A few issues
back, we included the following sidebar about waste reduction; given
Steve's comments in the introduction, it seems appropriate to re-run it:
* * * * *
Over the years, GoPrint has enabled customers to save a lot of paper by reducing wasted printing.
Let's think about what this means -- according to Conservatree.com, one tree is worth about 16.7 reams of paper.
If everyone of our customers saved only three reams per day, that would be over 15,000 trees per year!

Greetings,
Summer is here - a busy time for folks scrambling to make
system changes, meet budget deadlines and prepare for next fall; it's also a
time when many can take a much needed vacation to recharge those personal batteries.
Here's wishing you all a productive and refreshing summer.
On another note, rising costs are on everyone's mind these
days. Fuel is at unprecedented price levels; food prices are going up. Controlling or recovering costs where possible
is becoming more important than ever before, and, as you know, the ability to control
and recover printing cost is the benefit GoPrint provides.
Our customers have different operational philosophies for
their GoPrint system:
- Many
really want to fully recover costs and charge their users accordingly
- Some
just want their users to review sent print jobs and to exercise restraint,
so they have a release system without actually charging
- Others
give their users a generous allowance of free prints, but do charge after
the allowance has been consumed, as sort of a penalty function for
excessive printing.
- Most of
our customers use GoPrint's ability to charge a different (lower) price
for duplexing to encourage conservation of paper.
- A few
use GoPrint's ability to charge different rates at different times of day to
influence and reduce peak time usage of their facilities.
Different philosophies and implementations among our
customers certainly, but the bottom line is the same - it's the bottom line;
GoPrint can be beneficial to your budget and save a few trees as well. Here's a
statistic we're proud of; you've probably heard it from us before, but it's
worth repeating:
Many of our customers who don't
even charge their users for printing realize as much as forty per cent reduction in wasted prints!
Have a great summer,
Steve Haber
President

GoPrint Tech Notes: Treating Guests Graciously
|
|
Many colleges and universities that provide computing
facilities for their students are also obligated to accommodate walk-in public
guest users.
When a pay for print system is in place, how can these walk-in
users be integrated into the system in a way that is user-friendly for them and
minimizes the administrative burden or overhead for the institution?

guest handling with the capabilities of your current system from the

hardware and/or software options, please contact your GoPrint Sales
