–Toshiba America Business Solutions is simplifying the often tedious asset tag process by introducing its mobile and QR-enabled Encompass Tag & Assessment Generator™ (eTAG™). Ushering print fleets online is now a breeze when using eTAG, the industry’s first and currently only mobile, remote, self-service, printer registration technology.
@ToshibaBusiness introduces the first, most convenient & affordable way to remotely register printers. Toshiba’s patented eTAG innovation manages this process while simplifying supply & service requests. #TeamToshibaShare
Toshiba’s patented innovation works by intelligently cataloging every printer’s make, model and location in an organization’s fleet while facilitating remote and QR-generated supply and service requests. eTAG further provides professionals with a clear and comprehensive look at their organization’s printer landscape that’s viewable via their mobile devices.
“With more than 100 printers across our locations, the logistics to identify each one would have been daunting for our IT department,” says ERIK’S Bike Board & Ski Vice President Digital & Information Technology Graeme Bloor.
“Instead, we leveraged Toshiba’s eTAG solution to identify each printer remotely. Toshiba’s solution provides simple instructions for our store staff to tag 100 percent of our printers quickly and efficiently. Beyond finding value in the accuracy of the process, the work, time, and cost savings are far greater than we expected. I would highly recommend Toshiba’s eTAG for any organization!”
ERIK’S Bike Board & Ski employs more than 450 people with 35 locations across seven states in the Midwest. The company’s selection of products and services includes bicycles, snowboards, downhill skis, skateboards, pro scooters and all the gear that goes with them. Erik Saltvold’s original workshop was in the barn in his parents’ backyard. A homemade sign brought business to his doorstep.
Self-Service Support
eTAG delivers asset tag labels directly to printers to quickly manage organizations’ fleets online without the need for costly and time-consuming onsite visits.
Toshiba’s latest innovation’s simplicity is its strength, as eTAG asset tag labels contain a QR code with instructions for enrolling each device. This means personnel may register print devices themselves at their convenience. Upon scanning eTAG’s QR code, staff may also order supplies or schedule service when needed.
Real-Time Asset Management
eTAG additionally helps ensure real-time, round-the-clock operations by delivering up-to-the-minute supply and service updates. Providing such a centralized view better enables organizations’ IT teams to track and manage their print fleets while ensuring maintenance and servicing are always up to date.
“Toshiba’s eTAG technology is already helping many of our clients, including Graeme at ERIK’S Bike Board & Ski, save time and money when registering, managing, as well as servicing their print fleet,” states Toshiba America Business Solutions Vice President of Managed Print Services Scott Robinson.
“As the first and currently only manufacturer of remote asset management technology, we’re looking forward to helping businesses facilitate this process.”
