Toshiba America Business Solutions And Print Audit Join Forces

Press release from the issuing company

IRVINE, Calif., (Nov. 3, 2003) – Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. (TABS) recently joined forces with Print Audit, Inc. to introduce Print Audit 4 and Print Audit Analysis, comprehensive print-monitoring software designed to help companies optimize their printer network and reduce printing costs by 10 to 20 percent – a significant savings for many companies as printing is often reported as a top five cost variable. Print Audit provides companies complete data collection and client-based analysis capabilities to reveal the detailed activities of the entire printer network, including networked, local and direct to IP printers. “Print Audit allows companies to track how documents are being printed and handled throughout their network, identify untapped efficiencies, and optimize their printer network – resulting in significant costs savings,” said Michael Szot, product manager, Solutions, TABS. “Print Audit software is yet another product offering from Toshiba that demonstrates our commitment to providing customers a total solutions package of hardware and software to benefit their overall business and bottom line.” Ideal for large organizations with a significant number of printing devices, such as government departments, educational organizations and companies which charge users or clients for costs, Print Audit provides the analysis needed to reduce printing costs by increasing user awareness, optimizing job deployment and improving equipment efficiency. Print Audit also allows organizations to capture data, which can easily be exported for accounting, billing and reporting purposes. Information such as customer name or code, number of pages and color versus black and white can be tracked for simple and customizable cost recovery.
