  • The affordability of enhanced functionality and faster printing capabilities
  • Cost tracking information and on going saving analysis
  • Flexibility in moving equipment around to fit changing needs
  • Centralized help desk and maintenance request hotline - with the status of a global account
  • Service Level Agreement for break/fix with maximum response time
  • Removal of obsolete equipment at no cost
  • Centralized billing and supply ordering
