As part of a new initiative that employs the latest digital technologies to support a more sustainable printing practice

 

Kuwait, 08 September 2021: As part of its ongoing efforts to support sustainability, Gulf Bank is spearheading a new initiative to more effectively address internal printing requirements, consolidating printers to support the existing print volume and current business needs. Gulf Bank’s Information Technology (IT) Department is leading this initiative, consolidating and replacing the Bank’s printers with the latest multifunction printers available in the market.

 

Gulf Bank launched this initiative with the aim of using the latest technology to instigate positive change in the Bank’s work culture and enhance Gulf Bank’s customer service by increasing printer mobility, allowing staff to print necessary documents from any location. The latest initiative also aims to reduce wasteful printing by encouraging users to shift to digital practices whenever possible.

 

The new initiative also enables Gulf Bank employees to complete printing operations on any printer by using only their staff IDs. In addition, Gulf Bank employees can now print from their mobile phones directly from email, and are encouraged to switch to electronic documentation.

 

On this initiative, Deputy General Manager- Information Technology at Gulf Bank, Osamah AlAbdullah, said: “The initiative to replace and consolidate office printers falls within Gulf Bank’s integrated strategic plan, and paves the way for a complete digital transformation. Through this initiative, all office printers will be replaced and consolidated into a more effective amount of multifunction printers, which will not only increase work efficiency and speed, but also encourage digital transformation at the employee level. The printer consolidation initiative is one of many currently underway at Gulf Bank’s IT Department, and we are looking forward to announcing new and exciting developments very soon."
