Printing as a service

IT-HAUS Managed Print Services

Saving by outsourcing

More efficient printer fleet and relief for your IT

Printing is a significant cost factor, especially for medium-sized companies. According to studies, a company today spends up to three percent of its turnover on printing.

The acquisition costs for the printing systems only make up a fraction of the total costs. Operating costs and expenses for technical support are significantly higher.

A survey of the existing environment usually reveals the following typical problems:

Heterogeneous printer landscapes with many, sometimes outdated models from different manufacturers
High energy consumption
Different drivers
Missing spare parts
No manufacturer-independent software
Downtime and standstill times
Lack of transparency in consumption data and costs
Difficult configuration and administration of individual devices
Lack of security concepts

The implementation of Managed Print Services (MPS) is therefore an important step, particularly for companies with numerous branches: By centrally managing all printing and scanning processes, optimizing the device fleet and outsourcing operational responsibility to IT-HAUS , savings of up to a third can be achieved.

What does Managed Print Services mean?

Managed Print Services (MPS), also known as Printing as a Service, refers to comprehensive services relating to the optimization and/or management of a company's document output, which are provided by an external provider. This includes the provision of printing systems and their maintenance, the supply of consumables and various administrative services such as monitoring, automatic toner delivery and disposal at the end of the life cycle.

The operation of the devices is usually billed based on consumption via a so-called click contract - i.e. in the form of a fixed page price, which ensures transparent and manageable printing costs. A monthly rental fee is then added, which usually includes all service costs such as consumables, spare and wear parts, technician costs and the provision of fleet management software in addition to the use of hardware.

Who are Managed Print Services suitable for?

In principle, Managed Print Services are suitable for companies of all kinds.

MPS concepts with global standardization give international corporations and chain stores a better overview of their printer fleet and full transparency of costs and consumption. Start-ups and SMEs with limited staff or IT budgets also benefit from Printing as a Service.

MPS can also be of interest to financial institutions or companies in the healthcare sector, for example to enable branch scanning or simplify printing from hospital information systems.

The most important advantages of Managed Print Services at a glance:

Managed Print Services guarantee the fail-safe use of your printer fleet. The complete package of high-performance systems, up-to-date software solutions and corresponding services reduces your operating costs and relieves your in-house IT team, who no longer need to worry about administration and support. In addition, there is no longer any need to store and order consumables, which is now done automatically.

Consolidation and optimization of systems as well as central management and monitoring of document output prevents printer problems and ensures greater cost transparency.

Manageable operating expenses

Managed Print Services can usually be used to optimize not only your device fleet, but also your print volume, enabling you to achieve considerable cost savings. High investment sums for new devices are eliminated, and repair and maintenance costs are also significantly reduced thanks to optimum service and permanent monitoring. In addition, accounting is simplified thanks to consumption-based billing. .

More satisfied employees

Managed Print Services improve all output processes in the company. Smoothly functioning printers and multifunctional devices (MFPs) also ensure happier employees and optimized workflows.

Less effort

By outsourcing the administration and management of your printer fleet to an external service provider, you relieve your IT department and conserve your own resources - in favor of more important tasks.

Secure printing environment

Thanks to permanent monitoring of your fleet and all document processes, attacks on data security and potential threats can be detected immediately, minimized or even prevented altogether. User authorization and follow-me printing further increase the security of your data, documents and devices.

A lack of security when printing can be dangerous

Countless documents containing personal and confidential data are printed, copied and scanned in companies every day. Without reliable security measures, these can easily fall into unauthorized hands.

Anyone who forgoes security functions in the printing sector is taking a high risk. This is because modern printing systems offer a large attack surface if left unprotected.

We show you how to identify, prevent and eliminate security vulnerabilities.
