Even in the new era of cloud computing, where file-sharing, smartphones and tablets have become a common feature in business communication and collaboration, information printout still forms a larger part of how businesses share information with employees, customers, partners and other external bodies.
KDS Direct aims to bring flexibility and efficiency to the process and help all your employees to access a single printer through your existing computer network infrastructure. Thus, the release of three new ECOSYS A4 workgroup printers on its Web store (www.kdsdirect.co.za).
What is a workgroup printer?
A workgroup printer accepts print jobs from multiple users/workers on your company's computer network.
The printer has its own memory, a processor which is similar to that of a computer, and a hard drive for storing print jobs. The memory of a workgroup printer can be increased in order to accept more print jobs and improve output efficiency.
Workgroup printers are interoperable, allowing users to access them from various devices and operating systems (Windows, Mac and Linux).
How does a workgroup printer benefit your business?
When you have multiple users that need their own dedicated printer, the cost of maintenance can spiral out of control.
A workgroup printer is capable of handling print jobs from 10 or more users. Instead of buying a printer and supplies for each workstation, all costs are allocated to the few network printers serving the entire workplace.
Workgroup printers are therefore a viable alternative to printing cost savings.
