      MPS: How Managed Print Services Can Transform Your Business

      MPS: How Managed Print Services Can Transform Your Business

      In a world where efficiency and resource optimization are key to the business growth, managed print services(MPS) have become a strategic solution for companies of all sizes. But what exactly is MPS? It is a comprehensive model that enables organizations to control, manage, and optimize their print environments through customized, technology-enabled print solutions.

      Why Implement Managed Print Services (MPS)?

      MPS is a set of professional print services that centrally analyze, monitor, and manage print devices - such as printers, copiers, scanners and faxes. Its implementation enables companies to reduce operating costs, minimize paper and ink waste, improve the security of printed information, and increase equipment productivity.

      One of the main benefits of managed print services is that they free IT departments from repetitive and technical print-related tasks. This allows them to focus on more strategic activities, while a specialized provider takes care of optimizing print management.

      Advantages of Managed Print Services (MPS) for your Business

      The advantages of Managed Print Services (MPS) are numerous. Here we highlight some of the most relevant ones:

      1. Cost reduction: With an accurate diagnosis of the print environment, MPS identifies inefficient equipment, unnecessary processes and consolidation opportunities. This can translate into savings of up to 30% in total printing expenses.
      2. Increased document security: MPS implements security protocols to protect confidential information, such as secure printing through user authentication and document tracking.
      3. Sustainability: By reducing paper and energy consumption, managed print services help companies meet their sustainability and social responsibility goals.
      4. Constant monitoring: The system enables proactive monitoring of equipment, which avoids interruptions by anticipating maintenance and replenishment of supplies.
      5. Scalability: MPS adapts to the growth of your company, ensuring that the printing environment evolves with your needs.

      Ricoh: Leadership in Managed Print Services (MPS)

      Ricoh is one of the global leaders in the implementation of managed print services (MPS). Its managed print services include not only the evaluation and optimization of existing devices, but also the integration of digital print solutions that improve collaboration, automate processes and enhance hybrid work.

      Through intelligent tools such as centralized dashboards, advanced analytics and remote support, Ricoh enables businesses to have full visibility into the print environment, make data-driven decisions and continuously improve operational efficiency.

      Conclusion

      Implementing managed print services (MPS) in your company is a strategic decision that can make a difference in terms of savings, security, sustainability and productivity. Now that you know what MPS is and the advantages of managed print services, it's time to consider a partner like Ricoh to take your print infrastructure to the next level.
