Printer sprawl happens when printers are acquired and installed piecemeal based on a current/tactical printing need. After a few years of printer sprawl, many different devices are on a network, each with their own drivers and unique consumables.
Some IT groups play printer whack-a-mole (unplugging devices as they pop-up), some simply make users happy by supporting the new devices and some IT groups are using (or are considering) Managed Print Services to help reduce printer sprawl.
But tackling the hardware is only part of the process - you need software as well to manage printing processes and improve document-based information delivery processes.
That's where AXIAR Green, Paper Saving Software, plays a vital role: giving IT personnel both metrics-collection tools as well as print management tools to reduce print resource use, justify printer allocation and reduce IT help desk calls.
If you are currently considering Managed Print Services, we encourage you to contact us as print environment Consultants. We will help you identify ways to right-size your printer fleet while improving your printing processes. Since we do not sell printers or copiers, we are focused on identifying wasteful printing processes and employing our paper saving software to reduce waste.

Is Paper Saving Software Right (or Left)?
Regardless of where an idea started, I don't think it matters if a good idea comes from the "left" or the "right"; if it's a good idea it deserves to be heard.
If you only look at the extremes, the green/sustainable movement can appear anti-business/anti-consumption, while an extreme pro-business outlook can appear anti-environment. Both viewpoints, however, need the other to thrive. Business needs to sensibly apply green/sustainable practices to satisfy consumer demand for responsible corporate behavior and consumers need to reward good behavior with their purchasing dollars.
There is a lot of common ground, and I believe there are a lot of sensible people who see the value in sustainable business practices.
And this is where we see paper saving software playing a role: if you'd like to implement a green/sustainable initiative at your office that saves your company money and improves the speed of business-critical information delivery, paper saving software from LBM Systems is a great option. Paper saving software is pro-business (saves money and accelerates document workflows) and pro-environment (reduces waste and overconsumption).
We are saving paper at thousands of offices around the world and we can help you, too. You can learn more by reading the 'Green Paper' on this blog, watching the movies on this blog, going to www.PaperSavingSoftware.com or contact us any time.
The question I have for you is: can we meet on this common ground? If yes, then let's talk about your office paper use and figure out a way to save you money and reduce the waste you create...if no, well then let's talk anyway and you can tell me why paper saving software isn't a good idea. I appreciate hearing from sensible people with both supporting and opposing viewpoints.

Reducing office waste
I have a responsibility to my company to reduce any expenses that are wasteful. I have a responsibility to my community - and my kids - to reduce the waste I create with my everyday purchases. Neither responsiblity presumes that consuming goods is wrong - but wasteful consumption is worth addressing.
We address a chronic area of waste in business and government environments: office printing and copying. We don't believe "paperless" is the right term (since we're not anti-printing); we believe "paper saving" is a better description.
We have a simple premise: we develop software that automatically reduces the amount of paper your organization uses by applying customizable rules to print jobs. Our software is already used at thousands of customer sites worldwide, saving millions and millions of pieces of paper every year. By saving paper and toner, our software pays for itself. And you get the dollar savings and resource savings every time you use it.
I know since you made it this far you don't like waste, so I hope you'll agree that I didn't waste the most precious resource of all: your time. Thank you for checking us out, I would love to hear from you through this blog or give me a call - and visit www.PaperSavingSoftware.com to learn more about what we do.
