See what managed print services can do for retailers

We go beyond the floor plan to look at the worker and the job at hand.

An unmanaged output environment leaves retailers with sprawling fleets of devices with multiple vendors, models, supplies and service contracts. Frequent failure of outdated equipment and an over-burdened help desk can bog down store operations and drive up expenses. Having an output strategy is crucial for enhancing productivity and reducing costs.

Conducting a Lexmark Managed Print Services (MPS) assessment is important. We’ll evaluate your current environment and determine the right placement and right devices to meet the needs of your stores, distribution centers and headquarters. Reliability is always important, especially for core applications that you depend on daily, such as printing and publishing of signs, shelf strips and labels. Lexmark has developed devices specifically for handling these types of special media.

You’ll be poised to solve document-intensive processes with on-the-spot scanning, linking necessary hard copy documents with your core business systems, right from smart multifunction printers (MFPs)—enabling associates to spend less time with paperwork and more time on the sales floor.
