Printers and photocopiers are vital business assets. Managed print contracts make sure they are working at their best.
A managed print contract supplies software, consumables, servicing and emergency call out engineers for a regular monthly fee. Leasing a device and combining it with managed print tends to be more cost-effective than outright purchase of a printer/photocopier, given that the software and technology will be updated regularly, and considering everything else that’s included:
- The device – Print hardware (printer or photocopier) that meets the needs of your business, from trusted market-leading brands. Assuming you renew your contract at the end of the term, the print technology in your business will be upgraded at the start of each term.
- Software – Managed print provides software to suit your workload. Multiple users each printing confidential data? Staff working remotely? Want to monitor print spend? There are solutions for these issues, and more.
- Consumables – No more spare ink/toner or parts sitting on your shelves, costing money without being useful. Managed print contracts cover everything: fresh ink/toner delivered automatically, parts replaced during servicing, and parts needed during emergency call outs.
- Servicing and support – Keep your device running smoothly with regular check-ups and account management. Managed print provides support phone lines to help and advise, to book engineers or to help with anything else that comes up.
- Emergency engineers – Sometimes, the worst does happen and your printer may go offline. With a managed print contract the situation is much less stressful. Once reported, an engineer will be on their way to repair your printer/photocopier ASAP.
The often-used industry phrase “Everything but the paper” describes managed print, and it’s about right. Under a managed print contract you will have the technology your business needs alongside the necessary support and aftercare to make it the right choice for most organisations.
