Office scanners may briefly have become a source of fun at all those office parties last month, but now that the festivities are well and truly behind us, we tend to overlook this useful machine and how much it contributes to the productivity of the office.

Reading the small print – what to look out for when you’re signing a printer hire agreement.....

The devil is in the detail when you sign a lease hire deal for a new multifunctional printing device, especially when that contract runs to six or more pages.

As far as we’re concerned, terms and conditions are there to protect both sides, not a chance to bamboozle the customer into an arrangement that makes them feel trapped; that benefits nobody in the long run.

For more information, go to http://bit.ly/2lUMeRH and find out what you might be letting yourself in for by ticking that 'have you read the terms and conditions?' box!

Is your multi-functional machine out of action? The Loan Printer rides to the rescue.
It never rains but it pours. Since Christmas I’ve been called out to three of my clients’ offices because the multi-functional printers we’d supplied them had been flooded with water!
Although rented machines remain our property, they’re insured by the customer and I know it can take time for their insurance claims to be processed. I value the relationship I have with my clients so, if they rely on their machine, I make it my priority to ensure they can keep on operating.
One of the many services I offer is to loan them a similar printer, or even a brand new one, as a stop-gap replacement for the machine that’s been damaged for whatever reason, even by flood.
One client of mine runs a business centre with serviced offices for small firms in Dorking. I supply them with a Canon multi-functional printer which sits in the main reception so that everyone can use it. They all have their own access codes so they can be charged correctly for usage at the end of the month. I know that it’s crucial that the machine is always available.
Unfortunately, the other weekend, there had been a power cut and when the electricity came on again, the centre’s automatic flush toilets switched themselves permanently on, flooding the reception.
The paper tray on the printer ended up full of paper maché and the machine was totally dead by the time its owner came in on the Monday morning.
Fortunately, Trio Systems was able to get a new machine to them within a few days. We usually work with our regular delivery company to get a machine to a client as soon as we can, even if we have to rearrange other deliveries to get a loan machine onto the lorry.
Then we transferred all the users’ personal codes onto the new machine and they were ready to go, while we were able to liaise with insurance companies and get the claim dealt with.
If you’re looking for that extra bit of customer care or you’re interested in finding out more about how we supply your multi-functional printer needs, then please get in contact with me at Trio Systems or ring me on 0208 893 4455.

PaperCut could save time as well as paper in your office
Modern offices are so efficient and convenient these days. You can send a document from your desktop to the printer and it’ll be waiting for you at the office machine - no waiting around, no waste of paper - it’s far more efficient, yes?
Well… no. You waste time getting up and down from your desk all day, someone takes your printed letter by mistake or throws it in the bin, or you realise you’ve printed ten copies by mistake.
A more efficient way to control printing
At Trio Systems, we now sell a very popular document management software package by PaperCut that makes people wait at the printer for their work, and yet, counter-intuitively, it ends up saving you time and paper.
Even though I get paid by the copy, I’m recommending this to my customers, especially solicitors, accountants and schools, because of the amount of printing they do and the potential there is for cutting down massively on wastage.
The software only takes 30 minutes to install on your office server, no matter how many printers or multi-functional devices you have on your office network. We then put an app on each printer, which is the interface with the user, and you’re ready to go.
How PaperCut works
While you’re busy working at your desk, you send each completed document to the office server. Then, when it’s convenient, you can go and collect all your documents in one go from the printer of your choice.
Your documents aren’t waiting for you to collect (or getting picked up with someone else’s work). First you have to log in and look at your account, which makes you decide which print jobs you really need; then you hit the GO button and your account prints off only your selected documents – don’t worry, modern printers don’t keep you waiting very long – and you’re done, saving time and paper in the process.
And if a job remains unprinted after a set time, it’s automatically deleted, again saving paper and preventing annoying log-jams of old jobs.
Better control and auditing for your printer
As well as saving on paper wastage and time, PaperCut requires a PIN or swipe card system to access your account, so it tightens up office security.
And PaperCut stores all the information on who prints what, where and when, giving your office manager or financial department all the data they need to control the stationery budget.
Free trial
Recommending PaperCut may cut into my commission but I like giving my customers the right advice to solve their wastage problems.
So if you’re interested in cutting paper wastage, improving efficiency, increasing security and having greater budgetary control over your office, contact me at [email protected] or see http://bit.ly/2lUMeRH and we can talk about the 40-day free trial that PaperCut offers.
