Cost Accounting Solutions

Understanding your organisation’s print and copy requirements and associated costs is key in today’s economic environment. Sharp provides and recommends a variety of cost effective solutions which help you monitor, measure and manage your print and copy output as well as reduce waste and conserve resources.

 The External Accounting Module makes it easy to keep a precise record of individual usage. Any business, such as a firm of lawyers, for example, that is in the practice of billing clients for the copying, printing, scanning or faxing documents could use the information it records to prepare accurate invoices.

 Sharp OSA gives your business the ability to capture all MFP job attributes to simplify and automate the charging of variable rates such as paper size and use of colour or black and white – for both copies and prints.  This can be detected on a page-by-page basis for accurate usage reporting and allocation to correct account codes for individuals, departments or other funding sources.

 Sharp’s Open Systems Architecture (OSA) running on MFPs widely deployed in the education and general office environments, provides you access to award-winning print management and cost-control solutions with no terminals to purchase, install or maintain.
