Rules Based Printing

Rules-based printing techniques work to reduce an organization’s costs, environmental impact, and security risks by intercepting printer usage at the server level.

Laser Technologies experts design features according to each organization’s wishes. For example, tracking and/or restricting the usage of devices per person or per department, enforcing duplex printing, and restricting color printing reduce paper and toner use, thereby reducing costs and environmental impact. Requiring a user to enter a passcode at the printer before printing confidential materials ensures sensitive documents are not left unattended at the printer.

Key Features

Features are designed to work together to help your business reduce printing and imaging costs, and mitigate image-related security risks and negative effects on the environment:

Manage Output: Create custom printing rules using filters, routing, and redirection.
Track Usage: Track and optimize the use of printing and imaging devices and supplies.
Audit Usage: Monitor and report or charge back on a per-document, per-user, per-client or per-department basis.
Reduce Risk: Increase document security by requiring users to authenticate prior to printing, copying, or e-mailing at the device and reduce unclaimed documents at the device output bin.
Minimize Carbon Footprint: Reduce paper and toner consumption by changing a user's printing behavior.
Simple to Install and Use: Begin tracking immediately by installing on any major operating system. Designed to support all platforms from small to large organizations.

How You Benefit
