Do Managed Print Services Save Money?

September 23, 2015 by Derek Rippe

We’ve all been there.  The office copier has inexplicably decided it’s no longer up to the task of completing a major job that is only half complete.  With a delivery deadline hours away, frustrated IT experts struggle vainly in a futile attempt to resolve the issue.  Time wasted, money wasted, a deadline missed. What’s the best way to avoid this scenario? Many successful businesses rely on managed print services.

How Does Print Management Help?

Technologies have advanced and business needs keep changing. Because of this constant change, many companies operate with a printing environment that is a patchwork of printing and imaging devices that don’t “talk” to each other, and aren’t utilized, managed or serviced adequately. State-of-the-art machines are much more energy efficient, use less toner, can be integrated with existing equipment to make everything (and everybody) more productive.

Just outsourcing print management can save a business a significant amount of money. In fact, on average, companies save 30% of total hardcopy cost and free up 10% of their IT staff who were previously devoted to supporting printers by implementing a managed print services strategy.

How Does Print Management Work?

A reliable and expert managed print services vendor will first take a look at your print environment and then optimize its configuration and integration with all associated programs and devices. This helps reduce waste, downtime and headaches.

The vendor should also be able to remotely manage your printers and associated devices and networks. Remote management means that problems can be identified and fixed before anyone in your office even knows there is a problem.

With this level of integrated monitoring, office efficiency is increased tremendously.  No longer does your IT group have to monitor printers, faxes, copiers and scanners.  Gone is the need to track down various, separate vendors to fix problems and order supplies.  Your business can now enjoy the simplicity of having one source for all of your document generation needs.
