“I made inquiries to my peers in the healthcare industry to learn steps our organization could take to gain greater visibility into our printing costs and get greater value from a print services partner. This meant moving away from a service provider we had been with for roughly 10 years. After an evaluation, we decided to engage Managed Print Services delivered through Printelligent. We are very pleased with the decision. Our end-users have received improved service levels from Printelligent technicians.”

Go Green

Green initiatives these days go way beyond recycling. When it comes to printing, corporations must now take into account energy consumption, along with paper, supplies and equipment recycling. Printelligent has a long history of helping organizations incorporate Green-friendly initiatives into their own print environments. Our managed print experts will help you adopt practices encouraging your employees to participate in the conservation of the earth's resources and minimize environmental impact. We'll help you purchase print devices from a Green perspective based on energy consumption guidelines, and recommend the adoption of Green printing practices.

Purchasing Green

Printelligent offers purchasing advice that is critical to energy conservation. We recommend the consolidation of print devices and more efficient use of energy by purchasing newer generation printers.

Each printer has statistics concerning energy consumption that can be reviewed during the purchase process. In addition, suggestions for paperless processes can be reviewed to optimize workflow.

Recycling

Our services include the breaking down of cartridges and other supplies into their separate materials for recycling, such as plastic, aluminum and heavy metals. By separating these materials, they can be recycled to avoid landfills. We also recommend purchasing print devices from manufacturers who build with recycling in mind.

Printelligent's partners have on-going commitments to manufacturing processes dovetailing into recycling programs including supplies and printer recycling. Our managed print experts are kept current on all programs and promotions offered through our partners and will make you aware of how you can recycle supplies on an on-going basis, and trade-in old printers in a responsible and cost efficient manner that will ultimately benefit your company.
