Any of the following could be drivers in your business or organisation right now to do something about
the shear cost, volume or challenge in creating, managing, sharing and distributing documents and
important information...
The need to make savings...cost reduction!
Greater accountability at a project, client, departments or user level.
A fitter,leaner and more agile business
Overall staff efficiency & productivity
Better customer services..quicker access to key documents
Space optimisation & reduction
Mobility of services/resources & information for field based or home based knowledge workers
Compliance & legislation pressure
Business continuity/DR strategy
CSR & Green initiatives
The Chicken and the lightbulb....
Older office equipment
used as much as 700w
in standby...
That is enough to roast
2 Chickens/ hr in a
Microwave!
Office equipment (printers and copiers) use 80% of their
overall energy on standby. Older models are so energy hungry
they can cook your dinner...
Thankfully, things have
moved on... With
Canon’s new
technology, this is down
to just 1w. That is less
than an energy saving
light bulb !
The Paper Airplane
According to
Envirowise, the average
UK office worker
generates 1584 pages of
paper per month !
That is 2 trees per
person, per annum!!
IDC says 30% of it is
then wasted.
A new , no frills airline launches to take on Ryanair...?
No, just a representation of how many sheets of paper the average office worker
uses each month!
The Paper Iceberg
• Most companies only see the initial cost of hardware… 80% cant see what lies
beneath...
Hardware
Total Cost of
Ownership
Waste
Energy
consumption
Duplication of
devices &
processes
Analysts claim
that the true
cost of dealing
with a
document...
creating ,
storing,
managing,
retrieving and
distributing it
is 300 times
the original
output cost!!
Pulp Fiction or Paper Facts?
42% - amount of global wood harvest dedicated to paper production alone!
1 Ream of paper is 6% of a tree !
1 Ream (2kg) virgin paper generates 6.5kg of CO2 over its life time. (Source Eco Paper)
10% reduction in US office paper volumes ..“would prevent the emission of 1.6 million tons
of greenhouse gases—the equivalent of taking 280,000 cars off the road.” (*Blistree.com)
Americans alone, throw away enough paper to build a 12-foot high wall from New York to
San Francisco !
50% of jobs are left unclaimed at the printer (*IDC)
30% of documents are printed, read and then binned!
38 pages per day -printed by average UK office worker
11 Pages – waste produced in the doing 38 pages
£400 - £500 – annual expense per-employee of printing/copying/imaging

Tools and tips approaching your less paper
office...
• “You cant manage what you cant measure”
• You need proof of your costs and volumes and a strategy for how you can control
and reduce thereafter.
• Ensure you have fast if not instant ROI
• Gain sponsorship to do something about addressing the wastage and saving the
money
• Raise awareness of wastage and true costs to users
• Set rules around printing. Educate and drive change
• Incentivise best practice and “green savers”
• Recognise and reward against the company “Save-o-meter” for money
Rationalise devices,reduce power consumption…
•
•
•
•
•
Canon & HPs multifunctional office devices
achieve extremely low standby energy
consumption, as low as 1W
That’s up to 15 times less than an energy
saving light bulb !
As part of Canon’s ongoing energy efficiency
drive overall product energy consumption
during regular use has been reduced by a
massive 78% !!
Less devices, means less energy use.
Less devices means less consumable waste,
services and supplier headaches and less
costly space
Less Paper printing !

Standardise and your fleet as much as possible, it helps with ease of use, common print drivers and
flexibility of where you can print
Look at printer to user ratios. You may be printer dependent! Ratios of 1:4 are not healthy for the
bottom line! Get rid of older, expensive or local printers and reduce the overall amount of devices to a
less energy and consumable hungry, faster, more capable/versatile fleet.
Help your IT team and users with a standardised look and feel, a standardised driver & print server
environment.
Set a rules engine (default rules for applications such as email, duplex, colour or mono and purge the
unclaimed print jobs after a sensible time etc)
Monitor printer and user level data regularly and reward those who are changing habits, name and
shame the others!! 
Budget for TRUE document costs properly and get accountability systems to drive and facilitate sharing
across departments (departmental codes, cost awareness and even client recharging)
Address confidential printing, security & compliance concerns with secure document release technologies
Expect 15% reduction in volumes instantly
Expect 30% savings for fast ROI and significant net savings
Security, confidentiality,
24/7 reliability and total
flexibility are all
deliverable using Follow
Me or Secure Print
Solutions.
Users simply press print
and when convenient walk
up and blip their card or
enter their PIN to securely
release their jobs.
No stress, no hassle and
NO WASTE !

“The average company spends £11 to file a document and £67 to find a misfiled document. 7.5% of all
documents get lost, a further 3% misfiled with the average professional spending 50% of their time
looking for information !” Gartner Group
Stop spending on postage, duplicated copies and prints etc and distribute securely, electronically
Facilitate secure, collaborative, document sharing across the net and get your work flowing through work
flows
Stop wasting costly time hunting for important information and files..
Stop archiving in acres of vulnerable and expensive, off-site paper mountains or corridors of filing
cabinets
Get your documents digitised, your filing, structured & managed, your document capture streamlined
and automated and above all improve the access to your key asset...information
Less Paper Distribution...Making paperwork, work!
