We live in the age of technology, with that said, ask many companies what they spend on their print environment and you will be surprised by how few companies really know. To make matters worse, we have found that many companies do not know how many devices they have and the location of those devices. This creates a major risk within the business as it leads to costs being unmanaged. Just to clear up any confusion, when I say “Print Environment”, I am referring to all printer and copiers that a company is making use of.
Businesses that have a printer or copier on contract on their premises will have to pay a CPC/CPP. Businesses pay these print costs without entirely understanding what they stand for and what the costs include, making it the “Scary Unknown” that has to be paid or else printing will come to a standstill. In this blog I am going to give you the definition of CPC/CPP, explain how it is calculated and what should be included, so that you can make an educated decision when signing printer contracts and paying those print bills.

It is a universal truth that printing can become a very costly expense if it is not closely managed. Looking at a school environment, printing cannot be done away with as printing plays a critical role in the education environment. As technology evolves, educational institutions are challenged to keep up with the latest trends and they must do so with a limited budget.
A common misconception is that educational technology replaces printing, as well as replacing the role of the teacher. Technology in the education space is there to support the teacher and school management in their daily activities and to enhance the teaching experience. Budgetary constraints become a barrier for schools to adopt the latest teaching technology and therefore place school management under immense pressure to keep expenses to a minimum while at the same time innovating within the school space.
