When there are also different manufacturers and models, things can become quite complex. With such a &#8220;mixed device landscape,&#8221; information about the individual printers often has to be compiled from different sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And naturally, with more devices, the number of user reports also increases. Empty toner, paper problems or technical malfunctions. For IT, this often means a few extra steps every day to check the devices.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<!--blockstudio\/blockstudio\/faq--><div data-margin-after=\"default\" data-margin-before=\"default\" id=\"question-blockstudio-bdbd6a7d7e0a\" class=\"faq-question is-article is-open\" data-faq-index=\"2\">\n    <h3 class=\"question\"><span>Some tasks are still often carried out manually.<\/span><\/h3>\n    <div class=\"faq-answer\" id=\"answer-blockstudio-bdbd6a7d7e0a\">\n        <div class=\"answer\">\n            <div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A typical example: toner. An employee notices that the cartridge in the printer is almost empty. They report the low toner level to IT (or the responsible department). The required toner is then checked. New toner is ordered and the delivery is monitored. If the company has several printers, this process is repeated again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, some of these steps can be completely automated!<\/p>\n\n\n<!--blockstudio\/blockstudio\/frame-layout--><div data-margin-after=\"default\" data-margin-before=\"small\" id=\"fl-blockstudio-88f483d787aa\" class=\"fl px-frame-layout\" data-frame=\"cibgbox\" data-layout=\"default\" data-padding-before=\"small\" data-padding-after=\"small\" data-padding-horizontal=\"small\">\n        <div class=\"inner\">\n        <div>\n<!--blockstudio\/blockstudio\/textimages--><div data-margin-after=\"default\" data-margin-before=\"default\" id=\"px-textimages-blockstudio-4b8fb8dddbe2\" class=\"px-textimages imageposition-left\">\n\t<div class=\"px-textimages-inner\">\n                <div class=\"col media image\" data-animation=\"fadeInLeft\" data-delay=\"700\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/topcart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/pic_ansprechpartner_philippmayer.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topcart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/pic_ansprechpartner_philippmayer.png 240w, https:\/\/topcart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/pic_ansprechpartner_philippmayer-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\">        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"col text\" data-animation=\"fadeIn\" data-delay=\"300\">\n            <div class=\"content\">\n\n<p class=\"is-style-uppercase wp-block-paragraph\">Personal analysis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly does your current situation look like?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Philipp Mayer will take a close look at your printer fleet and review your current situation with you&mdash;free of charge and without obligation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/topcart.com\/en\/contact\/\">Get in touch now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<!--blockstudio\/blockstudio\/faq--><div data-margin-after=\"default\" data-margin-before=\"default\" id=\"question-blockstudio-77ffa1f188b2\" class=\"faq-question is-article is-open\" data-faq-index=\"3\">\n    <h3 class=\"question\"><span>What a modern printer manager can take care of.<\/span><\/h3>\n    <div class=\"faq-answer\" id=\"answer-blockstudio-77ffa1f188b2\">\n        <div class=\"answer\">\n            <div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Centralized software for the entire printer fleet can automatically record and monitor the most important device data.
