on-site support for the whole campus. The campus has
also cut the number of devices in half and reduced
energy usage, while improving customer service.
“Our managed print agreement has helped us in many
ways,” says Smith. “We’re spending far less time
managing leases, yet campus-wide, printing is better
managed than ever. And we finally feel we’re
efficiently delivering what our users need, rather than
what someone wanted to sell us.”
Consolidation, standardization realize rewards
Anderson University is a private, Christian university 
of 2,700 undergraduate and graduate students.
Established in 1917 by the Church of God, Anderson
University offers more than 60 undergraduate majors
and graduate programs in business, education, music,
nursing and theology.
Cannon IV, based in Indianapolis, had been one of
the university’s print vendors for many years, providing
maintenance and toner cartridges. The company
designs and delivers Total Print Management solutions
intended to streamline printing, reduce overhead,
enhance document and data security, and improve
document quality.
When Cannon IV’s representative to the college, John
Fazio, learned that Smith was unhappy with the
various disjointed leases she had to manage, a move
to a managed print solution with a single, predictable
monthly cost was proposed. 
“I analyzed the numbers and it looked like we would
save 40 hours a month of my assistant’s time—it’s a
big job tracking all the different machines on different
leases from different vendors,” recalls Smith. With
some of the existing leases coming to an end, it
seemed like the right time for consolidation to a single
vendor and a single agreement. It’s a strategy Smith
relies on across all technologies. “We value
consistency and standardization,” she says. “I have 
a small IT staff, and when we buy a single model or
PC or printer for use throughout the university, it’s 
much easier to manage and troubleshoot.”
“Some people were very reluctant to give up a desktop
printer, but it’s not that much trouble to walk a few
steps to the office printer, and the new LaserJet MFPs
produce better quality at a lower cost than most 
of our older printers.”
Cynthia Smith, director of Information Technology
Services, Anderson University
Cannon IV and Smith talked with department
representatives across campus about their needs and
printing history, then developed a list of devices suited
to each department. In many areas, a copier and printer
(or multiple printers) were replaced by a single HP
Multifunction Printer (MFP). Overall, the device count
was cut by nearly half, from 150 devices to just 85 today.
MFPs serve workgroups, deliver new capability
The workhorse at Anderson University is the HP
LaserJet 4345-series MFP. “It’s a very nicely sized
workgroup device with multifunction capabilities, and
suits the majority of our offices,” Smith notes. At
Anderson, it serves workgroups ranging from five to 
25 people. “Some people were very reluctant to give
up a desktop printer, but it’s not that much trouble to
walk a few steps to the office printer, and the new
LaserJet MFPs produce better quality at a lower cost
than most of our older printers.”
Other HP MFPs deployed as part of the agreement at
Anderson include the LaserJet M9050 MFP for areas
requiring inline document finishing, the LaserJet
M5035 MFP for users requiring 11 x 17 capabilities,
and the HP Color LaserJet 4730-series MFP for areas
requiring color.
