Managed Print Services That Turn 89 Printers, 23 Models, and Four Vendors Into One Predictable Monthly Cost
Your IT team is the de facto printer help desk. The print fleet grew organically over years and now includes printers from four brands, lease end dates spread across 18 months, toner SKUs nobody can keep straight, and rogue printers that show up when a department orders their own. The CFO wants to know what print really costs. The accurate answer requires pulling numbers from four budgets. The least senior person on IT has become the printer support person and is updating their resume.
Managed Print Services from Kelley Create consolidates your print fleet onto one partner, one service relationship, and one predictable monthly cost. Free print assessment that identifies every printer, maps actual usage, and produces real budget data. Remote monitoring catches toner shortages before users call IT. National service coverage. Same-day repair response. New and refurbished printers from Brother, HP, Kyocera, and Lexmark to right-size the fleet over time. One partner. One bill. One team.

An Unmanaged Print Fleet Is a Budget Line You Can’t Explain.
The fleet has eighty-something printers across multiple buildings and the IT team couldn’t tell you which ones print most, which ones are leased, or which ones should have been retired last fiscal. Toner orders happen by emergency. Service calls go to different vendors depending on the device. The CFO asks what print costs, and the honest answer is everything in the supplies budget plus a portion of IT time.
The right partner doesn’t sell you another printer. We run managed print: right-sized fleet, automated supplies, single service number, transparent cost per page, and a path to reducing print volume where it actually makes sense. That’s us.
What Are Managed Print Services?
Managed print services (MPS) is the ongoing operational relationship that turns a print fleet from invisible waste into a predictable, supported, and right-sized capability. The components: a real assessment of what equipment exists and how it’s being used, consolidation of the fleet onto fewer vendors and standardized models over time, remote monitoring that catches issues before users call, supply management that prevents the toner crisis, repair and service through one accountable relationship, and the analytics that produce real numbers for the CFO.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is the print assessment really free?
Yes. We do real assessments for free as a way to start the conversation. You get a fleet inventory, usage analysis, and cost data. If you take that data and shop it elsewhere, that’s a legitimate outcome. Many clients find the assessment alone identifies enough cost reduction to justify the engagement.
