OKI Data Americas announces its participation and Gold Sponsorship of the 2012 N-Able Partner Summit, taking place April 3-4, 2012 at the Dallas Magnolia Hotel in Dallas, TX. There, OKI will demonstrate the company's proprietary, cloud-based managed print services offering, Total Managed Print (TMP), during a breakout session entitled, "Managed Service Providers' Guide to Managed Print." The breakout session will provide business, sales and technology professionals with a compelling value proposition of the need to engage in managed print services, and will be held on Wednesday, April 4 from 1:30-2:00 p.m. CDT.

OKI will present the features and functionality of the Total Managed Print (TMP) solution, a cloud-based, modular offering that can be leveraged turnkey as a complete MPS business model, or individually at the component level, to augment an existing Managed Network Services (MNS) model. TMP provides Managed Service Providers (MSPs) with a unique advantage in today's competitive environment. The solution generates new opportunities to develop additional recurring revenue streams within existing accounts, along with the ability to procure new accounts through monitoring and managing document workflow functions, which improve print and output-related efficiencies for end-users.

"OKI is proud to serve as a Gold Sponsor of the 2012 N-Able Partner Summit, and we look forward to presenting our innovative Total Managed Print solution to MSPs and IT professionals, alike," said Tim Brien, Director of Managed Print Services for OKI Data Americas. "The Total Managed Print solution provides automated, streamlined processes embedded within an easy to use MPS interface, all of which allows managed service providers to help their customers realize greater efficiencies and improved print fleet management – all while generating immediate revenue potential for the channel."

OKI's TMP solution includes nine customizable modules specifically developed to optimize business processes and remove the burden of print ownership from the client. By implementing a total fleet management strategy inclusive of a fleet assessment resulting in strategic business proposals, continuous remote monitoring of assets and usage, automated services and supplies fulfillment and consolidated purchase and billing options, as well as a full line of exclusive, MPS-ready hardware, OKI is able to grow partner business opportunities with minimal upfront investment.

The N-Able Partner Summit gives business, sales and technical professionals the opportunity to learn and network through in-depth seminars and breakout sessions led by industry experts. The annual event will take place in six different cities between April and October, bringing industry insights, best practices and proven strategies to MSPs across the country.
