Like many endpoints, printers have the same vulnerabilities and offer access into company financials and private data, and are often unsecured – so why aren’t IT personnel taking notice of the threat?

In the past year, 40% of Canadian organizations had experienced an IT security breach, and 56% of those breaches were print related.

With the majority of security breaches happening as a result of printers, it’s clear that printer security is an afterthought for organizations.

Pull printing technology has become a must have solution for enterprises seeking an additional layer of security to protect their print infrastructure.

In today’s complex technological landscape, other factors like the cloud and print security are disrupting the market, and resulting a new emergence of pull printing solutions.

With the surge of solutions now available and offered by so many vendors, it becomes hard to navigate and overwhelming to select the best solution.

Today, many companies have moved their IT operations into the Cloud. In fact, Gartner predicts that by 2020, non-cloud based companies will be as irrelevant as non-internet companies are today.

The reasons why the upward trend of companies moving towards the cloud has never been clearer. Cloud computing offers unique reduced IT expenses and improved efficiencies. This shift has changed many legacy IT environments and business systems.

We all know that the cloud and virtualized desktop infrastructures improve workflow, reduces costs and frees up IT resources, but what about printers and printing paper?

Today’s college and university students are a mobile generation. Did you know almost 81% of undergraduate students are using smartphones and tablets for studying and completing work while on campus.

Students are constantly on the go and you won’t find any student without a mobile device.

This shift to a “mobile” generation has changed what students are expecting when they arrive on campus. With mobile devices they can access whatever they want, wherever they are, whenever they need.

That being said, there are certain necessities on campus, like campus printing, that need to be deployed, in order to compliment the mobile generation.
