Brother brings professional A4 printing to Managed Print Services in South Africa

 ·13 Nov 2026

Brother International South Africa is introducing its Managed Print Services (MPS) offering to the local business market, providing organisations with a new option for managing their printing requirements through professional A4 printing technology.

Delivered in partnership with Taropa Technologies, Brother MPS combines the company’s established range of business printers and multifunction centres (MFCs) with tailored managed print solutions and support through an authorised dealer network.

The offering is aimed at businesses looking to improve visibility of their printing costs, simplify printer management and ensure their printing infrastructure meets their operational needs.

For organisations approaching the renewal of an existing MPS contract, or planning their IT expenditure for 2027, Brother presents an alternative worth considering.

A fresh perspective on business printing

Managed Print Services traditionally brings to mind large office printers and multifunction devices, often with A3 printing capabilities.

However, not every business or department requires A3 printing.

For many organisations, everyday printing requirements centre on A4 documents, reports, correspondence, invoices and other business materials.

Brother’s professional A4 laser printers and multifunction centres offer an alternative for businesses whose printing requirements can be met by A4 technology.

With options for mono and colour printing, as well as multifunction capabilities including printing, scanning and copying, Brother’s professional range can support a variety of office environments, from individual departments and workgroups to businesses with more demanding printing requirements.

Rather than selecting equipment based on traditional office printing configurations, Brother MPS encourages businesses to assess what they actually need.

More than just printers

Managed Print Services is about more than supplying printing equipment.

An effective MPS solution considers how an organisation prints, the associated costs, and the ongoing management of its print environment.

Brother MPS is designed to help businesses address several important considerations:

  • Cost visibility: Gain a clearer understanding of business printing expenditure and the factors contributing to ongoing costs.
  • Flexible solutions: Identify a printing solution suited to the organisation’s size, usage patterns and operational requirements.
  • Professional A4 technology: Access Brother’s range of business-ready mono and colour printers and multifunction centres.
  • Managed supplies and servicing: Reduce the administrative demands associated with consumables, printer maintenance and ongoing support.
  • Operational efficiency: Allow employees and IT teams to spend less time dealing with everyday printing requirements.

The result is a more considered approach to business printing, with equipment and services selected according to the customer’s needs.

Brother reliability, supported by Taropa Technologies

Brother has partnered with Taropa Technologies to deliver Managed Print Services to South African businesses through its dealer network.

The partnership combines Brother’s professional printing technology, backed by a 3-year warranty facilitated by Taropa Technologies, with Taropa’s local market expertise and established dealer relationships.

Rather than offering a standard solution to every organisation, the process begins with understanding the customer’s existing print environment, business requirements and printing volumes.

An appointed MPS dealer can then assess these requirements and develop a suitable Brother solution, supported by a tailored commercial proposal.

This approach allows businesses to evaluate their printing requirements with guidance from a local specialist.

Is your current MPS contract due for renewal?

An approaching contract renewal provides an opportunity to reassess whether an organisation’s existing printing arrangement continues to meet its needs.

Changes in staff numbers, document workflows, printing volumes and business operations can all influence the type of printing solution required.

Before automatically renewing an existing agreement, businesses should consider whether their current equipment is appropriate, whether their printing costs are clearly understood and whether alternative technologies could better suit their requirements.

For organisations planning their 2027 IT budgets, this is also an opportunity to evaluate how managed printing could fit into their broader operational and financial planning.

Brother’s professional A4 MPS offering provides another option for consideration.
