The new website for Whistle Ink, which will stock the full range of office supplies as well as the ink cartridges and toners that current Whistle Ink business customers are used to seeing, is nearly finished.Below is a sneak peek at what you can look forward to when buying stationery for your office. Shop for envelopes, copier paper and post-it notes in luxury and style!

There are going to be many more features which you will find in the customer account section. Ideal for small businesses as well as medium to large, you can view invoices and print them, manage favourites and lists, store separate invoice and delivery addresses, making checkout (which will only be on one page!) that much quicker.

Suppliers increase the price of paper!

December 9, 2007 at 1:39 pm (Uncategorized) (, , , , )

We have heard from our supplier that they are increasing the price of paper. Mills are working to full capacity to produce the office laser copier paper we print on. Here are just a few ideas on how cut down on printing and copying.

1) Can you switch your fax number to receive all faxes via email as an attachment? Service like these exist already, and we at Whistle Ink already are using this. We have a land-line number that we can fax with also, but a separate fax local fax number that, when a fax is sent to it, the fax data is converted to a Picture file attachment! Thankfully we don’t get adverts through offering personalised overalls or cheap business car rental!

2) Printing double sided can save alot of paper, and does not really detract from a professional looking document. Most printers and copier today offer duplex as standard, or you can do it manually. Take advantage of this.

For meetings and presentations, giving hand outs, can mean that while essential, this information becomes redundant after the meeting. Printing double sided paper will reduce the amount that needs to be recycled.

3) Do you need to print at all?

Can the information displayed or distributed or stored in another format? PDF attachment, power point presentation, CD / DVD?

Do you have any good habits to share? What are your thoughts on how to cut down paper use? Let us know!
