Predictions concerning the demise of the print industry have been floating around for the last several decades. Ongoing comments like “print is dead,” and the utopian idea of the “paperless office” served to help solidify the notion that printers and copiers faced extinction in the minds of many of the Millennial Generation.

All companies should care about sustainability, and a great way to achieve that is to invest in Energy Star-approved multifunction printers and other devices. When you see an Energy Star label, you know that product has blazed past industry standards.

Some smart printers can translate documents into whatever language you desire. This means if you need half of your pamphlets to be in English and half to be in Spanish, you can accomplish that.
