Xerox's move to widen the scope of its MPS offerings across the enterprise addresses the need to manage and control printing as it occurs in several parts of the organisation—at the desktop, in the home or other remote locations, or in internal print-rooms. In itself, the office environment represents a significant source of paper output and is characterised by a range of printers, copiers and multifunction peripherals (MFPs). This environment can be a huge cost drain due to the lack of control many organisations have on who is printing what, when and where. Ineffective printing practices not only lead to excessive paper wastage, but can also pose document security risks, while equipment failure can impact user productivity and put pressure on already stretched IT support resources.
