What Is Managed Print Services (MPS)?
Managed Print Services is an all-in-one solution designed to monitor, manage, and optimize your business’s entire print environment. The goal is to improve the way you handle printing—whether it's cutting costs, reducing waste, or ensuring your data is secure. Here's how MPS can help your business:
Cut Printing Costs: With MPS, you gain better control over how much your business prints. By tracking usage and identifying areas for improvement, we help you eliminate unnecessary printing expenses, such as overuse of ink, paper, and other supplies.
Reduce Waste: MPS optimizes your print settings to ensure that paper, toner, and energy are used as efficiently as possible. From double-sided printing to automatic supply orders, we make sure you're getting the most out of every page and every resource.
Improve Security: Sensitive business documents are often left unattended or printed without proper protection. MPS includes secure print solutions and user authentication, ensuring that your business's confidential information remains safe, reducing the risk of security breaches.
Eliminate IT Headaches: Printer maintenance and supply management are typically left to the IT department, causing unnecessary distractions and delays. With MPS, Coastal Copy takes care of everything—so your team can focus on their work and leave the printer-related headaches to us.
Why Your Business Needs MPS
Without a solid print management strategy, many businesses are unknowingly wasting money on unnecessary printing costs. Here are some shocking statistics:
The average employee prints 10,000 pages per year, and half of those pages are never even used.
Printer-related IT issues account for around 40% of all IT help desk calls.
Unmonitored printing can lead to significant security risks, like sensitive documents being left unattended in the printer tray, leaving them open to unauthorized access.
Managed Print Services helps you avoid these costly pitfalls by providing a streamlined solution that keeps your print environment in check. With MPS, you gain full control over your printing operations, reducing waste, cutting unnecessary expenses, and boosting your overall business security.

Consistent Performance: We ensure that your printers are running smoothly, with regular maintenance and automatic supply replenishment, so you’re never stuck with a broken printer or running low on toner during a busy workday.
Data-Driven Insights: With MPS, you get detailed reporting on your print usage, allowing you to make informed decisions on where to cut costs, optimize workflows, and make improvements.
Environmental Impact: Reducing waste isn’t just about saving money—it’s also about helping the planet. By optimizing your printer settings and reducing excess printing, you’re making your business more eco-friendly and sustainable.
