OPTIMIZING AND IMPACT OF PRINTING ON THE ENVIRONMENT IN A SMALL ENTERPRISE

Namen te diplomske naloge je raziskati in pokazati kolikšni so lahko cenovni prihranki tiskanja, kako lahko privarčujemo pri papirju, ter kako s smotrnim tiskanjem obvarujemo okolje. Vsako podjetje ima npr. točno evidentirane avtomobile, nadzorujejo njihovo porabo in prevožene kilometre in v splošnem poskušajo stroške čim bolj optimizirati, vendar se velikokrat pozabi na »skrite« potrošnike, ki pa so vsem na očeh – tiskalniki oziroma multifunkcijske naprave. Ker imamo v Sloveniji zelo veliko samostojnih podjetnikov in malih podjetij je ta diplomska naloga usmerjena v raziskavo optimizacije tiskanja v malem podjetju, podjetju Promo.fil d.o.o. Stroški tiskanja imajo pogosto v strukturi celotnih stroškov podjetja nezanemarljiv delež, zato je smiselno tej problematiki posvetiti več pozornosti. V diplomski nalogi smo raziskali, kakšni so dejanski stroški tiskanja z laserskim tiskalnikom, ki je trenutno v uporabi v podjetju Promo.fil d.o.o., ter opravili analizo stroškov tiskanja na več različnih laserskih in brizgalnih večfunkcijskih napravah. Na podlagi opravljene analize smo izbrali najugodnejšo varianto. Pri tem smo poleg stroškovnih vidikov posvetili pozornost tudi vplivom na okolje. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and show how much money can we save with printing, how can we save on paper, and how can we protect the environment with smart and economical printing. Each company has for example accurately recorded cars, control their consumption and mileage, and generally trying to optimize costs as much as possible, but they often forget about the "hidden" consumers, who are all in the eye - printers and multifunction devices. Since Slovenia has a lot of entrepreneurs and small businesses, this thesis focused on the research to optimize printing in a small company, the company Promo.fil d.o.o. Printing costs are often of total company costs not negligible proportion, so it makes sense to this issue more attention. In this thesis, we studied what are the actual cost of printing with a laser printer, which is currently in use in the company Promo.fil d.o.o., and conducted an analysis of the costs of printing on a variety of laser and inkjet devices. Based on the analysis, we chose the best variant. In this context, in addition to cost considerations devote attention to the impact on the environment.
