Managed Print Services - Core Aspects

Core Aspects

Important aspects of MPS are management, billing, maintenance and optimization of the process throughout the contract life.

There are a wide variety of other services and software applications that can be added to this core.

MPS are facilitated by key software applications that fall into one of four categories:

  1. Print Management software to manage the volume and nature of print and authenticate users
  2. Device Management software to monitor and manage the print devices in an environment
  3. Discovery and Design Software to analyze and plan for the change required in implementing a MPS
  4. Scan Routing software to route scans to various destinations including fax servers, network folders, email or workflows

The MPS Providers vary in size, abilities, and hardware/software supported.
