New White Paper Released Shares Innovative Approach to Print Less
STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 19, 2012--
Pitney
Bowes Management Services (PBMS) a wholly owned subsidiary of Pitney
Bowes Inc. (NYSE: PBI), today announced it has been placed by
Gartner, Inc. in the Visionary Quadrant of the 2012 Magic Quadrant for
Managed Print Services (MPS) Worldwide.[1]
Pitney Bowes believes this placement supports the innovative approach it
takes in the managed print services marketplace as the largest
hardware-independent provider that helps companies better manage their
document flows and print less.
Developed by Gartner to evaluate how well technology providers are
executing against their current vision, the Magic Quadrant is a
proprietary research tool, which provides insight into a market’s
direction, maturity and participants.
“MPS is more than rightsizing a fleet of hardware and reducing the cost
of printed documents, it is about improving your company’s workflow,”
said Christopher Casinella, vice president, Managed Output & Mail
Solutions, PBMS. “Pitney Bowes leverages its document management and
process expertise to carefully examine document flows and the processes
that drive them to help customers streamline business processes and
workflows to print less. This is where the real value lies for
customers, not in simply managing an organization’s device network and
supplies. We focus on the document first and deliver a solution that
changes user behavior.”
In line with its visionary approach to optimizing document workflow and
output, not hardware, Pitney Bowes released a white paper -- “Optimizing
Print to Truly Print Less”. This paper provides
insights on how companies can drive significant efficiencies and savings
by optimizing their workflow before locking into long term contracts for
print devices. In addition, the paper reveals ways to reduce the number
of printed pages necessary within each business process with advanced
technology, including Adobe® LeanPrint, an enterprise-class,
software-only printing solution that dramatically reduces print costs by
using an innovative method to reformat document layouts and by reducing
ink on a page. Visit www.pb.com

Print to Truly Print Less.”
