The real cost

Schools budget for one thing, and pay for six.

Most schools underestimate the true total cost of ownership of their printing. The device price is the part everyone budgets for. It is rarely the part that hurts.

What you budgeted forThe device itself
Hidden cost 1Ink and toner replenishment
Hidden cost 2Paper overuse and wastage
Hidden cost 3Ongoing maintenance and emergency repairs
Hidden cost 4Rising energy consumption
Hidden cost 5Replacing ageing or inefficient components

Beyond the initial purchase, the ongoing and often hidden costs add up quickly. They land across several different budget lines, which is exactly why nobody ever sees the total.

How we help

Three problems, solved properly.

Our managed print services for education remove the burden by delivering a fully managed, transparent and optimised print environment.

Hidden printing costs

We provide managed print solutions that give schools full visibility of their print usage and costs, helping reduce waste and cut unnecessary spending.

Time wasted on printer issues

Our reliable, modern print devices are designed for high-volume education environments, ensuring fast, dependable performance that keeps staff productive.

IT team overload

We take over the day-to-day management of print devices, freeing up IT teams to concentrate on strategic improvements and digital learning initiatives.

Rental and leasing

Latest technology, no capital outlay.

To support tight budgets and long-term planning, we offer flexible printer rental and leasing for educational institutions. Schools and MATs get the latest technology without a large upfront capital cost, with predictable monthly expenditure and ongoing support behind it.

  • No large upfront cost. Capital stays where it is needed, and the fleet still gets replaced on schedule.
  • Predictable monthly spend. One figure you can put in a budget and defend to governors.
  • Short-term or long-term. Rental for a term or a project, leasing for the long run. We tailor it to your operational and financial requirements.

Case study

What it looked like at a Norfolk academy.

Secondary and sixth form academy, Norfolk

1,250 students, one managed fleet.

A secondary and sixth form academy specialising in science and applied learning, supporting approximately 1,250 students.

What they needed

A hybrid managed print solution that paired the right hardware with a long-term strategy to reduce print costs year on year, while improving security and reliability.

What we did

We implemented a fleet of managed multifunction printers with:

  • Secure printing integrated with the academy's building access systems
  • Intelligent scanning to stop documents reaching the wrong destination
  • End-to-end document workflows covering capture, print and mailroom processes

How it landed

Delivered across a multi-national platform, meeting global standards while integrating with the academy's pre-approved software environment, and planned so staff and students saw minimal disruption.
