In 1995, Sun Print Management started in the Tampa Bay area with five people, providing IBM/ AS400 mainframe services. Through hard work comes opportunity. The opportunity presented itself when our clients, in addition to mainframe services, had a need for a simpler way to manage laser printers. From there, Sun Print’s unique “penny-a-print” program was born, and the concept known today as Print as a Service (PaaS) began shaping the way our clients viewed managing print devices.
Through organic growth Sun Print has steadily grown and now manages print devices in all 50 states to include Alaska and Hawaii. More than two decades later, Sun Print has expanded to manage over 250,000 devices across 3,500+ client locations. Our unparalleled managed print services (MPS) program is trusted by clients across such industries as Healthcare, Retail, Insurance, Financial Services, Hospitality, Government and Education.
Our Managed Print Services program provides our clients with a comprehensive turn key solution for managing their print devices within their complex and ever changing environment. Our engagement begins by understanding our client’s culture and defining the areas of opportunity relative to cost reduction, hardware acquisition (capital expense or lease expense), asset and supply management, I/T resource constraints and contract flexibility. Our assessment typically results in a client friendly flexible agreement that requires no capital investment for hardware (ever) and includes all service, supplies and management for a simple per page cost. Our typical client savings is in the range of 25%-30%, while eliminating their capital budget for print devices. Additionally, clients realize an increase in end-user experience, visibility into and reporting of their print environment, and the ability to redirect I/T resources back to focusing on more strategic initiatives.
Throughout our growth, Sun Print has remained true to our beginnings by providing our clients with great service and a simple pain-free way of doing business with Sun Print. Our company delivers on exceeding client expectations by valuing speed over red-tape and empowering passionate well-resourced employees with the tools required to deliver a great client experience. We earn your trust by delivering on our promises and back it up with agreements that are flexible with no strings attached. At Sun Print we say we must “Earn it Every Day”.
For years our industry has stated that the largest unmanaged expense (up to 15% of annual revenue) in an organization is their print expense. With all the decentralized expenses that are involved in office printing, the industry experts may be right.At Sun Print, what we know for sure is that we’ve been able to help our clients bring the decentralized costs under control, while returning a typical savings of 25-30%.Our simple Print as a Service (PaaS) program is designed to deliver an operational savings and eliminate our client’s printing capital expense budget.
Our environmentally conscious spirit can be seen in our approach to the products and services we provide our clients. Our unique Print as a Service (PaaS) program provides our clients an eco-friendly scalable technology solution that includes Energy Star compliant hardware, maintenance and supplies. As the owner of the hardware and manufacturer of the supplies we provide, it allows us to align our solutions with the Sustainability initiatives of our client. At Sun Print we use a life cycle approach of “deliver, use, return, re-manufacture” which allows us to reduce the environmental impact caused by simply throwing away unused hardware and empty supply cartridges. Across the U.S., there are nearly half a million empty supply cartridges that head to the landfill each day. We feel that by making a conscious and consistent effort to reduce waste and re-manufacture that we can reduce our carbon footprint while saving valuable resources for the future. As a company we utilize the following methods to support our environmental obligations.
1. Waste reduction processes in all our manufacturing.
2. Easy “empty cartridge” collection process for our clients.
3. Provide our clients with Energy Star compliant hardware.
4. Re-manufacturing of print hardware and supply cartridges.
