How It Works

Step 1: Review Your Needs

The first thing we do when reviewing your print needs is determine the true cost of printing a page.

To answer this question, we consider the following costs:

  • Hardware acquisition
  • Supplies
  • Service labour
  • Parts
  • Internal staff

You’ll be surprised by how much time it takes to manage your print fleet and how much money it costs to print a page.

Here’s what this process looks like:

  1. Carlyle adds a dedicated collection agent (DCA) to your print server.
  2. The software collects performance information on your network’s printers and copiers.
  3. The data collected includes the number of pages printed in monochrome and colour, the age of the device, and any service alerts.
  4. Once this information is gathered, we calculate the cost of printing a page.

We have the unique ability to generate savings for our clients in all areas of printing. The results are significant!


Step 2: Finding the Right Solution for Your Business

During step two, we find a solution that will work for your business. We determine what, why, and how your team is currently printing. The goal is to reduce your printing costs.

This can be done in a number of ways:

  1. Reduce the total cost of printing.
  2. Reduce the amount of printing you do (e.g. duplex printing, automatically selecting B/W instead of colour, etc.).
  3. Educate your team on cost effective print practices.
  4. Managing your existing device as is or getting an upgrade recommendation.
  5. Reduce internal time spent on print issues (e.g. handling service issues, purchasing supplies, etc.).

Step 3: Review and Maintain

During step three, Carlyle conducts “constant monitoring” which:

  1. Monitors your toner levels and arranges for it to be shipped to you proactively. This means you won’t have to worry about generating a separate PO.
  2. Monitors printer service alerts and sets up preventive maintenance calls based on the readings.
  3. Reviews page usage to see what the utilization rates are (i.e. is the printer significantly over or under worked?).

This information is communicated to your team in a review process annually, semi-annually, or quarterly (depending on your preference).

This analysis keeps your fleet performing efficiently, and identifies areas of potential savings.

Upon completion of our no-obligation assessment of your print fleet, we’ll provide you with the following information:

  1. A detailed cost breakdown for the three areas of printing (supplies, hardware, and service).
  2. Recommendations on how to increase your office efficiency.
  3. A detailed cost-per-page breakdown for your desktop printers.
  4. A monthly print volume breakdown by area of the company.
  5. An analysis of printer utilization as compared to recommended monthly volumes.
  6. An analysis of printer volumes compared to useful life.
