A recent success story with our new 'Unlimited Print Plan' was a group of 8 childcare centres.

Each location had different finance contracts for their print devices, with different costs and end dates.

Pain Points

Office worker struggling with excessive paper documents highlighting rising printing expenses

Usage changes

Print volumes at childcare centres, like many businesses, vary significantly from month to month. For example, colour usage increases in enrolment months and in the lead up to holidays.

Spikes in cost

Print usage was billed in arrears resulting in unexpectedly high monthly bills, making accurate budgeting difficult.

Poor Service

Corrective, rather than preventative, maintenance meant frequent breakdowns affecting productivity and employee morale.

Multiple contracts

Contracts were started or varied at different points, making variations to meet changing needs almost impossible.

Our Solution

Business handshake agreement for managed print services solution

Our newly released Unlimited Print Plan

After a thorough analysis of the average usage history at each centre, an agreed monthly cost was set for each.

This monthly cost included:

Unlimited mono and colour monthly print usage
All new Canon multifunction copiers and printers, including comprehensive staff training.
All contracts were paid out, starting the new unlimited print plans at the same time with the same end dates.
Preventative maintenance to ensure high print quality throughout the life of the equipment; backed up by a guaranteed 4-hour COMPLETION time to fix breakdowns.

Conclusion

Traditional photocopier finance plans, such as managed print plans, photocopier rentals and photocopier leases all have their advantages; however, they all share a common disadvantage – inconsistent monthly costs that can easily increase.

Axia's Unlimited Print Plan resolves this issue – with NO cost per page, and NO fixed or minimum volume, we've eliminated the risk of unexpectedly high bills, giving businesses peace of mind while also making it easier to track & forecast expenses.
