The solution really does work for us and is inexpensive. Every time it just works.

It is only when you undertake this kind of exercise that you realise how much we print and copy, the financial impact is bigger than we imagined and we are not that large a college.

Pcounter provides total accountability and accurate assessment of print volumes, crucial with the scale of printing we are now experiencing.

As part of phase two, Warter Priory’s alarm system was integrated into the new access control solution to give the estate manager a more robust overall security system, so making incident detection easier.

Working with AIT to find a future proof system that provides transaction information in real time was so easy.

Since we started to introduce cloud (pull print) printing in 2012, 11 million unwanted pages have been automatically deleted that would otherwise have just printed.

We moved to the Pcounter system because we wanted to develop a corporate business-like approach to print and copy provision across the institution. The central print room provided facilities to various academic departments while student facilities were limited to copy. We wanted to merge the copying and printing facilities using multifunctional devices that provided print, copy, fax and scanning, and Pcounter allowed us to achieve that. Because Pcounter is scalable across the organisation it will enable us to integrate all our print and design services. It also has the capability to integrate with the Océ Prisma job management system that we use.

The solution has subsequently proved to deliver exactly what was intended,a streamline and problem free ID card service.

AIT understood what the college was trying to achieve and offered a practical and cost effective solution to deliver this. We now have a robust base which we can extend to include other services such as cashless payments.
