That’s where Toshiba’s Elevate Sky platform comes in. This cloud-based suite helps educational institutions simplify, secure, and streamline how they handle documents and printing, while saving money and supporting sustainability goals.
Here are five ways Elevate Sky helps schools work smarter, not harder:
1. Simplifies IT Management
Elevate Sky eliminates the need for on-premise print servers, allowing administrators to manage an entire fleet of devices from one cloud-based dashboard. IT teams gain a unified view of print activity, device health, and user access, reducing maintenance and freeing up time for higher-priority technology initiatives.
2. Reduces Costs and Waste
With full visibility into printing habits across the district, schools can set user quotas, restrict color printing, and automatically enforce duplex printing. These features not only reduce unnecessary paper and toner use but also support green initiatives and budget goals.
3. Improves Communication with Multilingual Families
For districts serving diverse communities, clear communication is critical. The Elevate Sky Translate feature allows staff to scan a document at a multifunction printer and instantly translate it into one of 190+ languages. Enrollment forms, newsletters, and parent notices can be quickly translated, helping schools meet language access requirements and build stronger family connections.
4. Enables Secure & Mobile Printing
In a world of mobile devices and hybrid classrooms, Elevate Sky ensures that printing remains secure and convenient. Teachers and staff can print from laptops, tablets, or Chromebooks, and documents are only released when the user authenticates at the device. That means no sensitive student or personnel information is left unattended.
5. Streamlines Administrative Workflows
Elevate Sky Workflow digitizes paper documents and routes them automatically, whether that’s student records, HR files, or purchase orders. By replacing manual data entry and filing with automated processes, schools can save time, reduce errors, and ensure documents are stored securely and compliantly.
The Result: More Time for What Matters Most
By automating routine administrative tasks and improving access to information, Elevate Sky helps schools focus on educating and supporting students. With centralized management, cost control, and enhanced security, it’s a powerful tool for modern learning environments.
