With 55 years of office technology expertise, Stone’s Office Equipment knows what’s draining your budget—and how to fix it.
For many businesses, printing is a silent budget killer. Between outdated equipment, inconsistent maintenance, and runaway supply costs, your print environment could be costing more than you think.
In fact, 70% of companies have no idea what they spend on printing—and that lack of visibility leads to overspending, inefficiency, and missed savings.
At Stone’s Office Equipment, we’ve been helping Virginia businesses streamline operations and reduce print costs for over five decades. Our award-winning Managed Print Services (MPS) program is designed to simplify your workflow, eliminate waste, and save you money.
Here are 5 practical, proven ways to optimize your print environment:
1. Audit Your Current Print Setup
Before you can fix the problem, you need to understand it. A professional print audit identifies:
- Outdated, high-cost devices
- Unused or underused printers
- Identify print driver defaults (mono vs color)
- Wasted energy and paper
- Supply inefficiencies
Stone’s uses innovative diagnostic tools to uncover hidden costs and inefficiencies—and build a strategy that works for your business.
2. Consolidate Your Equipment
Are you juggling too many devices? It’s time to simplify. Replacing individual machines with modern multifunction printers (MFPs) can:
- Reduce hardware and maintenance costs
- Save office space
- Improve productivity
Our team helps you select the right-sized equipment for your actual needs—no more, no less.
3. Implement Print Management Software
Take control of your printing behavior with intelligent software. Features include:
- User-level tracking
- Print quotas and rules
- Automated supply reordering
This technology helps you reduce unnecessary printing and maintain productivity—without micromanaging employees.
4. Switch to Managed Print Services (MPS)
This is where Stone’s truly shines. Our MPS program gives you:
- Predictable monthly costs
- On-demand service and maintenance
- Proactive supply delivery
- Equipment upgrades as needed
You get a fully managed, optimized print environment—while you focus on running your business.
5. Embrace Green Printing Practices
Sustainability isn’t just good for the planet—it’s good for your bottom line.
Simple steps like:
- Duplex (double-sided) printing
- Using recycled paper
- Switching to ENERGY STAR-certified devices
…can result in measurable cost savings and align your brand with eco-conscious values.
