How the program works

No office can function without a printer. The bigger the office, the more printers it has, and the larger are the related costs on paper, ink and additional equipment. Printer Activity Monitor is a "do-gooder" kind of program that actually makes you money, instead of wasting it, by lowering your printing costs (up to fifty dollars a year per laser printer, according to our customer survey). How? It tracks each document printed and keeps a database of all printing activity.

How Printer Activity Monitor works

Printer Activity Monitor immediately identifies any employees who overuse or abuse company printers. Second, it allows you to plan you printing budget properly, so you don't have to buy extra ink, cartridges and paper "just in case". Finally, it shows real use of each printer, so you can re-rout network document flow instead of purchasing new printers.

The program is presented in two modules. The first one is conveniently located in the tray and tracks every document printed. The second module calculates this data and generates reports and diagrams.

For example, you can build a report that shows how many documents were printed on a specified printer within the past two months. Also, you can have a breakdown of printer use (in pages printed) by each employee or workstation. Finally, you can have a printing budget for each department (number of pages allowed to be printed in a period of time) and put weekly statistics on the wall.

Our customers’ experiences clearly demonstrate that printer usage significantly decreases (by 15-40%) within the first month after the program installed and stays just as low. Some of our bigger clients save more than $10,000 a year with Printer Activity Monitor.
