The most cost-effective means of minimising
printing costs, PrintControl efficiently manages your organisation’s
printing resources by automating user-based or group-based printing
quotas. System Admin can set quotas on users, groups, and printers
as well as filter which documents can be printed.
In most organsations, providing easy access
to printing resources is essential. Setting up and sharing printers
in a Windows NT or 2000 environment is very simple, a few clicks
and your users can print whatever they want, unmonitored and uncontrolled.
Printing without discretion becomes common policy. Microsoft NT/2000
operating systems offer no means of controlling the astronomical
costs of excessive printing.
Through PrintControl’s Manager, System
Administrators have the capability to provide, block and set quotas
on what is being printed by an individual user and/or by printer.
PrintControl can be configured to carry out a number of different
actions when users reach their printing quotas, or at any number
of customisable thresholds. These actions can be to send a popup
message to the user informing them of their quota status, send an
email to the system administrator bringing attention to a locked
quota, or take a printer off-line for maintenance and make an entry
to the event log. PrintControl's ODBC compliant database logs all
printing jobs within your network, allowing easy exports for cost
analysis and forecasting reports, as well as offering internal billing
flexibility.
Cost is the driving force behind why organisations
decide to implement a Print Quota Solution. Without a cap on the
number of pages allowed to be printed, users are going to still
be negligent with their printing. PrintControl will instantly begin
to eliminate the volume of wasted paper, and cut back the costs
on paper, toner, and printer maintenance.
PrintControl is capable of monitoring and
controlling printing by all users, even those who do not log into
your NT/2000 domain. PrintControl offers impressive levels of flexibility
by allowing organisations to monitor print resources and create
and enforce print quotas within their system from a central management
console.
Efficiently managing your organisations
Print costs and resources by automating print quotas will instantly
provide a return on investment. PrintControl removes unnecessary
printing and offers huge costs saving benefits and increased system
efficiency.
