Kids used to make bracelets and necklaces out of them. Maybe Lady Gaga could make a dress out of one. I’ve used them for resetting iPods and as a key chain.

That little factoid is something that Xerox shared with us, and they reference All Associates Group as the source. I've also seen it from IDC. visualize an iceberg - 90 percent of your print costs are hidden below the surface. In general, for every dollar spent on hard costs like new hardware, toner and maintenance, there are nine dollars of hidden costs. The hidden costs vary, but are usually found in productivity loss, network administration, infrastructure, procurement and help desk support. Also consider supply storage and ordering mistakes. Supply disposal and device retirement can also be time consuming. From what we have seen, the more focused a company is on reducing those hard costs, the more the hidden costs add up.

I saw you quoted in Becks Hospital Review and am curious. What did you mean by "for every dollar a hospital spends on printing, it takes another $9 to maintain it". Is that around storage of paper information, or some other metric. It's a powerful statistic! Pam – Congrats on the blog and for adding your perspectives on the industry to the blogosphere!!
