Most offices have their printing setup around a central network printer. This is one printer that handles the job of all the office workers in that area. The main reason this is done is to cut down on the cost and space requirements that would be associated with giving each worker their own printer - something that would cost the company a lot of money on yearly consumables and play a large negative impact on their environmental footprint. In large offices, these network printers will often be heard churning out prints from nine to five - with no time to rest and certainly no appointed "half hour break-time".
