Maria Thompson has worked for the Barbados branch of Productive Business Solutions since 2011 and is the corporate sales manager. Productive Business Solutions is the leading distributor for companies such as Cisco, Oracle, and Xerox. They provide a series of services and offer their partners and clients access to vital business solutions. Maria Thompson is responsible for providing excellent customer service to Productive Business Solution’s partners and helping these business find solutions to problems relating to efficiency and profitability.

One of Productive Business Solution’s main partners is Xerox. Maria Thompson worked with Xerox to find a new way to cut their overall operating cost and to make their products friendlier towards the environment. The solution came in the form of Solid Ink. This print solution allowed for Xerox to throw out the typical toner based ink supply, and take on a new type of ink. It comes is a solid stick and helps Xerox save 20 percent or more on their total operating costs. This new ink will help increase their profitability and will make printing services more efficient.

A typical cartridge based toner printer can generate up to 246 pounds of waste during a span of four years. According to their website, Xerox’s Solid Ink printer will only produce 19 pounds of waste. This solid stick ink printer will lessen Xerox’s environmental footprint. This ink boasts of a cartridge-free design and has minimal packaging. When the printer runs out of ink, there is nothing left to throw away. The only unit that needs to be replaced is the maintenance roller, which can last for tens of thousands of pages. The ink sticks themselves are resin based, and have no solvents which means that they are safe for the environment. This printing style is nearly waste free and allows companies to become environmentally friendly.

Maria Thompson, as a representative of Productive Business Solutions, Barbados, helps Xerox distribute these printers throughout the Island. She loves being able to help the environment by providing people with an environmentally safe printing option. She is dedicated to her career with both Productive Business Solutions and with Xerox and lessening each of their environmental impacts.
