For reference, you may be overspending on print-related costs. A print assessment provides you with better control over your print environment so that you can track the number of print jobs happening day-to-day.

Additionally, slow-running printers with a low output can cost you time and money overall. Conducting a print assessment helps you catch these issues early before they snowball into a more significant problem. A print assessment will help you breathe new life into your print infrastructure with updated ways to optimize your print environment.

So, Do I Need a Print Assessment?

If you regularly operate multiple devices in your office, then a print assessment is for you. Conversely, this may not be required if you are currently working with one laser printer or multifunction device. Still, enterprise companies managing 10-20 office printers, copiers, and devices will benefit the most from a print audit.
