Centralized and Distributed Print Management Capability in One Solution

In this Case Study, we will solved a dilemma faced by many companies implementing Advanced Spooling solutions across multiple geographic locations. The common dilemma is, how to deploy Advanced Spooling software like OM Plus, across multiple sites in a way that allows them to have the advantages of both a distributed and centralized implementation.

While this customer is in the health care industry, we have seen similar situations across many industries with multiple remote offices or locations. For example, this situation can apply to Banking (branches), Retail (stores), Health Care (hospitals), Insurance (offices) and Manufacturing (production facilities).

• Two large data centers (one on west coast and one on east coast of the United States) each running mainframe and UNIX applications
• Multiple regional centers around the United States running UNIX and Windows applications
• Over 5,000 printers, of various types, spread across the sites listed above, printing patient care and other business related documents
• Document volume in the tens of millions of pages per month

Business Problem – Given the size and complexity of this customer environment, managing a reliable and secure print infrastructure or print server environment was more than the customer could handle without an Advanced Spooling solution.
