Xerox and Lexmark Again Named Leaders in Quocirca’s 2025 MPS Report
Why the Quocirca MPS Ranking Matters
In today’s rapidly evolving world of document management and print infrastructures, Managed Print Services (MPS) play a critical role in improving efficiency, reducing costs, strengthening security, and supporting digital transformation. The independent global research firm Quocirca recently published its latest Managed Print Services Landscape Report 2025, in which Xerox and Lexmark were officially recognized as market leaders in MPS.
This recognition confirms Xerox’s long-standing leadership, further strengthened by the strategic integration of Lexmark. But what does this ranking really mean for organizations looking for advanced print and document management solutions? And how do other major vendors such as HP, Canon, Ricoh, and Konica Minolta compare? In this article, we explore the key insights from the Quocirca report and explain why dopartners.be is the ideal partner for Managed Print Services.
What Is Quocirca and What Does the MPS Report Measure?
Who Is Quocirca?
Quocirca is a global research and advisory organization specializing in print management, document digitization, digital workplaces, and IT services. Its Managed Print Services Landscape Report is widely regarded as one of the most authoritative references for evaluating MPS vendors.
What Criteria Are Used in the MPS Report?
The Quocirca MPS report evaluates vendors across several strategic dimensions, including:
- Strategic vision and service delivery
- Breadth of portfolio and technological innovation
- Support for digital transformation and workflow automation
- Security, compliance, and data protection
- Cost optimization and customer satisfaction
Based on these criteria, vendors are classified as Leaders, Major Players, or Challengers.
Xerox and Lexmark: A New Powerhouse in Managed Print Services
Xerox: Consistent and Proven Market Leadership
Once again, Quocirca has recognized Xerox as a Leader in Managed Print Services, marking the 16th consecutive year the company has achieved this distinction.
Xerox’s leadership is driven by:
- A fully integrated MPS portfolio, combining print, digital workflows, and document security
- Continuous innovation, including AI-driven analytics and automation
- Strong global delivery capabilities, backed by advanced security and compliance solutions
This combination makes Xerox a trusted partner for organizations seeking to transform their print environment into an intelligent, secure, and cost-efficient digital workplace.
Lexmark Strengthens Xerox’s Leadership Position
Lexmark has also been named a Leader in Managed Print Services by Quocirca, for the 13th time. Lexmark is recognized for its strengths in IoT-enabled device management, predictive analytics, and secure print and document solutions.
The acquisition of Lexmark by Xerox has created a stronger, more comprehensive MPS organization, delivering significant technological synergies such as:
- An expanded IoT infrastructure
- Data-driven and predictive MPS services
- Enhanced scalability for global enterprises
As a result, the combined Xerox-Lexmark organization is now one of the most complete and competitive MPS providers in the market.
How Do HP, Canon, Ricoh, and Konica Minolta Compare in the MPS Ranking?
While Xerox and Lexmark clearly lead the Quocirca MPS landscape, other well-known vendors remain important players in the market.
HP
HP continues to be a strong Managed Print Services provider, particularly in the areas of print security and cloud-based solutions. However, in the 2025 Quocirca MPS report, HP does not rank at the very top of the leaderboard.
Canon
Canon is frequently positioned as a Major Player, thanks to its broad hardware portfolio and document workflow solutions such as uniFLOW. Nevertheless, Canon does not outperform Xerox and Lexmark in the overall Quocirca ranking.
Ricoh
Ricoh has a solid reputation in managed print and workplace services and remains a significant vendor. According to Quocirca, Ricoh performs well but does not reach the same leadership level as Xerox and Lexmark.
Konica Minolta
Konica Minolta is recognized for its innovation in digital workplace solutions and appears regularly in Quocirca reports. However, like HP, Canon, and Ricoh, it does not achieve the highest leadership position in the 2025 MPS ranking.
In summary:
- Xerox and Lexmark are clearly designated as MPS Leaders
- HP, Canon, Ricoh, and Konica Minolta are strong competitors but score lower in the Quocirca ranking
