Canon Managed Print Services Help You Take Full Control Over Your Office Printing Fleet
We’ve helped many organizations optimize their print programs with our Managed Print Services (MPS) methodology to achieve maximum savings, efficiency and productivity.
- Assess your current printing fleet, including devices, costs, and current and future requirements.
- Design an optimized print strategy—including initiatives to reduce output and cost—along with a tactical roadmap to implement that strategy.
- Migrate to the new strategy. Any or all aspects of the migration can be staffed, executed and managed by Canon professionals.
- Monitor and measure results to drive continuous improvement.
The Canon integrated approach to MPS includes a comprehensive bundle of services, consulting and advanced tools, any or all of which can be integrated into your print program. The Canon scope of services includes fleet monitoring, client reporting, help desk services, total equipment maintenance, configuration and change management, consumable and supply management, continuous assessment, and financial and asset management.
Leverage a Managed Print Strategy To Reduce the Cost of Office Print
Managed print services (MPS) tend to focus on managing only the hardware and maintenance. Today, organizations are looking for a guide to exploit MFD digital workflow capabilities for the paper-to-digital transition, to harden security at the print device, and to enable mobile print. Canon provides managed document services that go beyond managing the hardware fleet. We help clients reduce costs, improve sustainability, increase employee productivity, reduce the IT workload, enable mobility and implement scan-to-digital workflows.
A Document Needs Assessment Identifies Cost-Saving Opportunities
How much does print and copy cost for the average office worker at your organization? If you don’t know, the answer might be higher than you think. In order to find out, and to ensure that the costs align with your business needs, a comprehensive review of your print-copy processes and MFD fleet is necessary.
The Canon Document Needs Assessment is a service that reviews print-copy processes, business and user needs, hardware and the total costs of ownership. The goals are to identify areas for improvement and cost reduction. The assessment starts with a quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis. We document the current state equipment population, output volume, device utilization, total costs, user needs and challenges. Then we design an office document output strategy, several total cost of ownership scenarios and a roadmap for implementation.
Taking into account client goals, Canon recommendations are presented in a detailed report clearly showing the planned changes, estimated cost saving over time and the expected business improvements.
