This IDC Market Perspective examines Microsoft's efforts to modernize office printing through Windows Protected Print (WPP) and Universal Print. It highlights the need for secure, efficient printing in today's digital landscape, addressing challenges with legacy systems. With WPP, Microsoft has introduced a driverless, standards-based approach for Windows printing, enhancing security and functionality. The transition to WPP impacts OEMs, ISVs, customers, MPS providers, and channel partners, requiring careful planning and collaboration."Microsoft has charted a bold course for modernizing print through the combined introductions of the Universal Print cloud service and Windows Protected Print mode," says Robert Palmer, research VP with IDC's Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions group. "The shift to a driverless, serverless architecture marks a fundamental change in the Windows printing ecosystem, enabling vast improvements in print security and accessibility while fostering a more modern overall printing experience."
