Choose OM Plus to Replace CUPS

In a Linux print environment, CUPS is the print spooler that is included with the software. It only provides rudimentary functionality and is not optimized or integrated with key ERP applications such as SAP, cannot provide end-to-end confirmation, does not provide advanced features such as intelligent job routing, bundling, pull printing, is not well supported, has poor user interfaces, and is difficult to maintain.

OM Plus Has Extended Capabilities

Due to these limitations with CUPS, we offer OM Plus for Linux. OM Plus is an extensive print spooling solution that offers a wide range of spooling capabilities including context-based (intelligent job routing), secure pull printing (Follow the User-style print), multiple User Interfaces, tamper-resistant printing for healthcare, color printing control, etc., as well as numerous extended solutions not available in open-source alternatives.
