Managed print services (MPS) help organizations manage their complex printing infrastructure, which consists of a large number of multifunctional printers. MPS vendors take care of the entire printing fleet in an organization by maintaining the printers and thus reducing the downtime. MPS vendors monitor and control the printing activities, reducing the paper wastage. Moreover, MPS allow organizations to gain insights on their printing expenses and thus assist them in devising and allocating future printing budgets. Technological developments and continuous innovation by lead MPS vendors and printer/copier manufacturers have allowed organizations to protect their vital printing data by developing enhanced authentication systems to access the printing documents. The global MPS market was valued at US$ 26.18 Bn in 2015 and is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 14.8% from 2016 to 2024, reaching a value of US$ 94.97 Bn by 2024.
