039 | Why all schools need print management software

Schools print a lot. Specifically, schools, from K-12 to higher education, spend approximately 10% of their annual budget on printing. Assignments, worksheets, letterheads, records, essays, study guides, study notes, readings, tests - all of that is merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the various document types printed by students and staff in schools. It is therefore vital that schools have print management software to control and administer their printing environments. On this deep dive episode, Print Geeks founding member PaperCutter Al drops by the pod booth to discuss in-depth with PaperCutter Kieron why all schools need print management software.
