  CeBIT 2006, Hall 3, C31:
Control print cost and reduce administrative overhead

The new version 7.0 of the print management solution, ThinPrint .print, enables
analysis of print behavior in a network and boasts innovative features that
minimize administrative overhead


(Berlin/Hanover, March 2006) To reduce the cost of printing, companies need
information about print behavior in their networks. According to the IDC market
research institute, however, only 28% of all businesses are able to quantify the
number of pages printed each month by their employees. Help is found in the 
latest
version of the ThinPrint .print print management system, which the manufacturer,
ThinPrint, will be unveiling at the CeBIT in Hall 3, Stand C31. The new version 
of
the software, the leading solution for printing in distributed networks, enables
print job tracking for analysis of print behavior in a network. It therefore 
forms
a base for cutting printing costs. Features like the Dynamic Printer Matrix,
DRIVER FREE NATIVE PRINTING, and other innovations bring relief for the network
and minimize administrative overhead. The new version 7.0 will be available at 
the
end of April 2006.

.print Tracking Service
The .print Tracking Service enables analysis of print behavior; e.g., regarding
individual users or user groups, printers, paper formats, and other criteria. 
The
data is collected and displayed graphically with a web component. This provides
starting points for planning printer resources, for cutting costs, and for 
possible
optimization of the printer infrastructure. It would thus be possible for 
example,
to distribute the load evenly between different printer models to prevent 
excessive
wear on individual devices and to control the use of models with especially
expensive consumables effectively.

Dynamic Printer Matrix
The new administration tool, Dynamic Printer Matrix, makes it easier for
administrators to provide users with adequate print functionality, completely
regardless of where the users are, what connection they have, or what hardware
they use. Administrators can assign printers optionally by IP range, by client 
name,
by driver, printer, or printer class name, or by client type. The specific 
printer
is mapped automatically; i.e., it is offered to the user as possible print 
device.
At the same time, it is not only ensured that the correct printer driver is
available; it is also ensured that the respectively best transfer protocol and
the optimal bandwidth limit are used.

DRIVER FREE NATIVE PRINTING
In the new version 7.0, ThinPrint?s DRIVER FREE PRINTING, used for simplifying
administration, can now also be used in connection with thin clients and print 
boxes.
The native printer drivers are deployed centrally on a dedicated print server,
where print jobs are processed.
System administration is further simplified by the transfer of server 
configuration
with the Microsoft Management Console and automatic printer share mapping. The
ThinPrint DRIVER FREE PRINTING technology in version 7.0 is certified by 
Microsoft.
That makes rollout of the solution in, for instance, large environments much 
simpler.

"ThinPrint .print has for many years been the leading print management solution 
for
distributed environments, because it is the only complete platform that covers
almost every aspect of printing,? explains Carsten Mickeleit, Managing Director 
at
ThinPrint GmbH. "With this new version, we have made the gap between us and the
competition even greater."

The new version 7.0 of .print Engine will be available at the end of April from 
more
than 500 renowned channel partners in more than 80 countries worldwide.
