🕴️ The Busy Professional’s Guide to Copier Efficiency
Because you’ve got more important things to do than wait at the copier. Use these fast, smart tips to get in, get it done, and move on.
⏱️ 1. Set It and Forget It — Use Presets
-
Save your frequent tasks (e.g., double-sided B&W, scan to email) as one-touch shortcuts.
-
No need to reconfigure every time.
📄 2. Preview Before You Print
-
Avoid reprints and paper waste by always checking the print preview.
-
For large jobs, send a test copy first.
🔁 3. Batch and Automate
-
Group similar documents together and print/copy in bulk.
-
Use features like collate, staple, and hole-punch so you don’t have to do it manually later.
📥 4. Skip the Paper—Go Digital
-
Scan to email, network folder, or USB instead of copying.

Digitize meeting notes, contracts, and reports with ease.

Fan paper before loading.

Use the correct paper type and keep trays clean and dry.

Don’t open drawers mid-job.
🧼 6. Keep Output Professional

Clean the scanner glass weekly for smudge-free scans and prints.

Check toner levels and replace before quality drops.
🔐 7. Use Secure Printing When Needed
-
Protect sensitive documents with PIN-based secure printing.
-
Print only when you’re at the machine.
⚠️ 8. Know When to Escalate
-
If a jam, error, or print issue happens more than once—report it early.

Don’t waste time trying the same fix over and over.
