Canon UK & Ireland has launched Ultra, a new flat-rate print plan designed to simplify print and document management for commercial organisations by offering a single, predictable pricing model.
Available initially to Canon’s direct commercial customers in the UK and Ireland, the service is intended to help businesses gain greater control over print costs while reducing administrative complexity. Canon said the scheme will be expanded in phases.
The Ultra plan combines printing, service and consumables into a single fixed fee, removing variable charges that can make budgeting and forecasting more difficult. Canon says the approach is designed to address common challenges such as fluctuating costs, complex billing arrangements and the administrative burden associated with managing print environments.
The offering is built around four principles – Ultra Simple, Ultra Clear, Ultra Control and Ultra Predictable – with the aim of providing greater pricing transparency and more consistent cost management.
According to Canon, the plan is designed to support both finance and IT teams by improving visibility over print expenditure and enabling more accurate financial planning.
Canon says key benefits include flat-rate pricing to avoid unexpected increases in spend, simplified budgeting and forecasting, protection against fluctuations in print volumes, improved cost visibility and reduced administration through streamlined invoicing.
Khalid Aziz, marketing director, Integrated Printing & Services Group at Canon UK & Ireland, said: “Organisations today are under increasing pressure to maintain financial control and predictability while operating efficiently. With Ultra, we’re removing the complexity traditionally associated with print management, replacing it with a simple, transparent and reliable model. By delivering consistent, all-inclusive service pricing, Ultra empowers our customers to plan with confidence, reduce administrative overheads and focus on what matters most to their business.”
Ultra is now available to Canon’s direct commercial customers across the UK and Ireland, with further rollout planned.
