Confirmation of Print is Critical for Check Printing Application

Miamisburg, Ohio, March 23, 2010 – Plus Technologies’ Advanced Print Spooling Software has been selected by Morgan Stanley to help streamline and improve their print operations nation wide. Morgan Stanley will use the advanced spooling software to manage the delivery of print jobs including checks to approximately 1,000 printers distributed across their environment. Morgan Stanley acquired the software from Plus Technologies partner, Bottomline Technologies.

One of the features being utilized by Morgan Stanley is “confirmation of print”. This feature is important in a check printing environment as duplicate or missing checks can cause operational issues. The Plus Technologies software, named OM Plus, utilizes bi-directional communications technology with printers to confirm that documents printed properly on a page by page basis.

With the “print confirmation” feature OM Plus will see the entire printing process taking place at the device including the receiving of the data, applying toner to the page, and moving each page to the output bin. If a print failure occurs, it will be detected by OM Plus. OM Plus will automatically fail a print job over to a backup device and notify the Help Desk with information about the job and the error codes from the printer itself. In addition, Morgan Stanley Help Desk and System Administrators are using the OM Plus zero footprint client, to view print status anywhere across their organization in real time. By implementing OM Plus Morgan Stanley can reduce printing errors, eliminate the need for duplicate printing, reduce waste, and save cost.

We are very happy to be helping Morgan Stanley improve and take cost out of their print operations said, Mike Visser, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Plus Technologies.
