2020 proved to businesses that being agile is a good thing. With the COVID-19 pandemic closing offices and forcing professionals to work remotely from home, those organizations that were prepared to support their employees outside of the traditional workplace were better positioned to resume their operations with minimum snags. This enabled their staff to continue to get their job done effectively and efficiently. Those businesses were agile, and it paid off for them.

A simple way to achieve agility as a business is through mobile printing. But what exactly is meant by mobile printing, and what do we stand to benefit from it?

Simply put, mobile printing is the ability to send a print job from a mobile device such as a smartphone, laptop, or tablet. The technology supporting these devices provides us with the ability to access and work with documents wherever we are; however, printing these documents from said devices can be problematic. Users can be forced to send the document they want to print to another device or person to be able to connect to a printer, which is hardly convenient. Mobile printing enables you to wirelessly print on-the-go directly from your mobile device without involving any additional steps. It removes any hassles or restrictions, freeing you up to just print your documents on demand. Whether your employees need to print a document while outside of your office, away from their desk, or working from home, mobile printing will facilitate it.

As you would imagine, this agility and freedom will positively impact your staff. Being able to print from anywhere while on-the-go means increased productivity for your employees, who will never be without the documents they need to do their job. You’ll provide better customer service to clients, prospects, and vendors visiting your office by giving them the ability to print from their mobile devices. Mobile printing will also provide cost savings and reduce your environmental impact by allowing your staff to print only what they need, rather than printing out documents ahead of time that might prove to be unnecessary.

As we learned in 2020, agility is a good thing for businesses, and mobile printing is a simple, affordable way to facilitate it. If your Bay-area organization is ready to experience the freedom provided by mobile printing, contact Golden Gate Office Solutions today to get started.
