Managed Print Services for Portsmouth Businesses & Organisations
Managing printers and photocopiers shouldn't take time away from running your organisation.
Connect helps businesses, schools and organisations across Portsmouth take control of their office printing by providing reliable hardware, offering flexible support and giving impartial, practical advice.
With many makes and models of printers and copiers available, it may feel daunting to have to find just the right machine for you. You may be tempted to choose the cheapest or one with a wide range of features.
Whether you're replacing a single office printer, reviewing an ageing printer fleet or looking for a fully managed print solution across multiple locations, we can help to take away the stress of trying to find the best machine for your organisation.
As an independent supplier, we are not tied to one manufacturer. Instead, we assess your needs and then recommend equipment and services based on what we discover. This includes factors such as print volume, number of users, required functionality, budget and existing infrastructure.

Choosing a business printer isn't simply a case of finding the machine with the longest specification list. Nor is it about finding the cheapest.
With such a wide variety of printers and copiers available, each with long lists of functions, finding the best for you can seem a daunting task.
When Connect is approached to supply an office printer, photocopier or multi-function device in Portsmouth, whatever the organisation, we take time to find out how the current set up works to see where improvements can be made.
- We look at print volumes, colour requirements, paper sizes, scanning, copying and number of users.
- We consider available space and ongoing running costs, all of which can influence which device is most suitable.
Connect then recommends equipment that best meets these needs.
We are impartial and will supply office printers, photocopiers and multifunction devices from established manufacturers. Because we're independent, our recommendations aren't restricted to a single manufacturer.
We can supply both new and remanufactured equipment and help you to compare the options available based on the requirements of your Portsmouth workplace.
Whether you need a straightforward office printer or a multifunction device combining printing, copying and scanning, we'll help you find a practical solution.

Printer Leasing & Photocopier Leasing Portsmouth
As a business ourselves, we understand that purchasing new office equipment outright isn't always the best option.
This is why Connect offers flexible printer leasing in Portsmouth for organisations that would prefer to spread the cost of their equipment and keep expenditure more predictable.
Photocopiers and multifunction printers can also be supplied through leasing arrangements, giving organisations access to suitable equipment without a large upfront purchase.
We start with a discussion about how the equipment will be used and we review your print needs before recommending a machine and suggest an agreement.
Our objective isn't to put the biggest printer possible into your office. It's to provide equipment appropriate for your actual requirements and budget.

Reduce Your Organisation's Printing Costs
A managed print service isn't simply about replacing printers.
It's an opportunity to understand how much your organisation is printing, what it is costing and whether your current setup is still appropriate.
We can undertake a print and workflow audit that shows a cost-per-copy amount making it absolutely clear what your in-house printing is costing you and provides an understanding that allows you to make changes that can reduce costs.
Connect can look at your hardware, print volumes and document workflows to identify opportunities to improve efficiency. Additionally, print management software can be used to gain greater control over your print operations.
The result is a print environment designed around your organisation rather than a collection of printers that have accumulated over time.
Start reducing your in-house print cost – ask Connect howFree Print & Workflow Audits in Portsmouth
Do you know exactly what your organisation’s printing costs are?
For many businesses, print costs are spread across equipment, toner, consumables, repairs and staff time, making the true cost difficult to evaluate.
To help organisations understand their current print environment, Connect offers a free, no-obligation print and workflow audit.
Our audit can:
- Identify inefficiencies within existing workflows
- Review copying and document distribution
- Examine consumables and running costs
- Calculate per-copy costs for colour and mono devices
- Review how documents are currently produced
- Identify opportunities for improvement
The audit is non-intrusive and can usually be completed within around an hour. We can produce a cost-per-copy evaluation for both colour and mono printing.
Following the assessment, we'll explain what we've found and recommend any improvements we believe could benefit your organisation.

For organisations with multiple printers, departments or users, print management software can help you to see how your printing resources are being used and allow you greater control over users and what is being printed.
Connect’s impartiality allows us to recommend print management solutions based on your organisation's requirements rather than pushing one software platform brand.
Depending on the solution, print management software can help you:
- Track printing activity
- Control access to printers
- Produce reports by user, department or device
- Reduce unnecessary printing
- Improve document security
- Support hybrid working
- Hold documents until the user is ready to release them
- Understand environmental impact
- Identify areas of excessive print usage
This can be particularly valuable for Portsmouth schools, larger businesses, public-sector organisations and workplaces where many people share the same printers and multifunction devices.
Print management software can be cloud based, allowing access wherever there is internet provision.
