&lt;p&gt;Mike Feldman&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Vice President and General Manager &lt;br /&gt;Managed Enterprise Solutions&lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Onward and upward as they say!&amp;nbsp; HP&amp;rsquo;s Managed Print Services (MPS) has once again been recognized as the leader in the space by a leading analyst firm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am thrilled to report that in a recent survey conducted by IDC, &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2009/091116xa.html?mtxs=rss-corp-news"&gt;HP was identified as&amp;nbsp;a leader in their &amp;quot;Managed Print Services &amp;ndash; Global Market and Provider Analysis&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;quot; with the highest share of new and outstanding MPS contracts among hardcopy manufacturers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This, in the wake of recognition by Gartner as leading in MPS vision, and Photizo as MPS market share leader.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lucky for HP?&amp;nbsp; Not so much.&amp;nbsp; We see this as truly a reflection of hard work and commitment meeting opportunity.&amp;nbsp; As you&amp;rsquo;ve heard me say before, HP has steadily made major inroads in the business printing industry by doing the hard work up front -&amp;nbsp; transforming our portfolio, software, services, programs and skills to align with our customers&amp;rsquo; evolving needs. By successfully striving to provide customers with the best choice of partner to help them reduce imaging and printing costs, improve efficiency and reduce their environmental footprint, HP has taken the lead in the industry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To receive accolades from top analyst firms such as IDC, Gartner and Photizo Group is a testament to HP&amp;rsquo;s commitment to its customers. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot of hard work, and a lot of continuous improvement are at play here.&amp;nbsp;And an enormous thank you to all our enterprise printing customers for their vote of confidence in HP&amp;nbsp;and for making us number one in the industry!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can assure you that we are extremely proud of this recognition;&amp;nbsp;at the same time, I can assure you that we are not apt to rest on our laurels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Look out for more exciting news like this coming from HP!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/aggbug.aspx?PostID=119819" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/Managed+Print+Services/default.aspx">Managed Print Services</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/enterprise+printing/default.aspx">enterprise printing</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/IDC/default.aspx">IDC</category></item><item><title>Chris Anderson of WIRED to Kick Off HP's Input/Output Web Series on September 30</title><link>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2009/09/25/chris-anderson-of-wired-to-kick-off-hp-s-input-output-web-series-on-september-30.aspx</link><pubDate>Fri, 25 Sep 2009 18:06:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">964d1d0f-bea0-4201-a2aa-8aa369a35a46:115920</guid><dc:creator>sherristuart</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/">http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/rsscomments.aspx?PostID=115920</wfw:commentRss><comments>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2009/09/25/chris-anderson-of-wired-to-kick-off-hp-s-input-output-web-series-on-september-30.aspx#comments</comments><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hi again everyone,&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I want to bring your attention to another great virtual HP event that is sure to spark your strategic thinking.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you know, the business environment we face today looks different than years before. Reflecting on HP&amp;rsquo;s own personal experiences and listening to our enterprise customers, we know that there are different rules, unique approaches and new opportunities to seize. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a challenging but exciting time to navigate a business, which is why HP is launching a series of web interviews called Input/Output with the foremost thinkers in economics, management, technology, culture and more to discuss the impact of the new &amp;ldquo;normal&amp;rdquo; on the business environment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am looking forward to listening to Chris Anderson, editor-in-chief of WIRED Magazine and author of &amp;ldquo;Free!&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;The Long Tail,&amp;rdquo; who will be the inaugural speaker in a live webcast event next Wednesday, September 30.&amp;nbsp; We can anticipate Anderson lending his expertise on the topic of &amp;ldquo;How new technology is affecting the traditional business world.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The best part is that dialogue during this online event will be free flowing and interactive. Leading up to and during the webcast, followers can submit interview questions @IO_Mod under the hashtag #hpio.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;rsquo;t miss the conversation at &lt;a href="http://inputcreatesoutput.com"&gt;http://inputcreatesoutput.com&lt;/a&gt; at 3:00 p.m. PST, September 30 and start submitting your questions now!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mike Feldman&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Vice President and General Manager &lt;br /&gt;Managed Enterprise Solutions&lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The exciting news out of HP just keeps coming! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Right now I am at HP headquarters in Palo Alto, where some BIG news is being announced out of HP&amp;rsquo;s Imaging and Printing Group by our very own Mark Hurd and Vyomesh Joshi. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, in front of industry leaders, analysts, customers, partners and media worldwide, HP announced &lt;a href="http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/us/en/ipg/new-solutions-products-fall-2009.html"&gt;new offerings&lt;/a&gt; &amp;ndash; including&amp;nbsp; the expansion of its highly successful 25-year relationship with Canon, new channel programs, and an unmatched imaging and printing portfolio to help businesses streamline and integrate paper-intensive processes with digital workflows. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think it&amp;rsquo;s pretty clear that, with all of the building we&amp;rsquo;ve done over the past few years and with the momentum we have going, HP is clearly the only partner that can drive workflow solutions based on its expertise across IT and imaging and printing.&amp;nbsp; With our balanced combination of products, services and solutions, we are READY NOW to help our customers transform business processes and drive down costs by optimizing the infrastructure, managing the environment and improving document workflows.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pretty cool news today.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; We announced HP&amp;rsquo;s new Global Business Unit, Managed Enterprise Solutions (MES),&amp;nbsp; will be led by Bruce Dahlgren WW and I have the honor of leading HP&amp;#39;s MES business in the Americas. We have extended the recently announced HP Printing Payback Guarantee to the EMEA, Latin America and Canada regions. And, the expanded HP and Canon alliance provides MPS customers with access to the broadest portfolio of single and multifunction devices.&amp;nbsp; New channel program enhancements enable HP&amp;rsquo;s reseller partners to become even more competitive in the imaging and printing market. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All the news out of today&amp;rsquo;s press conference, on the heels of our announcement on July 13th, and the incredible energy our team, our partners&amp;nbsp; and our customers are feeling --- even in this economy! --- should be some indication of exactly who the enterprise printing mojo is with these days.&amp;nbsp; Who?&amp;nbsp; HP - the only partner that can drive workflow solutions based on its expertise across IT and imaging and printing.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you didn&amp;rsquo;t get a chance to check out the live replay of the press conference, you can hear a &lt;a href="http://webcasts.feedroom.com/audience/index.asp?eventid=33420961"&gt;replay&lt;/a&gt; for yourself. Also, join the ongoing conversation on Twitter via the &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/HP_IPG"&gt;HP_IPG handle&lt;/a&gt; and #HPBizPrint hashtag. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/aggbug.aspx?PostID=112223" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/Managed+Print+Services/default.aspx">Managed Print Services</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/enterprise+printing/default.aspx">enterprise printing</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/business+printers/default.aspx">business printers</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/HP+LaserJet/default.aspx">HP LaserJet</category><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/Canon/default.aspx">Canon</category></item><item><title>Innovations in Enterprise Document Automation:  HP Launches HP Exstream 7.0</title><link>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2009/09/10/innovations-in-enterprise-document-automation-hp-launches-exstream-7-0.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 Sep 2009 14:50:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">964d1d0f-bea0-4201-a2aa-8aa369a35a46:111593</guid><dc:creator>sherristuart</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/">http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/rsscomments.aspx?PostID=111593</wfw:commentRss><comments>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2009/09/10/innovations-in-enterprise-document-automation-hp-launches-exstream-7-0.aspx#comments</comments><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img align="left" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3417/3276072899_5bca946072_t.jpg" style="display:inline;margin:0px 5px 0px 0px;" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Great HP news today!&amp;nbsp; If you will recall, just a little over a year ago, HP acquired Exstream Software, the industry&amp;rsquo;s market-leading enterprise document automation technology. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, the news just crossed the wire that &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2009/090910c.html"&gt;HP has just launched HP Exstream 7.0&lt;/a&gt; &amp;ndash; with more than 250 enhancements &amp;ndash; to help enterprises drive business results and increase ROI through vastly improved customer communications.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Organizations across all industries are facing numerous challenges in today&amp;rsquo;s complex business environment.&amp;nbsp; On one hand, improving efficiency and retaining customers have never been more important; on the other hand, the pressure to reduce costs is unrelenting.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; HP has put in place an unmatched integrated workflow solutions portfolio and end-to-end suite of imaging and printing offerings to help our customers meet these challenges head on.&amp;nbsp; Adding to this, HP Exstream 7.0 offers a&amp;nbsp; single solution for design through delivery of any type of document across the enterprise.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;HP Exstream will also now be offered through the HP Managed Print Services (MPS) portfolio, allowing even more enterprises to provide any type of customer communications, regardless of complexity, variability, or output channel &amp;mdash; including high-volume, on-demand, and interactive document applications. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check out a demo of HP Exstream at &lt;a href="http://www.print09.com/"&gt;PRINT 09&lt;/a&gt; in Chicago from September 11 - 16, and be sure to follow the HP action at PRINT 09 at the HP Enterprise Software Booth #6658 or on the &lt;a href="http://www.twitter.com/hp_ipg"&gt;HP_IPG Twitter handle&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:x-small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Document Output for Customer Communications Management &amp;ndash; &amp;nbsp;HP Does This&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;I wonder if many of our Enterprise Printing Blog readers are&amp;nbsp;really aware of the truly end-to-end imaging and printing portfolio (products, solutions, services) HP has lined up.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;This came to mind as I was checking out a &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2009/090629a.html"&gt;recent press release&lt;/a&gt; and Forrester report which ranked &lt;a href="http://www.hpexstream.com/"&gt;HP Exstream&lt;/a&gt; as #1 in the document output for customer communications management (DOCCM) market.&amp;nbsp; Did you know HP does this?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Forrester defines DOCCM as &amp;ldquo;software used to compose, format, personalize and distribute content to support physical and electronic customer communications and improve the customer experience.&amp;rdquo;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Yes, HP does that.&amp;nbsp; If you&amp;rsquo;ve been reading and following our space, you know that HP has steadily been trying to revolutionize the way companies think of printing.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;And, by extension, communications. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;HP Exstream is a prime example.&amp;nbsp; Businesses worldwide have been turning to HP Exstream to help them streamline document processes and produce all kinds of communications through all kinds of delivery methods &amp;ndash; print, mail and online. They think of HP for more than just the cool printer portfolio, or leading managed print services offerings.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s great for HP&amp;rsquo;s breadth to be recognized.&amp;nbsp; Keeps the sparks of possibility burning!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Last week, Jonathon Weisman of the &lt;i&gt;Wall Street Journal&lt;/i&gt; wrote a very interesting and timely article around cost savings, &amp;ldquo;&lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124882436513388423.html"&gt;In a Savings Shocker, the Government Discovers That Paper Has Two Sides Front-and-Back Copies, Other Wonders Help Agencies Save $102 Million -- .006% of Deficit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Though the numbers presented might have &amp;ldquo;shocked&amp;rdquo; several of its readers, it did not come to a surprise to HP and many of our enterprise and &amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://government.hp.com/content_detail.asp?contentid=1378&amp;amp;agencyid=2"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0000ff;"&gt;government&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; customers who have already seen major cost saving as a result of implementing tactics like duplex printing and copying.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;Through Managed Print Services (MPS), HP is providing its customers with end-to-end imaging and printing solutions, as well as consulting services from the most knowledgeable in the industry, to help them become more productive, reduce waste and costs, and most importantly become more strategic about the way they think about printing.&amp;nbsp; In fact, HP announced the &lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/campaign/guarantee/index.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0000ff;"&gt;Printing Payback Guarantee&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; for qualified MPS customers this month.&amp;nbsp; By helping businesses reach their calculated savings goals in one year, HP is instilling confidence in enterprise customers&amp;rsquo; decision to implement a strategic MPS program with HP. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:small;font-family:futura bk;"&gt;It is always positive to hear about more companies realizing the unique, but simple ways they can save money. And it is heartening that US government agencies are also recognizing the opportunity by looking at &amp;lsquo;old&amp;rsquo; things in new ways. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;No matter what though, whether companies are having to cut down on spending due to economic trends or are looking to be more strategic, HP is excited to be leading the way.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mike Feldman&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Vice President and General Manager &lt;br /&gt;Enterprise Sales and Services &lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Greetings everyone &amp;ndash; exciting news today. I am at the &lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.bentlyreserve.com" title="Bently"&gt;Bently&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Reserve and Conference Center in San Francisco, and I could not imagine a more suitable location for today&amp;rsquo;s HP&amp;rsquo;s Imaging and Printing Group announcement. Touting the latest, greatest high definition digital technologies, advanced networking and unparalleled eco-friendly operations, this building truly represents innovation and forward thinking. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, in front of industry leaders, analysts, customers and media, HP chose this setting to amp up its aim at &lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.idc.com" title="IDC&amp;#39;s"&gt;IDC&amp;rsquo;s&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; estimated $18.7 billion Managed Print Services (MPS) market, growing at a rate of 4%, despite a tough economy. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How so? During today&amp;rsquo;s press conference, the company unveiled the HP Printing Payback Guarantee for qualified MPS customers. Keeping in mind that CIOs are charged with streamlining business and reducing costs through smart technology decisions, HP is instilling confidence in their decision to employ HP MPS with a bold guarantee that states if an enterprise customer does not reach their calculated savings goals in one year, HP will make up the difference. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, the company announced the HP Page Plan to allow enterprises to take greater control of their imaging and printing environment through flexible, scalable, pre-bundled solutions they can manage in-house. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you well know, the costs associated with managing a company&amp;rsquo;s print environment are staggering. Global enterprise companies are estimated to spend more than $172 billion on printing this year alone. The advancements announced today are part of HP&amp;rsquo;s forward-thinking march toward better helping customers make the move from printed documents to digital, while reducing spending. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you didn&amp;rsquo;t get a chance to check out the live &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.hp.com/guarantee" title="webcast"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;webcast&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;of the press conference, you can hear a replay for yourself.. Also, join the conversation on Twitter through the &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/HP_IPG"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;HP_IPG handle&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and #HPMPS hashtag. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Groundbreaking? We think so. My bet is that this catches the attention of a customer or two. I&amp;rsquo;ve heard company after company these days tout cost savings, but HP is willing to &lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.hp.com/guarantee" title="GUARANTEE"&gt;GUARANTEE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; it. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mike Feldman&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Vice President and General Manager &lt;br /&gt;Enterprise Sales and Services &lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope you&amp;rsquo;ve been enjoying Jean-Pierre&amp;rsquo;s posts as he shares his thoughts this week from &amp;lsquo;Managing the Challenge&amp;rsquo; in&amp;nbsp;Vienna, 26-27 May &amp;#39;09.&amp;nbsp; Great, thought-provoking, commentary. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which has me thinking that it&amp;rsquo;s becoming more and more apparent, every time I connect with customers these days, that enterprise businesses are focused more on the bottom line than looking for the newest&amp;nbsp; &amp;#39;revolutionary&amp;#39; device. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know it&amp;rsquo;s a familiar refrain that you see often in this blog, but believe me, CIOs are now digging deeper and taking a more holistic view at their IT environments and how they are connected to their businesses&amp;rsquo; strategy overall. They are looking for software and hardware that will be both cost efficient as well as help their enterprises work more productively. From Public Sector to Financial Services, Insurance and Healthcare, enterprises are looking for tailored solutions including software, hardware &lt;i&gt;and&lt;/i&gt; services to improve the imaging and printing environment of enterprise businesses. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, HP has great devices, but it&amp;rsquo;s the whole package, and the tie to improving the bottom line, that is resonating with CIOs. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A key driver in HP&amp;rsquo;s strategy towards providing value and quality solutions and services is understanding the needs of today&amp;rsquo;s enterprises. Did you know that most companies are not aware of the true cost of managing their imaging and printing environment? Studies show that as much as 90 percent of an enterprise&amp;rsquo;s total printing expenses may be invisible or uncontrolled. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Through &lt;a href="http://h20219.www2.hp.com/services/cache/83812-0-0-225-121.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;HP Managed Print Services&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (MPS), enterprises gain visibility into the true costs of managing their imaging and printing environment and realize both immediate and long-term savings. Furthermore, in today&amp;rsquo;s economic climate, companies increasingly understand that one of the most promising areas to cut capital expenditures is to look at services. And, MPS may be one of the fastest ways to cut costs immediately, as well as maintain cost savings over time. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What do you think? Do you think the latest &amp;lsquo;greatest&amp;rsquo; device or technology is driving CIO interest in enterprise printing? Or, does the whole conversation start with addressing the business problem of boosting the bottom line, improving efficiency and maximizing productivity? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s the latter folks. Believe me, it&amp;rsquo;s the solution, and delivery of the solution, that counts. Check out the &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/cache/618181-0-0-225-121.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0066a7;"&gt;solutions HP offers to help you transform your enterprise&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mike Feldman&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Vice President and General Manager &lt;br /&gt;Enterprise Sales and Services &lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone - I visited our HP Boise last week and was able to attend HP&amp;#39;s celebration to honor the &lt;a href="http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/cache/618262-0-0-225-121.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#0066a7"&gt;HP LaserJet&amp;#39;s&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; 25th Anniversary.&amp;nbsp; Can you believe it&amp;#39;s been 25 years since the introduction of the LaserJet? Market-changing, phenomenal technology, impressive business for HP, incredible customer satisfaction - standing the test of time... the HP LaserJet really did usher in a whole new era for office document publishing - making communicating simple, fast and effective. And, over the years, the LaserJet has established the bar for networking, manageability, security and color printing.&amp;nbsp; Pretty impressive, and humbling, stuff. 
&lt;p&gt;As a matter of fact, &lt;a href="http://www.idahostatesman.com/business/story/749736.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#0066a7"&gt;The Idaho Statesman covered the HP LaserJet history&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; beautifully last week.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;p&gt;Immediately following the celebration, I hosted a team meeting for the Enterprise Sales and Services group, and was struck by the juxtaposition of it all.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;p&gt;Let me tell you, it is so true - you can never rest on your laurels, and the innovative culture and drive at HP won&amp;#39;t let us do that for a minute.&amp;nbsp; Here the discussion was around the future of printing - beyond the &amp;#39;box&amp;#39; as we like to say: Managed Print Services, end-to-end solutions, helping create a complete &amp;#39;ecosystem&amp;#39; for our customers that helps them achieve better business outcomes. Improving the value and interaction our customers get out of the information within their business.&amp;nbsp; And it struck me that, for HP, this really took off 25 years ago with the introduction of the incredibly innovative HP LaserJet, which we celebrate now.&amp;nbsp; But it doesn&amp;#39;t end there. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Right now, that&amp;#39;s evident by customers&amp;#39; adoption of Managed Print Services -- it&amp;#39;s becoming a core IT focus (a key indicator would be&amp;nbsp;the &lt;a href="http://printerindustry.blogspot.com/2009/04/first-mps-conference-so-fargreat.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#0066a7"&gt;first annual Managed Print Services conference&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; hosted last week by Photizo.) Also, right here, right now, enterprises are looking to HP to help them drive efficiencies and streamline workflows.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;p&gt;And, it doesn&amp;#39;t end there either.&amp;nbsp; Down the road, we are looking at a content-centric world that will demand instant access, streamlined storage, maximized reuse and minimal waste (all for less $$$.)&amp;nbsp; I wonder what that 25 year celebration will look like?&amp;nbsp; What do you think? 
&lt;p&gt;Check out the HPTV video, &lt;a href="http://h30430.www3.hp.com/?fr_story=92a10ec8a73b9ab9d4eb19d44b46e6f28e9c3d8f&amp;amp;rf=bm" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#0066a7"&gt;Connect With HP LaserJets&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which emphasizes the collaborative capabilities of HP LaserJet solutions. &lt;/p&gt;

Services &lt;br /&gt;IPG-Americas &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Astonishing economic challenges have driven businesses to reevaluate 
capital spending, and face the stark reality that they must make cuts. As a 
result, pitches from every angle have cropped up, often spinning defense of this 
initiative or that program, without true ROI focus and objectivity.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, last week I was thrilled to see Wall Street Journal reporter William M. 
Bulkeley take an objective, ROI-focused look at a pitch that you’ve seen me give 
week after week over the past year.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That pitch? Managed Print Services Offer True Cost Savings. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In ‘&lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123544246272655641.html#articleTabs%3Darticle" target="_blank"&gt;Xerox Tries to Go Beyond Copiers’&lt;/a&gt; (The Wall Street Journal 
2/24), Bulkeley focused on companies like HP and Xerox who offer managed print 
services – consulting services offered to help enterprises reduce the number of 
printers in their fleet and cut printing costs.&amp;nbsp; While HP’s approach to managed 
print services offering goes beyond just device reduction strategies – extending 
to management and workflow improvements – it is refreshing to see mainstream 
recognition -- in the form of a Wall Street Journal article no less -- 
highlighting the impressive savings big companies can expect by signing on for a 
managed print services implementation.&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I encourage you to give the article a read – especially if you are looking 
for significant ways to cut costs.&amp;nbsp; Here are some highlights: 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The WSJ quotes Gartner analyst Ken Weilerstein as saying that, “Most 
organizations don&amp;#39;t know how many devices they have and how many pages they 
print…it&amp;#39;s not unusual to see dozens of suppliers and hundreds of different 
models.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With networked printers, a company can keep track of how much each worker 
prints and copies and restrict use of color, which costs three-or-four times 
more per page than black and white. The devices print on both sides of paper, 
reducing paper usage by 30% or so. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Companies also save space, maintenance costs and electricity by consolidating 
on a uniform fleet of multifunction devices, which are shared by five to 10 
employees. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My experience has been that over the past 5 years, enterprises have steadily 
taken more and more notice of the true cost savings to be found within their 
imaging and printing infrastructure.&amp;nbsp; In fact, Tom Codd, director of marketing 
for HP Worldwide Sales and Services told the WSJ that, &amp;#39;HP&amp;#39;s managed print 
services business has been growing at a 38% annual rate since 2004.&amp;#39;&amp;nbsp; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take a step back and evaluate which investments you can make now that will 
really help your bottom line.&amp;nbsp; Interested in learning more? &lt;a href="http://h20219.www2.hp.com/services/cache/83812-0-0-0-121.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN" target="_blank"&gt;Visit HP’s Managed Print Services portfolio&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88262" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/tags/Managed+Print+Services/default.aspx">Managed Print Services</category></item><item><title>Achieving Business Success for our Enterprise Customers</title><link>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2008/11/26/achieving-business-success-for-our-enterprise-customers.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 26 Nov 2008 19:29:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">964d1d0f-bea0-4201-a2aa-8aa369a35a46:86793</guid><dc:creator>Tac Anderson</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/">http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/rsscomments.aspx?PostID=86793</wfw:commentRss><comments>http://www.communities.hp.com/online/blogs/enterpriseprinting/archive/2008/11/26/achieving-business-success-for-our-enterprise-customers.aspx#comments</comments><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://image.wetpaint.com/image/1/BFetls2j5GD2ZOU-0ymanQ8083" align="left" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ImagePrint 2008&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m happy to report that ImagePrint 2008 was a tremendous success.&amp;nbsp; This 
year, we had a record number of enterprise customers and channel and solution 
partners in attendance.&amp;nbsp; Not only was it a great turnout, but everything from 
the breakout sessions to the keynotes to the solutions showcase were first-rate 
and we received extremely positive feedback from our customers and partners 
alike.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I have the privilege to work with many smart and talented people at HP 
and really saw my team engaging at all levels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At every turn I was hearing from customers that this event made a difference 
and that they are going to take immediate action on building their &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/ipg/?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN"&gt;Print 2.0 plans&lt;/a&gt;, 
which allow them to save money and improve their business processes just by 
assessing their imaging and printing environment.&amp;nbsp; For those already down the 
path of &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/ipg/bus-solutions/infrastructure.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN"&gt;optimizing 
their infrastructure&lt;/a&gt; and/or &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/ipg/bus-solutions/environment.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN"&gt;managing 
their environments&lt;/a&gt;, they wanted to extend their plans by &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/ipg/bus-solutions/workflow.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN"&gt;improving 
their workflows&lt;/a&gt; and streamlining their imaging and printing operations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you to everyone who attended this year’s event.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2008/081008a.html" target="_blank"&gt;HP is announcing that it has been placed in the Leaders Quadrant 
in Gartner’s Magic Quadrants for Managed Print Services Worldwide&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; For 
those of you not familiar with the Magic Quadrant – it positions vendors 
according to their &amp;quot;ability to execute&amp;quot; and their &amp;quot;completeness of vision&amp;quot; in 
managed print services.&amp;nbsp; We believe being positioned in the Leaders Quadrant in 
the Magic Quadrant is extremely important as sometimes this one report could 
help determine which vendor a potential customer selects.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You may be asking yourself what exactly does ability to execute and 
completeness of vision mean?&amp;nbsp; Here’s how Gartner defines both:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1.&amp;nbsp; Completeness of vision - This axis reflects each MPS provider&amp;#39;s prospects 
for success by analyzing its view of the market, its service operating model, 
and its strategic plans for growth and service improvements. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.&amp;nbsp; Execution - Gartner evaluates vendors in part on the quality of the 
products and services that enable their performance to be competitive, efficient 
and effective, and to have a positive impact on revenue, retention and 
reputation. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I should point out that Gartner says those who are positioned in the Leaders 
quadrant provide MPS to a wide range of customers, including the largest and 
most geographically dispersed, so they must demonstrate a truly global reach. 
They must demonstrate not only the skills to deliver today&amp;#39;s MPS, but also the 
understanding, initiative and resources to prepare for tomorrow&amp;#39;s. Leaders 
characteristically augment the full scope of MPS with a wide range of 
added-value services&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And that defines HP managed print services.&amp;nbsp; Our managed print services help 
our customers streamline management, minimize costs, maximize results, and 
contribute to environmental sustainability goals.&amp;nbsp; Our customers continuously 
tell us about the benefits they see with HP MPS and we are poised to continue to 
deliver industry-leading managed print services well into the future.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are very proud of this accomplishment.&amp;nbsp; I personally would like to 
recognize all of the hard work from the people at HP, and our partners and 
customers, in reaching this milestone.&amp;nbsp; But this doesn’t mean we’ll be taking a 
rest.&amp;nbsp; You’ll continue to see innovation from us in our portfolio of hardware, 
supplies, software and services to help our customers gain a cost-effective, 
productivity-enhancing imaging and printing environment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That’s it for now.&amp;nbsp; Be sure to check back often for more exciting news from 
HP. &lt;/p&gt;

Annual Imaging and Printing Conference&lt;/a&gt; in San Diego. We have nearly 100 
press and analysts in attendance, who will hear directly from HP about our 
offerings for the consumer, SMB, enterprise and graphic arts markets. At the 
keynote address, HP’s Executive Vice President of IPG, Vyomesh Joshi (VJ), 
talked about trends taking shape that are driven by the explosion of digital 
content, and how HP is providing greater options for our enterprise customers to 
boost productivity, security and environmental sustainability. VJ also talked 
about cool new partnerships with &lt;a href="http://www.mtv.com/"&gt;MTV&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/"&gt;MySpace&lt;/a&gt; to drive their users to hit print and 
share content. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But since you’re reading the Enterprise Printing Blog, I’m focusing this 
entry on one of our newest &lt;a href="http://h20219.www2.hp.com/services/cache/83812-0-0-225-121.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN"&gt;Managed 
Printing Services&lt;/a&gt; customers, &lt;a href="http://www.viacom.com/"&gt;Viacom&lt;/a&gt;. We 
are honored to have Joe Simon, CIO, and Bob Roth, vice president of Strategic 
Services, from Viacom joining us at the conference. Working with HP, Viacom is 
projecting &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/united-states/campaigns/viacom/index.html?jumpid=ex_11400_us/en/large/IPG/ipg20_viacom_direct"&gt;super 
savings&lt;/a&gt; of nearly 25 percent in imaging and printing costs over the next 
three years. In addition to the fantastic cost savings, Viacom’s new managed 
imaging and printing fleet from HP will provide a 50 to 60 percent increase in 
energy savings, reducing its carbon emissions associated with energy by more 
than 28 percent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To follow the goings on at the conference in real time, check out our twitter 
&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/HP_IPG"&gt;feed&lt;/a&gt; – with the Twitter Station we’ve 
set up at the event, you never know who will drop in and make a tweet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3241/2923807283_0806be79a6_o.jpg" alt="Joe Simon, CIO of Viacom" width="500" align="top" border="" height="333" hspace="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Joe Simon, CIO of Viacom, (seated in the middle) on stage during &amp;#39;The Endurance

am in the nation’s capital this week (actually Georgetown but very close to DC and on Pennsylvania Street)
with our East Coast Enterprise Customer Advisory Council (EAC). &amp;nbsp;There is
nothing better than time spent with customers – staying on the ground with the
issues and challenges they’re facing.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;And, it’s exciting for us – from the perspective of what HP has to offer
– to help them manage the challenges, improve workflows and save money.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;"&gt;Our
customers here are telling me that cost containment, green IT and &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/"&gt;green printing&lt;/a&gt;
are still the hottest topics.&amp;nbsp; Customers love HP’s &lt;a href="http://h20338.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/332262-0-0-225-121.html" target="_blank"&gt;Web Jetadmin&lt;/a&gt;
and &lt;a href="http://h20338.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/343033-0-0-225-121.html" target="_blank"&gt;Univeral Print Driver&lt;/a&gt;
and we are committed to providing a best-in-class experience with these
important software platforms. &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/aa/en/sm/WF05a/15179-15179-64195-3445110-3445110-3697393.html" target="_blank"&gt;Scanning&lt;/a&gt;
is also on the rise and our customers are successfully replacing copiers with
HP MFPs and in many cases, relying on &lt;a href="http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/cache/41377-0-0-0-121.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;HP’s
Managed Print Services&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;"&gt;We
are so lucky to have great large enterprise customers who will take 2 days out
of their busy schedules on a regular basis to meet with us and give us
invaluable feedback. &amp;nbsp;Tomorrow we will cover the product portfolio and
future direction as well as our &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/large/ipg/environment/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;green printing
solutions&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;I am looking forward to more great feedback.&amp;nbsp; These
customers shape our investments and directions.&amp;nbsp; Coming up next month we
will be in Berlin, Germany
and Calgary, Canada for more customer councils.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;On the road again – and enjoying every second
of customer interaction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Technorati tags: &lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/enterprise+printing" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;enterprise printing&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/hp" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;hp&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/hewlett+packard" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;Hewlett Packard&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/universal+print+driver" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;universal print driver&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/web+jetadmin" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;web jetadmin&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/managed+print+services" target="_blank" rel="tag"&gt;managed print services&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
