What are Managed Print Services?
Managed Print Services, often shortened to MPS, are a managed approach to office printing, copying and scanning. Instead of leaving each printer, photocopier, toner order, service call and print issue to be handled separately, a managed print provider reviews the whole print environment and recommends a more controlled way to manage it.
A good MPS setup can include printer fleet management, print usage reporting, proactive support, toner supply, secure printing, user controls, print rules, remote monitoring and ongoing optimisation. For many London businesses, MPS is less about simply buying or leasing printers and more about reducing waste, avoiding downtime and giving finance, IT and operations teams better visibility.
Managed Print Services London: what is included?
London Printer Rentals can act as your MPS provider in London by bringing devices, users, toner, service support and reporting into one more manageable print strategy. Every organisation is different, so the exact managed print solution depends on your current devices, print volumes, users, locations, support needs and contract preferences.
| Managed print service | How it helps your organisation | Relevant internal service |
|---|---|---|
| Print audit and assessment | Reviews your current printers, photocopiers, user habits, print volumes, running costs, workflow issues and opportunities to reduce waste. | Print Audit London |
| Printer fleet management | Helps identify whether you have too many devices, the wrong devices, poor placement, underused equipment or unnecessary running costs. | Printer Fleet Management |
| Secure printing | Helps reduce the risk of confidential documents being left on printer trays by using user authentication, print release and better print controls. | Secure Printing for London Offices |
| PaperCut print management | Supports print tracking, print rules, secure print release, user reporting, quotas, charging rules and department-level print visibility. | PaperCut Print Management |
| Remote device monitoring | Tracks device status, meter readings, alerts and toner levels so support and consumables can be managed more proactively. | Remote management applications |
| Toner and consumables supply | Reduces manual toner ordering, helps avoid supply shortages and supports more predictable print administration. | Order printer toner |
| Maintenance and repairs | Gives your team one point of contact for printer and photocopier support, helping reduce downtime and internal admin. | Printer and photocopier repairs |
| Usage reporting | Helps you understand print behaviour by user, department, device or location so decisions are based on real print data. | Managed Print Services |
Why London businesses use Managed Print Services
Office printing often becomes inefficient gradually. Different teams buy different devices, toner is ordered manually, small desktop printers multiply, old photocopiers remain in use for too long, and IT teams lose time dealing with printer issues. Managed Print Services bring these moving parts under control.
Reduce print costs
Identify avoidable colour printing, unnecessary desktop printers, inefficient devices, duplicate supplies and support arrangements that may be costing more than they should.
Improve printer uptime
Use better device placement, proactive support, remote monitoring and planned maintenance to help reduce disruption across your office.
Increase print visibility
Understand who prints, what they print, which devices are used most and where waste or workflow problems may exist.
Improve document security
Use secure print release, user authentication and print rules to reduce the risk of sensitive documents being printed and left unattended.
Managed Print Service cost: what affects the price?
Managed print service cost depends on your current setup, device mix, print volumes, support requirements, software requirements and whether you need new equipment, existing fleet support or a blended approach. A print audit is the best starting point because it shows where your current costs sit and where savings may be possible.
London Printer Rentals can review your current printer fleet and recommend a practical managed print solution based on your organisation, not a one-size-fits-all package. Depending on your requirements, your MPS plan may include printer rental, photocopier leasing, maintenance, toner, remote monitoring, PaperCut software and usage reporting.
| Cost factor | Why it matters | What to review |
|---|---|---|
| Number of devices | More printers and photocopiers can mean more toner, maintenance, service calls and administration. | Device count, location, age, usage and whether some devices can be consolidated. |
| Print volume | Mono, colour, A3 and A4 usage all affect running costs and device suitability. | Monthly volumes, peak usage, department usage and unnecessary colour printing. |
| Device type | A3 multifunction devices, high-speed colour photocopiers and desktop printers have different operating costs. | Whether each team has the right printer or photocopier for its real workload. |
| Support requirement | Response expectations, maintenance needs and downtime impact affect the best service model. | Current service issues, downtime patterns and support expectations. |
| Software and security | PaperCut, secure print release, reporting and user rules can improve control but need correct setup. | Security needs, user groups, department reporting and print governance. |
| Toner and consumables | Manual toner ordering can create shortages, waste and unnecessary admin. | How toner is currently ordered, stored, tracked and charged. |
The biggest savings often come from reducing unnecessary print, replacing inefficient devices, improving device placement, automating toner supply, simplifying support and using print rules to reduce waste.
Print audit and MPS assessment process
A managed print strategy should start with evidence. Our print audit process helps establish how your organisation currently prints, copies and scans, where costs are created and which changes would make the biggest difference.
1. Discover
We discuss your current printer fleet, users, locations, print issues, contract position and business priorities.
2. Audit
We review device usage, print volumes, toner processes, service issues, security requirements and workflow problems.
3. Recommend
We recommend the right mix of devices, support, monitoring, software, print rules and managed print services.
4. Implement
We help supply, install, configure or transition the agreed print setup with the right support plan in place.
5. Monitor
Where remote monitoring is used, device status, alerts, meter readings and consumables can be tracked more proactively.
6. Improve
Usage data and support patterns can be reviewed over time so your print environment continues to fit the way your organisation works.

How an MPS rollout usually works
Managed Print Services should be planned around your users and workflows. A typical rollout starts with a review of your current environment, then moves through recommendation, setup, monitoring and ongoing improvement.
| Stage | What happens | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Initial review | We discuss your current devices, print issues, volumes, locations, software needs and contract position. | A clearer understanding of your current print environment. |
| Print audit | We assess print behaviour, device usage, consumables, support issues and areas of waste or risk. | Evidence-based recommendations rather than guesswork. |
| Managed print proposal | We recommend the right mix of devices, software, monitoring, toner supply, maintenance and support. | A practical MPS plan matched to your organisation. |
| Installation and setup | Devices, software, monitoring, user rules and support arrangements are installed or configured where required. | A more controlled print environment for your team. |
| Ongoing management | Usage, support requirements and print behaviour can be reviewed so improvements continue over time. | Better visibility, fewer surprises and a print setup that can adapt as your organisation changes. |
Managed Print Services vs printer leasing
Printer leasing and Managed Print Services are related, but they are not the same. Leasing usually focuses on the supply and finance of equipment. Managed Print Services focus on the wider print environment: devices, users, toner, support, reporting, security and continuous improvement.
| Option | Main focus | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| Printer and photocopier leasing | Supplying office printers or photocopiers over a fixed-term leasing arrangement. | Businesses that need reliable equipment for regular office use over a longer period. |
| Printer and photocopier rental | Flexible access to devices for short-term, monthly, project or temporary requirements. | Events, temporary offices, construction sites, pop-up teams and project-based setups. |
| Managed Print Services | Managing the wider print environment, including devices, users, toner, maintenance, reporting, security and optimisation. | Organisations that need better visibility, lower admin burden, improved control and ongoing print support. |
| PaperCut Print Management | Software-based control over print release, rules, tracking, user reporting and print governance. | Schools, law firms, offices, shared workplaces and organisations that need secure user-level print control. |
