Your Challenges

Many print control solutions track the usage of printed documents, but walk-up / off-the-glass copying needs to be tracked and controlled as well.

Responsible organizations want to eliminate waste, encourage responsible behavior and make users and departments accountable for their usage.

Key Challenges

• Reduce paper output waste, to assist in meeting the environmental obligations central to today's green agenda.
• Ensure that the appropriate print device is used for large or small jobs.
• Monitor the printing and copying of every user on the network, ensuring each user is accountable.
• Vendor neutral product – no lock down to particular hardware devices.
• Raise awareness of waste and encourage people to decide whether they really needed to print.
• Simple deployment – One template configures all printers and plotters.
• Easy rollout across global network without the need for onsite administrative resources.
• Significant cost savings from changing user printing behavior.
• Best value for money of print control solutions – fast ROI.
• Web based, user friendly product with intuitive user tools.

How Xerox Can Help

PaperCut MF provides integration with Xerox MFPs, enabling the tracking, charging or billing of "off the glass" copying. The goal of PaperCut software's embedded MFP solution is to leverage the capabilities of Xerox devices to provide walk-up copier users with the same set of rich application features provided in the print control area.

• Control costs for every copy, print, scan and fax
• Centrally manage MFPs/printers and users from a simple web interface
• Report and recover costs by user, department, project, cost center, device and function
• Secure access via login, ID number or access card
• Enforce responsible use via rules, limits and popup notifications
• Enable secure print release and Find-Me printing
• Vendor neutral, supporting all major operating systems and devices
• Vendor neutral, supporting all major operating systems and devices
• PaperCut MFD Embedded is developed in-house by the PaperCut Software development team. This ensures that the copier interface is consistent with the workstation print interface.
• Integration: PaperCut is a single integrated solution and managed in one system. The embedded solution interacts with the PaperCut server using Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and web services based protocols.
• Rate of development: PaperCut is developed under a release-often policy where new features are made available to users as soon as they are complete.
• Security: All embedded solutions are developed with security in mind. Where security objectives can't be satisfied, any deficiencies are fully disclosed.
• Supported devices: PaperCut integrates with Xerox MFPs with Network Accounting / JBA
