MyQ umožní sdílet tiskárny jako koloběžky

First, the printers were moved from the desks to the hallway

Do you remember the time when everyone had a typewriter on their desk and later a personal printer ? You may still have one on your desk at home, but in offices you can now find it more often in the hallways . Exactly fifteen years ago, MyQ launched a printing solution that helped companies reduce the number of small personal printers and replace them with more powerful and economical multifunction printers that could be conveniently shared by many colleagues.

MyQ's main task was to prevent unauthorized persons from misusing a shared device or its printouts. The user was first required to log in , which he could do by presenting his authorization card, personal code, or mobile phone. 

Mandatory login brought two other important features. The user could log in on any device and print, copy or scan their documents. This was especially useful if a printer broke down, ran out of toner or was occupied by someone else. In return, the administrator received detailed reports that explained who printed what and where, which allowed him to better manage and optimize the print fleet.

Then they got smarter

While the printers in the hallways saved a lot of printing costs , users complained that they couldn't pre-set anything on them because they no longer belonged to them. So MyQ added a personalized control panel feature that, after logging in, adapted to its user and offered them only the functions or scanning scenarios they needed for their work .

And now it's time to kick them out of the house

The pandemic has shown us all that even the most perfect office is useless if we can't get into it . So we started digitizing faster and moved our documents to cloud storage , which we can access at any time and from anywhere in the world . In addition, we need to print fewer and fewer documents, and when that happens, we're not sitting in our office. This brings with it one very unpleasant fact. As soon as a printer starts printing significantly less than expected when it was purchased, its operation and maintenance per printed page start to become very expensive . At a certain point, its ownership becomes unprofitable. Moreover, the less you print, the harder it is to negotiate regular maintenance terms, and so sooner or later you will find yourself in a situation where your only printer breaks down.

MyQ reacted to all these new events with lightning speed and introduced a brand new MyQ Roger solution , with which it intends to destroy the myths and change the world of printing, scanning and document work .
