The efficiency of having three devices in one is the top-mentioned advantage of connected copiers or multifunction devices (MFDs), according to Office- Based MFDs: Going Beyond the Green Button, a research report published by Blackstone Research Associates. Also among the top five advantages:
The ability to print long documents directly instead of printing a master document on a personal printer and making copies;
Reducing the inventory of office equipment;
Saving space as a result of having a smaller equipment inventory;
Lower per-page printing costs compared to personal printers.
