Costs
Unmanaged
•	 Today’s environment
•	 One of the last unmanaged
costs for businesses
•	 Up to 90% of organizations
do not track the cost of
printing documents

conducted before recommending or
implementing a MPS program; such as
RJ Young’s T.O.P.S. Assessment (Total
Organizational Print Study)
•	 Organization-wide assessment of
printing environment
•	 Map employee and document workflows

SUMMARY
CURRENT SITUATION
Current Printer Fleet includes the
following equipment:
Total Number of Printers: 267
Monthly Volume: 220,000
Current price for printer supplies:
• Monthly @ 5% $20,635
• Monthly @ 10% $41,270
• Of the printers, 186 are locally connected
(mostly inkjet) and 68 are network
connected devices
• 16 different manufacturers and 134
different models
• 117 of the 267 printers are HP devices
Current Fleet includes the following
equipment:
Copier Based MFPs*
Total Number of MFPs: 12 4 different resellers
Monthly Volume: 47,900
Current Leases: $2,741.35
Current SMP: $1,096.06
Total: $3,837.41
Too many vendors, too many invoices.
Buckman Labs currently receives multiple
invoices from different vendors for leases,
supplies, maintenance, and Supply/
Maintenance programs.
Decentralized decision making.
Equipment purchasing decisions are handled
within multiple departments.
No overall plan or cost containment.
Supply AND equipment purchasing decisions
for printers are made on an as needed basis
with no planning or cost management
program.
No standardization of 3rd party
agreements.
Sporadic lease end terms create an enormous
opportunity for late fees, penalties and
accidental renewals.
No plan for levering assets or
obsolescence.
Aging fleet lends to not utilizing your
equipment effectively and offers no
obsolescence plan. Also, it makes no sense
to use single function devices any longer.
No online monitoring of usage for each
device.
You’re left with no way to effectively
manage your fleet.
Non-networked devices cannot be
effectively managed.
Leads to higher fleet and output costs.
