As your organization grows, so does your print environment. More devices, more users, and more locations can make it difficult to keep printers running efficiently while controlling costs and minimizing downtime.
Managed Print Services (MPS) provides a proactive approach to managing your print environment, helping reduce the administrative burden of supplies, service, and device management while improving reliability and giving you greater visibility into your printing costs.
What Are Managed Print Services?
Managed Print Services is a comprehensive solution that helps you manage, maintain, and optimize your organization's fleet of printers and multifunction devices.
Instead of reacting to printer issues after they occur, MPS takes a proactive approach. Your devices are monitored remotely, supplies are automatically replenished, maintenance is scheduled before problems become disruptions, and your print environment is continually reviewed to identify opportunities for improvement.
What's Included with Managed Print Services?

Your printers are monitored continuously to identify potential issues before they impact your operations. This proactive approach helps improve device uptime and reduce unexpected service interruptions.

Replacement toner is automatically ordered and delivered based on actual device usage, helping ensure your employees always have the supplies they need without the hassle of manual ordering.
Ongoing Fleet Optimization
Your print environment changes as your organization evolves. We continually evaluate your fleet and recommend improvements that help increase efficiency, reduce waste, and support your business goals.

How Much Does Managed Print Services Cost?
The cost of Managed Print Services depends on your organization's print environment and the level of support you require. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, we tailor our recommendations to your devices, print volumes, workflows, and business goals.
Several factors can influence the cost of Managed Print Services, including:
- The number of printers and multifunction devices
- Your monthly print volumes
- Black-and-white versus colour printing
- The age and condition of your existing devices
- The number of office locations you operate
- Your service and maintenance requirements
A print assessment gives us a clear understanding of your current print environment so we can recommend the right Managed Print Services solution for your organization.

FAQs

Do I need to replace my existing printers?
Not necessarily. Many organizations can continue using some or all of their existing printers as part of a Managed Print Services agreement. During your print assessment, we'll evaluate your current fleet and recommend whether it makes sense to retain, replace, or optimize your existing devices.
How does automatic toner replenishment work?
Remote monitoring software tracks toner levels and printer usage in real time. When supplies reach predetermined levels, replacement toner is automatically ordered and delivered before your devices run out, reducing administrative effort and minimizing interruptions.
What happens if one of our printers requires service?
If a device requires service, our technicians diagnose and resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Many potential problems can also be identified through proactive monitoring before they result in unexpected downtime.
Can Managed Print Services support multiple office locations?
Yes. Managed Print Services can support organizations operating from multiple offices by providing centralized monitoring, automated supplies management, coordinated service, and consolidated reporting across your entire print fleet.

Managed Print Services helps reduce printing costs by improving visibility into print usage, automating supplies management, reducing downtime, optimizing device placement, minimizing unnecessary printing, and ensuring equipment is maintained for maximum efficiency.

Managed Print Services is often a good fit for organizations that manage multiple printers, experience recurring printer issues, spend significant time ordering supplies, have limited visibility into printing costs, or want to reduce the administrative burden of managing their print environment.
