What Pharos Customers Say “The result is a lower total cost of ownership and a single, common user interface across the entire campus.” “Every place we’ve installed Pharos Uniprint we’ve seen at least a 50% reduction in print waste. Before Uniprint we emptied the large recycling bins every day; now we do it every 2 weeks.” “We usually go through four cartons (40 reams) of paper a day in the main open lab. On the first day after implementation of Uniprint, we used only three reams of paper.” “In the first six months Creighton University has recovered 158% of last year’s print budget and reduced paper consumption by 78%.” “Pennsylvania State University has been using Uniprint since June of 1998 and it has worked flawlessly from the day it was installed!” “In just a few months, the change has been remarkable. We’ve seen a huge reduction in waste. With Uniprint, students only print what they really need, and they take whatever they print.” “We cut our waste on paper and ink by 75 percent.”
