  RC McLean & Associates, Inc. (RCM) is a 55-person practice-management firm that provides billing and other professional services to more than 300 anesthesiologists and other medical specialists throughout the United States. For a company with just 55 employees, an inventory revealed that RCM had 40 printers. Nearly each employee with a computer had a personal, locally attached inkjet printer at or under their desk.
