Copy
centers equipped with CostWare cost collection devices can be configured
to make the best use of resources.
One cost collection device can be used to control any number of
copiers. In addition, one
copier may be controlled from more than one cost collection device.
No two copy centers are alike, therefore the typical workload and
staffing of the copy center will generally dictate the best
configuration for a center. The
flexibility of the CostWare solution means that cost collection devices
may be deployed in a manner that best suits a particular environment.
With CostWare, a copy center no longer needs to work around the
limitations of a legacy cost collection device.
