In recent years office printing has evolved, with many businesses opting to replace a number of their individual desktop printers with an all in one multifunctional device. This has partially been made possible by the introduction of WiFi technology into these devices. In many offices, especially when they are open-plan, space can be precious so finding a position for a large photocopier can be difficult. Now that office machines, such as photocopiers and multifunctional devices, are often capable of storing documents electronically, emailing and faxing it has become vital in most businesses for them to be connected to the office network.Without being WiFi capable these machines would have to be placed next to a network connection, which are usually found in the busiest part of the office. WiFi enabled devices can utilise any spare office space and can be placed in the most central position so that they are convenient for all users, making it far easier for businesses to consolidate their office machines.

Employees who spend time out of the office and store documents on laptops can find particular benefit in having WiFi enabled printing devices. When returning to the office and needing to print out any documents, a connection can be made from the laptop to the printing device without needing to find a printer cable or to transfer the documents over to a computer which is connected to the device. This method of printing can be far more convenient and less time consuming, which is especially useful for people who are only in the office for a short while.

With most offices already having wireless networks connecting their computers, it can be easy to incorporate a WiFi enabled printer or photocopier into this network. It is now possible to consolidate desktop printers into an all in one device, which can be placed in the most convenient place, without having to spend any money on cables to connect the device to all the computers. With more and more printers and photocopiers incorporating WiFi technology it could mean that they could be positioned anywhere and used by anyone who needs them, whether it be in offices or in public spaces.
