Toshiba Adds Preo Printelligence to the Company's Portfolio of Managed Print Services |
|
Toshiba America Business Solutions Inc. (TABS) announced the introduction of Preo Printelligence,™ a managed print services (MPS) solution that helps businesses seamlessly manage end-user print behavior, cutting costs and reducing environmental impacts without affecting employee productivity. Dealers selling MPS can use this software solution as an optional component to the Toshiba Encompass™ Assessment, which assists companies seeking to optimize their document imaging fleet. Once installed, it will unobtrusively monitor usage on a granular, end-user level. Based on the data culled, rules can be customized to control or advise users on how and where to print, whereas other MPS solutions focus on device management, Preo Printelligence helps educate and modify end-user behavior. "As a leader in MPS, we're always looking for ways to improve and expand our offerings to both dealers and customers," said Bill Melo, vice president, Marketing, Services and Solutions, TABS. "We chose Printelligence because it is a very flexible, rules-based, end-user-focused solution that will provide much more detail than we've been able to offer in the past. It truly helps employees understand the impact and cost of printing, and that in turn changes behavior quickly, and in a meaningful and lasting way." How Preo Printelligence Works Administrators don't always have to choose these friendly reminder messages. Preo Printelligence enables tighter control of end user print behavior as well. Rather than the passive "recommendation," the message can say that corporate policy "mandates" this behavior. Earlier this year, Toshiba announced they were partnering with Preo Software Inc., a market leader in Print Knowledge Management Systems. Toshiba will market Preo's Printelligence MPS solution throughout the United States, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. About TABS |
