Base Module:
Printer Accounting
Server (PAS) Enterprise Edition
Most copier cost measurement is based on “clicks”,
printing costs are normally not accounted for.
PAS takes care of this problem allowing administrator
s to see printing costs but also the printing
patterns of individuals and departments. PAS
eliminates the need and cost of client-side
software, as PAS is a server-based solution.
With PAS dedicated charging can be applied,
you can allocate the charges according to print
quotas, timed quotas, users/department. The
heaviest users can be identified, but also the
heaviest used machines, provoking the need to
change these heavily used printers with higher
volume machines!
Secure Document
Release Module (SDR)
The SDR module enhances the safety of network
printing environments, by preventing unauthorised
users from picking up or viewing other users
documents!
SDR holds incoming network print jobs at the
security print server. The print job is released
using a Network Transaction station. Therefore,
the user does not have to collect the job as
it is printed in case of unwanted disclosure.
For extra security print jobs are deleted from
the secure print server queue within the permitted
time, allocated by the administrator.
Rules based printing, with SDR enables the Administrator
to set rules for printing, for instance, set
priorities in the queue manager, hold or delete
print jobs by user or group. Rules based printing
eliminates, unnecessary printing, which reduces
network traffic.
Aficio Counter
Manager (ACM)
ACM provides total output volume (copiers, prints
and faxes), per defined period, and counter
information for Ricoh Aficio products. It can
be utilised for remote counter management (leasing/facilities)
or internal accounting.
With ACM you can manage the following:
- Copy/print/fax count by device
- Aficio information e.g. names, serial number,
IP address.
- Usage history from start of usage to present
or by specified period
- Take over counter information when device
location changes
ACM creates 15 additional reports to PAS’s existing
70 to create a comprehensive monitoring and
evaluation tool. These reports will be sent
at specified time periods to allocated recipients.
This information provides invaluable cost management
information. ACM will provide reports per machine
to identify which peripheral is being overused
or needs to be changed if necessary.
