Functionality Overview
Cost Preview
What it does:
-Calculates the cost of a print job, and displays it to the end user
-Allows end users to cancel a print job, after reviewing the cost
-Increases end user awareness of printing costs
Usage Reporting
What it does:
Accurately charge documents to specific department to cost center codes
Accurately charge documents to specific client or matter codes Legal
Tracks the costs of document attributes such as file or paper size, media type, color, duplexing, stitching and more
Creates different charging schedules for internal and external customers
Provides better visibility into usage
Increases revenue opportunities for the customer
Monitor, Measure and Manage Costs
Excessive
Color Use
Over utilized
Under utilized
10
And, because the Equitrac system maintains a robust accounting and audit trail database you can review a wide range of standard reports or build your own custom reports to view your costs by user or user group and by device or device group or type.
For instance you'd be able to look for a range of potential issues such as excessive color use.
You can also view the savings provided by the rules you establish and by jobs deleted from the Follow You print queue without ever having been output.
This information allows you to then refine your print rules to continuously manage costs or this same information can be used to bill costs to departments allowing managers to take appropriate actions to save their budgets
Or you can review device utilization and cost rates to determine which systems to replace or redeploy maximizing your investments.
With Equitrac's robust cost reporting you can truly monitor, measure and manage your output costs.
Print Rules & Routing
What they do:
Modify end user print behavior
Gives administrator ability to predetermine who may print to which devices, based on attributes of a print job (color, number of pages, etc).
Enables administrator to enforce duplex, black and white or re-route jobs to more efficient print devices.
Printing Rules - Benefits
Greater Cost Control
End User Behavior Modification
Implement Print Strategies in line with Corporate Objectives (reduce waste, green strategies)
Control color and application-specific printing (Email, Internet, etc)
Helps make Help Desk life easier
Print Rules and RoutingRe-route job based on number of pages

With Equitrac, you can easily set a rule that all jobs over 10 pages sent to desktop devices will be re-routed to departmental devices.
*1 When a user attempts to print a fifty page job to a desktop printer.
*2 The system will look at the job, apply the rule that this is greater than ten pages and redirect to a mid-volume device more suitable for this type of job. *3 The system will then advise the end user that the job has, in fact, been redirected.
Even larger jobs could be sent to larger devices or the central repro department maximizing the use of that asset and providing significant cost reduction.

Three weeks of wasted paper from
Vanderbilt University School of Business
21
The students of Vanderbilt actually took the time to build a paper tree to show how much wasted paper goes through just one School in three weeks time. You can multiple this out to the thousands of universities across the country and see what kind of environmental impact we could have if just a few simple technologies were implemented as a best practice.

Equitrac Professional Delivers Proven Results Companies like yours are already seeing results from Equitrac Professional:
Sedgwick, Detert, Moran & Arnold LLP.
This 400-attorney international law fi rm wanted to upgrade its cost recovery system in nine U.S. offi ces, as well as add several new capabilities, as quickly and painlessly as possible. Installation of Equitrac Professional was completed for all nine offi ces in just one month. The fi rm can now easily capture client-matter codes for copies and faxes via the TouchPoint Console, as well as import electronically invoiced expenses and use expanded reporting options to improve executive decision-making.
Ogden Murphy Wallace, P.L.L.C.
With offi ces in Seattle and Wenatchee, Washington, this 45-attorney fi rm needed to distinguish print costs from copy costs on MFPs that performed both functions, then recover these costs from clients without adding cost recovery hardware. After upgrading to Equitrac Professional with an embedded MFP interface, the fi rm was able to track printing accurately and generate detailed activity reports. It expects full payback in less than one year.
