What are Managed Print Services (MPS)?

Managed Print Services (MPS) is an approach to managing an organization's printing needs that involves outsourcing the management of printing devices, such as printers, copiers, and multifunction devices, to a third-party service provider. The goal of MPS is to optimize the printing infrastructure, reduce costs, and improve efficiency and productivity.

MPS providers typically offer a range of services, such as device monitoring and maintenance, supplies management, document management, and cost analysis and reporting. They may also provide software solutions to help manage and automate printing workflows, improve document security, and reduce environmental impact.

The MPS provider typically works closely with the client to understand their printing needs and goals, and develops a customized solution that meets those requirements while minimizing costs and improving performance. By outsourcing print management, organizations can focus on their core business activities, while the MPS provider takes care of managing the printing infrastructure.
