Your office printers are quietly bleeding your business dry—through wasted toner, IT tickets, and zero visibility into print costs. For GTA businesses, there’s a smarter way to manage it, and it starts with the right hardware backed by the right local partner.

The Problem With Most Business Print Setups

Most small and mid-sized businesses across Toronto, Mississauga, and the Greater Toronto Area are overpaying and underperforming when it comes to print. Here’s why:

No cost visibility — You don’t know what printing actually costs per page, per department, or per month

Reactive maintenance — Devices break down, work stops, IT scrambles

Security gaps — Unmanaged printers are one of the most overlooked network vulnerabilities

Outdated hardware — Aging devices slow workflows and rack up repair costs

Too many vendors — Printers, toner, service, and IT support all billed separately

Sound familiar? You’re not alone—and it’s fixable.

How This Fits Into a Managed Print Strategy

Hardware alone doesn’t solve your print problem. Pairing Lexmark devices with a Managed Print Service (MPS) turns printing from a cost centre into a managed, predictable business function.

What changes with MPS:

📊 Full cost visibility — Per-page pricing, usage reports, and budget forecasting

🔄 Proactive maintenance — Problems caught before they cause downtime

🔐 Security enforcement — User authentication, print rules, and audit trails

📦 Auto toner replenishment — Supplies arrive before you run out

🧩 IT alignment — Print managed alongside your broader IT environment

For GTA businesses with 10–200 employees, MPS typically delivers a 20–30% reduction in total print costs within the first year.
