Managed Print Services
Organizations strive to reduce expenses and increase efficiency, but one area that is often overlooked is their print environment. Many don't know their true cost of printing—it's not just the price of equipment but also supplies, maintenance and usage. Being in the dark could have costly ramifications.
Managed Print Services (MPS) providers offer customized programs for each customer to proactively manage and maintain all aspects of their print environment from equipment, supplies and service to ongoing consultative support. Your customers' best interests are kept at the forefront as your team continuously works to keep their costs low, increase equipment uptime and boost productivity. This allows customers to focus on core business projects, not printing related matters.
