The ROI Behind the Tech


When it comes to office efficiency, every device plays a role — and few are more critical than your printers. But if you’re still using single-function devices (one for printing, another for scanning, a separate fax machine…), it might be time to rethink your setup.



Why Upgrade?

Here’s why more businesses in Lafayette and Broussard are making the switch to Multifunction Printers (MFPs) — and how it’s impacting their bottom line.



1. Lower Total Cost of Ownership


Yes, MFPs cost more upfront. But the long-term savings are undeniable:


  • Fewer machines to maintain

  • Less power consumption

  • Fewer vendors and service calls

  • Centralized supply orders (one toner vs. three)


Result: Fewer headaches and predictable monthly costs — something every Lafayette office can appreciate.



2. Productivity That Pays Off


Switching between machines? Waiting on someone to finish at the copier? Those lost minutes add up.


  • Print

  • Copy

  • Scan

  • Fax

  • Secure release printing

  • Cloud integrations (like Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint)


You cut out delays and keep your team moving — especially in fast-paced offices across Broussard.



3. Security You Can Count On


Modern MFPs like the Lexmark XM series or Ricoh IM C-series come standard with enterprise-level security:

  • User authentication

  • Encrypted transmissions

  • Audit trails and compliance logs

  • Secure print release


If your business handles financial records, legal documents, or patient data — this isn’t optional. And for Lafayette healthcare and law firms, it’s becoming essential.



4. Remote Work Compatibility


Need to scan from the office and share it with a remote team in Houma?

Print from your phone while you’re at a job site?


With mobile printing and cloud-scan features, today’s MFPs support flexible work — something that’s here to stay.



5. Scalability by Upgrading


As your team grows, so can your MFP setup. Upgrading by adding finishing options like staplers, fold units, or extra trays. Integrate with your document management system. Or set up multiple user profiles by department.


It’s future-proof printing for evolving businesses.



Is It Time to Upgrade?


If your Lafayette or Broussard office is juggling multiple machines, dealing with print downtime, or struggling to control costs — an MFP might be the right move.
