Analysis:

We reduce cost by holding employees and users accountable to every single document that is produced. Studies show that on average, an employee will print 35 pages in a day with 17% of those pages never being used.

We give you a better understanding of your printing environment:

Track 100% of the printing your organization does. This includes networked, local and direct to IP devices.
Our solution will build inventory lists of every printing device, computer and user.
With our volume analysis reporting tool, we can pinpoint who is doing the most printing and what devices are being used. This is how you can see clear equipment abuse and it is a good way to avoid excessive usage on high cost machines.
Install on thousands of workstations silently.

Rules:

Are you looking to cut your print expenses by up to 75%? Our printing rules engine allows you to do just that.

There are unlimited environment and cost saving possibilities:

Maintain regulatory compliance and security for your documents.
Implement rules set to prevent documents that are confidential from being printed or be alerted when they are printed.
Our system informs users before they print of environmental impact as well as the job costs. This creates an eco-conscious environment.
Redirect jobs from high cost to low cost devices, ensuring the most efficient device is being used.
Limit color usage by computer, number of pages, printer, application, and even user.

Recovery:

We ensure that every printing job is billed for and tracked. If you're a company that fails to recover your printing costs, you could be losing thousands per month in revenue.

We're in the business of turning your printing cost center into a profit center:

Our solutions recapture the cost of software in as short as 6 weeks.
You'll be able to automate 100% of client's billing processes.
Track every plot or print being produced by asking for a project code, PIN, or matter/client number.
Track scanning, faxing and copying with optional Embedded Solutions and Copy Audit.
Integration with popular accounting packages is a breeze.
Create declining balances based on total pages, job cost, color of pages, or black and white pages. This will encourage economical printing from your users.
