Managed Print Services Blogging - "...What do You Get Out of This?"
Speechless...almost.
Part Two of the world-famous, PHOTIZO 2010 Managed Print Services Conference interview with Ken Stewart and me, Greg Walters.
Burning up the Internet? The latest viral phenom? Negative.
Fun. That's all.
This was at THE 2010 Managed Print Services Conference in San Antonio - not a Trekkie or Comic or Dragon Con. Copiers, printers, output. Is there any reason at all that could possibly prevent us from having a little fun, celebrating our unique position in history AND learning from our peers, our fellow MPS Pioneers?
"No, Greg, there is absolutely no reason we shouldn't have fun..." - good answer.
The 2011 Managed Print Services Conference is slated for May 2, in Orlando. After the show in Barcelona, the Orlando buzz is starting.
One question - Will Orlando ever be the same? Here is part 2 and 3. Part one is here. If after viewing you need to wash your brain, check out the Kings of Leon vid.
Great shots of LA at night. Enjoy.

Managed Print Services: Cost reduction or 30-40% WASTE Reduction
Here's a quick notion.
What's the difference between "cost" and "waste"?
(Not that this question would be part of any DOTC MPS Professional Certification)
Cost - "An amount paid or required in payment for a purchase; a price..."
Waste - "To use, consume, spend, or expend thoughtlessly or carelessly..."
Cost is the 'acceptable' amount of money you will pay for the water bill each month; waste is the act of leaving the water hose on over the weekend.
Do you see the difference?
Let's continue.
Consider: did all this 30-40% savings simply show up with the advent of MPS?
Weren't there closets full of toner cartridges, back in 2006?
Weren't companies leasing machines with 11x17 capacity, and never using 11x17, back in 2005?
How long has scanning been available? How about ECM and EDM? Or fax servers?
Waste vs. Cost.
