Report Summary

Lexmark “is deepening its commitment to its cloud services platform, enhancing scan workflow capabilities and augmenting its reporting features with advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies. This is bolstered by strong security measures and a flexible implementation process,” Quocirca said in its Cloud Print Services Market Landscape, 2024 report, which named Lexmark a leader in cloud print services for the third consecutive time.

The global market insight and research firm defines leaders as vendors that lead the market in both strategic vision and depth of service offering. Leaders have made significant investments in their service portfolio and infrastructure and are supported by strong delivery capabilities.

The report spotlighted several offerings in the Lexmark Cloud Services portfolio, including Cloud Print ManagementCloud Fleet Management and Cloud Scan Management as well as Cloud Bridge.

Among Lexmark’s strengths in cloud print services, the report named:

•   True, multi-tenant cloud architecture. LCS was architected from the beginning to be a true cloud platform with multi-tenant configuration that keeps customer and partner information segmented, secure and private. 

•   Cost-efficient for a distributed fleet environment. Lexmark Cloud Print Management eliminates the need for dedicated print servers, reducing financial and environmental costs associated with print server procurement and maintenance.

•   Strong Security. LCS supports all SAML 2.0 and OIDC-compliant identity management systems, features 256-bit AES encryption and end-to-end TLS/SSL, and requires firmware and apps to be digitally signed

Lexmark has also expanded the use of AI/ML algorithms within its Cloud Print Management and Cloud Fleet Management functionality to enhance visualisations and add new data sets into its customer governance portfolio, as well as incorporate new data collection paths into its Cloud Bridge suite.
