Why have ‘big shared printers’ (aka multi‐functional devices or MFDs) been installed?

0

MFDs can print, scan, photocopy and fax as required. They are more efficient than desk top devices (printers and scanners) on a number of fronts including energy, paper / toner use, time and cost. A number of schools at UEL have already replaced the majority of desk top printers with MFDs, including CITE and Financial Services. Other departments have MFDs but haven’t necessarily removed desk top devices, therefore not making the most of potential environmental and efficiency savings. Humanities & Social Sciences (HSS), Health & Biosciences (H&B) and External & Strategic Development Services (ESDS) have been chosen to take part in a pilot to move wholly towards the use of MFDs therefore helping to reduce the environmental impact of UEL.
