Connecting branch offices with ThinPrint

Branch office printing made easy

Rapid growth of companies through globalization or acquisitions often results in branch offices being set-up and integrated into the corporate IT environment. Complex and inefficient IT environments can quickly arise due to the differences in national standards and infrastructure. And printing is one of the main cost drivers. The distances involved often mean that IT professionals cannot commute to resolve problems on site that are caused for example by unstable transmission lines or limited bandwidth.

With a centralized print concept, companies can allow branch offices to be easily integrated and radically reduce the administration costs associated with time, hardware and bandwidth requirements.

Efficiently connect, and centrally manage branch offices

With ThinPrint, branch offices can be efficiently integrated into the existing IT infrastructure. The IT environment is simplified and companies benefit through greater flexibility and independence from the hardware that they use.

With ThinPrint technology, all printers and printer drivers can be easily managed centrally, without having to install original drivers on each desktop. ThinPrint also allows printing in masked networks using a central print server. Through the highest levels of print data compression, bandwidth usage is reduced and print jobs are reliably printed without needing expensive leased lines.

 

Benefits for businesses

• Centrally manage branch office printing: Administrators must no longer commute between different branch offices to resolve problems since all printing – may it be with or without print servers, network and local printers, physical or virtual desktops – can be managed remotely from one central place. And if your organization is growing, printing in new branch offices can be set up with just a few clicks.
• Relieve the network from print data: All print jobs are transferred with the highest levels of compressed from where the print job is initiated all the way to the printer. Together with bandwidth control per location network stability is guaranteed.
• Eliminate print servers in branch offices: Print servers in branch offices are no longer needed as fast and low-data volume printing can be realized via a central print server. With the ThinPrint Hub, you easily integrate any number of network printers.
• Reduce help desk calls for printing to an absolute minimum: Users always get the printers and the quality they need. Wherever they are, even when roaming between different branches, users get one easy-to-use interface for all printers as well as fast and reliable printing.
