The expenses on printing documents (paper, toner, printer maintenance) are very sensitive even for a medium-size enterprise. There are special printing audit programs available to optimize the expenses and ensure the rational usage of printers in an organization. Such print monitoring programs enable you to carry out the detailed analysis of the printer hardware usage, document flow volume, and the amount of money the organization spends for printing of those documents. Besides that, it is often necessary to know the state of a particular printer, and who and what is printing on it. The printing tracking allows not only to find out the current situation in that area but also work out the ways to reduce the expenses, the ways to deploy the optimum paperwork tracking solution, and set the long-term control over all of the organization’s printing means.
