What Is A Managed Print Service?
A managed print service is a program offered by print providers that manage all aspects of your business printing devices, streamlining printer management and minimizing costs associated with printing.
With our managed print services, in particular, you can track printing by user, printer device and department to help you understand and manage your printing costs.
This management encompasses your whole fleet from start to finish, from recommending and setting up your devices to updating software, training you and your staff to get the best out of your machines, monitoring usage, ongoing maintenance and much more.
Here are 5 ways using a managed print service could benefit your business.
Reduce Costs
Many businesses just don’t have the funds needed to splash out on a fleet of new hardware that can cost thousands of pounds. With a managed print service, you are essentially ‘renting’ the hardware, which is including in your monthly bill – no need to fork out on costly hardware.
Additionally, all of your ongoing printing costs are included in one monthly bill, so there’s no need to bulk buy printing supplies such as paper, toner, and ink.
Increase Sustainability
With a monitoring system in place as part of your Managed Print Service package, you’ll be able to identify and track levels of print usage.
By reducing the amount of paper, toner and electricity that your business uses, brings the added benefits of saving money and reducing emissions.
Minimise Downtime
Running out of toner, paper and ink are just the beginning of the many problems an office printer can bring, if not managed correctly. And every malfunction means more wasted time that could be used elsewhere more productively.
With a fully managed print service, all of the maintenance and repairs are taken care of, meaning you employees can focus on keeping your organisation running smoothly.
Peace Of Mind
An all-inclusive managed print service covers everything from paper and toner to servicing and repairs; providing a completely worry-free solution.
Free Up In-House Resources
Free up in-house resources
With a fully managed print service, your printer will automatically send a notification to your supplier, telling them that you require more supplies and instructing them to send out more before it runs out. This eliminates the need for staff members to keep track of stock and take time out of their roles to order more.
In addition to this, having a fully managed print service means that your printer will be regularly serviced by a fully trained Technician and call-outs for any problems are included in your monthly bill – so need to bother your IT guys with pesky print problems!
