There are multiple ways that duplex printing can save your office money and increase your bottom line.
Double-sided printing saves paper. By consistently printing on both sides of a sheet, your financial staff will end up using nearly half of the paper that they usually need. For example, let’s say your financial organization usually uses $3,000 worth of paper for printing needs each year. By switching to double-sided printing, the office could save up to $1,500 annually. Your financial organization could reinvest these savings into other areas of the business to reach new potential clients and increase efficiency.
Duplex printing is not only economically friendly, but it is also better for the environment. If everyone used half as much paper by printing on both sides of a sheet, there would be less of a need to cut down so many trees.
According to stopwaste.org, the pulp and paper industry is the largest industrial user of water, the biggest water polluter, and the third largest emitter of global warming pollution in most industrialized nations. Printing less paper could help combat those issues facing our environment.
In addition to decreasing paper spending costs, duplex printing also lowers energy costs. As is the case with paper, using less energy will decrease your financial office’s expenses. Using double-sided printing to create 2 pages on 1 sheet requires less energy than printing 2 pages single-sided. This means that duplex printing is more efficient and will create less strain on your office’s multifunction printers.
Decreasing your organization’s energy usage in turn decreases the pollutants associated with delivering that energy. It may only be a small amount, but if everyone uses just a little less energy, it could go a long way toward preserving our planet.
