Our specialty at Quality Imaging Solutions is providing a more concierge approach to indirect spend reduction and cost avoidance on printer toner cartridge supplies, consumables and hardware.

The pandemic allowed commerce to continue with companies allowing employees to #WFH and continue even with #HybridWorkEnvironments.....giving out home-office “allowances” for purchases like monitors, keyboards….and yes, you guessed it….better work from home office printers. The downside of this was that specifically printer ink and toner spend became #RogueSpend as there were no requirements for printer model standardization.

We are thrilled to announce the partnership between Quality Imaging Solutions LLC and Procurement Foundry.

Unfortunately, we’ve likely all had to deal with at one time or another, getting ink or toner on our hands or on our clothing accidentally. Maybe when changing out the cartridge, or perhaps when shaking a toner cartridge as it got closer to its end of life, to loosen up loose toner powder inside and squeak by for another couple of days.

Do you know where your printer toner cartridges come from? And more importantly, do you know why you should care?

As we approach the end of the calendar year – and for many of you, the end of your fiscal first quarter, let’s discuss the ways sloppy indirect spend data is costing your company a ton of money without you knowing it.

Are your printers running out of toner too quickly? Extended yield cartridges can keep them printing longer, surpassing the highest page yields of national printer brands.

Over 350,000,000 empty cartridges end up in our landfills each year, nationwide. That takes 1,000 years for them to decompose!

More than ever before, we are in an age where #Procurement demands the following:

Did you know that ​compared to an overall industry average ​of 6.1 %, legal services organizations ​have reported that printing costs can run in the range of ​13.7% of their revenue​ on internal and external document production​, and that they are not able to accurately measure their printing costs.

Do you know how much your organization spends on printing each year? If the answer is "no", you are not alone.

For every $1 spend printing a single page, costs another $9 to manage it. Managed print can help you capture your total cost of ownership on your printing needs in order to reduce direct and related expenditures.

Do you know how much your company spends on printing each year?

With over 350 million single-use printer cartridges flooding landfills every year, the print industry takes a hard hit when it comes to environmental responsibility. Learn how Quality Imaging Solutions and its brand partners are revolutionizing sustainability practices and how you can join us in making a massive impact on the positive health of our planet.
