HP delivers secure and sustainable printing solutions for small businesses

HP Instant Ink for small business and the new LaserJet Pro with HP+, designed to simplify technology management for small business owners, were introduced at the HP Amplify Executive Forum, HP Inc’s annual partner roadshow. Small businesses can receive device-specific supplies (ink or toner) for multiple devices in multiple locations with a single Instant Ink account. An Instant Ink subscription, when combined with advanced features on the new LaserJet Pro with HP+, can help small businesses save time and money, make cartridge recycling simple, and protect and restore forests around the world.

“No one listens to the needs of small business and responds like HP. Entrepreneurs need printing to be effortless – from the set-up process to ordering supplies to monitoring security,” said Xavier Garcia, Global Head of Print Hardware Systems at HP. “HP Instant Ink for small business and the new LaserJet Pro with HP+, is an intuitive printing system requiring minimal management so that small business owners can dedicate their time and energy to growing their businesses.”  

Responding to the Needs of Small Businesses

Small business owners require new processes, ways of working, and technologies to boost productivity in order to navigate an increasingly challenging economy and position themselves for long-term growth. According to a survey of small business owners conducted by Morning Consult, more than 80% of small businesses rely on printing to run their operations. Nonetheless, 55% say they don’t have time to manage technology.

“Managing printers is not a very efficient use of time or energy,” said one small business owner surveyed. A second business decision maker polled stated, “Everything is becoming more and more automated.” Perhaps this could also be applied to printers. It would be ideal if the machines could order ink and toner on their own.”

According to survey respondents, they require a multi-functional printer that is simple to set up and manage, with automatic ink and toner cartridge reminders and the ability to pair seamlessly across multiple devices.
