Our Approach: Northern’s PrintCare © MPS process

We will begin with an assessment of your print environment thereby identifying devices that are inefficient or producing print jobs that generate a high cost per copy. Our MPS program will consolidate your standalone and networked devices, assess your print output, and, using your current print devices, bring to light the costs associated to your printing output. Northern’s MPS consultants will work in collaboration with your team to achieve your organizational objectives.

 

How it works

To start the process, our data collection agent tool will take a snapshot of information from your print devices. Once this information is gathered, we will analyze the data, identify problems, reveal our finding as to your real cost of printing, and make valuable recommendations for improvement.
