All About Managed Print Services

Many businesses are unaware of how much they actually spend on printing. The cost of your printing environment goes well beyond that of toner and maintenance and can really add up over time. In fact, expenses associated with an unmanaged print environment can accrue to over three percent of a company’s total annual revenue. At Southern Office Machines, we think that is an unacceptable, exorbitant percentage. That’s why we offer a way to streamline printing and cut costs with Managed Print Services (MPS). MPS is a practical, software-based initiative designed to help you regain control of your print environment and cut its associated costs. It provides businesses with a way to gain understanding of your print costs month-over-month and then reduce those fees.

A Managed Print Services solution provides you with printer usage data and monitoring of your entire print fleet to reduce wasteful printing habits. This solution even provides you with the opportunity to establish and enforce user rules—such as limiting the use of color printing to specific users or departments—to hold employees accountable and cut costs.

But these services extend well beyond savings. By partnering with Southern Office Machines, your new MPS program will increase your businesses security with on-time updates, ensure productivity is optimized by offering device placement recommendations, extend the life of your printers and copiers with regularly scheduled maintenance, automate meter readings, and even provide auto-replenishment services to guarantee that you always have toner when you need it. By switching to Managed Print Services, you will realize cost savings, a streamlined fleet, and peace of mind when it comes to your print environment. Contact us today to get started!
