Law Firms can Reduce Waste and Save Money with Double-Sided Printing

By Higher Information Group | Legal

As the cost of doing business continues to grow, legal firms are looking for ways to save money. One great way a law practice can cut back on business expenses is to use duplex printing. This is the process of printing on both sides of a sheet of paper rather than just one. There are multiple ways that duplex printing can save a law firm money and increase its bottom line.

Double-sided printing saves paper. By consistently printing on both sides of a sheet, your legal team will end up using nearly half of the paper that they usually need. For example, let’s say your law practice usually uses $3,000 worth of paper for printing needs each year. By switching to double-sided printing, the firm could save up to $1,500 annually. You could reinvest these savings into other areas of the business to reach new potential legal 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 for law offices. As is the case with paper, using less energy will decrease your law firm’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 firm’s multifunction printers. Decreasing your law firm’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 towards preserving our planet.
