Print and Fax Policy

Introduction

This document sets out the approved methods of using print, scan and faxing devices, and printing in general, both within ASPH NHS Foundation Trust and outside (e.g., when working remotely or at home) where such activity involves Trust business documents. The intention is to ensure cost-effectiveness, confidentiality, accountability, and efficiency.

For the purpose of the policy, production of printed materials will be through the following output equipment:

• Network printers
• Multi-functional devices (MFDs); a combination of print, copy, scan and potentially fax functionalities
• Personal printers, including those used when working from home, whether Trust-owned or otherwise
