Automate Your Meter Readings
What is a Meter?
Inside of every copier and printer, there’s a meter that is counting the number of pages that have been printed, copied or faxed from that piece of equipment. In the industry, we refer to this tally as a "meter reading" and we leverage that number to provide accurate billing and recommendations for your office technology that are best suited to your organization's unique needs and usage.
How to Submit Your Meter Reading
Just as every partnership with Advance is unique, we work with our customers in many ways in order to collect our meter readings in the most effective way for each individual business.

Meter Collection Portal
