Print Cost Reduction Checklist

A practical 10-point checklist to identify hidden print costs, consolidate devices, and reduce total cost of ownership across your organisation.

10 Steps to Cut Print Costs

Step 1

Audit every printer, copier, and multifunction device across all locations.

Step 2

Identify under-utilised or over-specced devices suitable for consolidation.

Step 3

Map monthly page volumes by device, department, and document type.

Step 4

Calculate total cost of ownership including hardware, consumables, service, and IT labour.

Step 5

Review default print settings and enforce duplex, mono, and secure release where appropriate.

Step 6

Eliminate personal desktop printers and redirect work to shared, efficient MFDs.

Step 7

Implement print quotas, departmental chargebacks, and usage reporting.

Step 8

Consolidate supply vendors and negotiate volume-based service agreements.

Step 9

Add pull printing and secure release to reduce abandoned and confidential prints.

Step 10

Benchmark results quarterly and continuously optimise device placement and policies.
