Print Cost Optimization

COSMODATA helps businesses reduce their total printing cost through usage analysis, the right choice of devices and organized printing policies.

Existing Cost Analysis

We assess:

• number of devices
• monthly page volume
• color / mono usage
• consumables
• maintenance
• cost per page
• downtime
• equipment age

so that the real cost points are identified.

Cost Per Page

A proper evaluation is not based solely on the purchase price.

We examine:

so that the actual operating cost can be calculated.

Device Consolidation

The following can be identified:

• underutilized printers
• expensive standalone devices
• duplicated equipment
• incorrect workload allocation

and be replaced by a more efficient architecture.

Print Policies

Rules can be applied such as:

• duplex by default
• monochrome by default
• color restrictions
• user quotas
• department limits
• large-job routing

so that unnecessary print jobs are reduced.

Monitoring & Reporting

Usage can be monitored by:

• device
• user
• department
• location
• color / mono
• period

so that management knows where the greatest cost arises.

Consumables Optimization

Proper management of toner and consumables helps reduce:

• of excess inventory
• unnecessary orders
• emergency purchases
• downtime

through better planning and monitoring.

Lifecycle Management

Devices with high maintenance costs or low performance can be identified early and replaced in an orderly manner.
