Print Management software enables control, organisation and optimisation of the print processes within your business. Whether you are looking to reduce printing costs or protect sensitive information, the right Print Management software tools will improve the overall efficiency of your business printing operations.
The modern workplace may increasingly be run on digital infrastructures, but for many print remains an integral part of the daily running of the office. By putting in place the right print strategy, organisations can reduce unnecessary overheads, reduce waste and add efficiency.
This can be achieved through the deployment of a print management solution to manage the overall printing environment within your business, improve workflow processes, add greater security, and support sustainability targets.
There are many reasons to choose a print management solution, but the primary purposes include:
1. Print job routing and scheduling: This enables users to route print jobs to the most appropriate printer based on location, printer availability, printer capabilities, and even print job requirements. This can help to streamline printing processes, reduce printing costs, and improve overall efficiency in the workplace.
2. Print monitoring and tracking: This allows organisations to monitor printer status, keep a detailed track of print usage and costs across the business, and even produce reports on printer usage and costs. This information is invaluable as it allows for a greater understanding of the print environment, enabling the business to define efficiencies, allocate resources in the most appropriate and help to reduce waste.
3. Print cost allocation and billing: Print management provides IT managers and administrators with a precise overview of how print is being used across the organisation. In-depth analytics can define what is being printed, by whom, where, and when. This allows organisations to allocate print costs to specific users, departments, or projects, and to generate billing reports for print-related expenses.
4. Print security and access control: Print management can help organisations protect important data by providing secure printing options, such as password-protected printing or the ability to remotely cancel print jobs. This ensures that only authorised users can access and use printers. It also provides tools for controlling printer access and usage.
