FYI, this story is more than a year old

The New Year is well underway; it’s hard to believe that one month has already passed.

As the office desks fill with staff returning from breaks and production increases, it’s a good time to consider if any areas of your business can be improved to help cut costs and boost productivity.

For example, have you ever considered how old technology and printers can be affecting your business in terms of production times, quality of output, staff satisfaction (or frustration), wasted time, expensive consumables and energy costs?

It’s difficult to calculate the true cost but if you’re still using old printers and devices it may be worth considering the benefits of upgrading.

The Fuji Xerox DocuPrint 455/405 series offers a range of advanced functionality which can help businesses save time and money including:

Speed:

Built for speed the DocuPrint 455 d is off and running delivering 45 pages per minute with the first page out in as little as 5 seconds. It offers the quickest monochrome print speeds in its class.

Multifunction capabilities:

The icon based, intuitive 4.3 inch colour touch screen lets you program a job while another is in progress.

Convert to portable digital files:

Easily turn cumbersome hard to copy forms and documents into portable, digital files, with the added convenience of sharing these digital files automatically via email. You can also send your files to an established network folder or export to a USB

Easily scan large pages:

The DocuPrint M455 df allows you to scan larger pages without disassembling your bound documents

All in one savings:

Combine the functions of a copier, printer, scanner, fax and email into one single value item that can generate savings on energy and supply costs.

Reduce paper usage:

Dramatically cut your paper usage and related costs with automatic double-sided printing. The N-up printing feature saves printing costs and lets you print multiple pages on one sheet - a useful option when sharing presentations.

Freedom unplugged:

With optional wi-fi capabilities the printer is ready to go to work wherever it’s needed.

Increase toner efficiency:

Extra-high capacity toner cartridges allow you to spend less time loading supplies and more time getting work done. The unique Fuji Xerox EA Toner fuses at a much lower temperature, reducing power consumption by up to 20% and Co2 emissions by up to 35%, compared to congenital toner.

Security:

Secure Print keeps your sensitive documents out of the wrong hands by requiring users to enter a personal identification number.

Print when and where you want:

Apple AirPrint lets you print, email and import office documents directly from your mobile iOS device when connected to your office wi-fi network. When working off-site you can use Google Cloud print.
