If you’re looking for ways to improve organizational efficiency, increase productivity, reduce time spent looking for documents, and strengthen interdepartmental collaboration, taking your workplace digital can be the right solution.
When fax machines were first introduced they revolutionized document transmission and communications—and whether your organization still utilizes fax technology or prefers to conduct business in the digital realm, chances are you still have one or more of these devices in your office today. Unfortunately, your standalone fax machine or the fax component on your all-in-one printer can put your entire network at risk of theft or attack from hackers, but there is a solution. Read on to learn more about how your outdated office technology can be used against you and the best ways to increase your network printer security.
Is your multifunction printer connected to your network? Of course, it makes perfect sense: multiple employees can easily access the device to fax, print, scan, copy, send files and store documents. Next question – have you protected the device with the same level of security as the network it’s connected to?
Today, we often use the terms copier and multifunction printer interchangeably, but the fact is they have some pretty significant differences. If you’re in the market for a new machine, start by evaluating your needs. Machine size and features should play a role in your decision so be sure to consider the number of users and the functions they’ll need before you take the leap.
The copier plays an integral role in the workplace and is the hub for printing, copying, scanning, and faxing. Despite their heavy reliance on copiers, some businesses are reluctant to upgrade because of budgetary concerns, or they simply don’t see a need to do so – if it still works, why make the change now? However, hanging onto an aging copier that is “good enough” could be slowing down your business.
You have locks on your office and an alarm system to protect your business from intruders, but are you leaving the doors unlocked for someone on the inside to access confidential documents?

2018 seemed to be the year of the data breach. From Facebook, to Under Armour, to Equifax, it seems like we were hearing about a major cyber attack every couple of weeks. While a cyber attack can be hard to predict, and the battle to protect user data will continue, there are some interesting technology trends that we’ll see in 2019 that can help you to grow your business, improve your team’s productivity and keep your business safe and secure in the new year.
Do you ask “curveball” questions to identify the most creative job prospects like – “How would you sell hot chocolate in Florida?” Fortunately for job seekers, recent studies found that these questions are as silly as they sound. In fact, big companies like Google have been phasing them out.
Office electronics including desktop computers, tablets, smartphones, and printers are an investment towards the future and success of your business. While you may be tempted to save money by using your aging equipment until the day it breaks down, this strategy can wind up costing you more in the long run through a loss of productivity and unnecessary expenses. Read on to learn the value of upgrading your printer and the many ways a new model can help to increase efficiency and your bottom line.
