The Problem

There was no simple, efficient way to manage mounting print waste, lax security, and critical scanning functionality. The direct printing environment had to shift to a more centralized system that reduced IT resources.

Entertainment Partners (EP) is a global leader in payroll, workforce management, and other integrated production solutions for the entertainment industry. With 10 offices in the US and 1,187 employees, Entertainment Partners is striving to reinvent how the industry works and interacts to make production simpler.

The Brief

 The Solution

We installed PaperCut MF throughout their organization. EP was able to downsize from 100 to 20 multifunction devices (MFP) devices. With Integrated Scanning and Secure Print Release software, users can now swipe their badge to access any authorized device and scan documents directly to their email, folders, or cloud storage provider. With user/device reports, EP has visibility into device and user behaviors to encourage smart printing – leaving old storage areas for paper virtually empty.

Implementation completed 8 months sooner than anticipated leading to a drastically shorter ROI cycle. Secure print encouraged eco-friendly use and reduced uncollected print jobs has reduced clutter and print costs.
