OKI Data Americas Announces Availability Of PaperCut MF Software Solution, Offering Device Security, Confidential Printing And Enhanced Cost Control

PaperCut MF is compatible with OKI’s single and multifunction printers and open platform devices

OKI Data Americas recently announced the availability of PaperCut MF, a print job accounting and management software which works with OKI single- and multifunction printers (MFPs), and open platform MFPs. Designed to support work environments of all sizes, the PaperCut MF software solution helps organizations accurately and conveniently account for – and recoup the costs of – printing and copying. Papercut MF can be combined with a variety of card reader systems available through OKI for easy authentication.

By offering PaperCut MF, OKI Data delivers a robust software solution which reduces cost, maintains control, and better manages printing devices. The solution will allow organizations to automatically purge unreleased print jobs reducing waste and minimizing print expenses. Other vital cost savings include enforcing individual print limits, requiring duplex printing, forcing black and white printing, and redirecting large print jobs to high-volume copier-based devices. All of these savings reduce total cost of ownership for virtually any work environment from healthcare to education and government to finance.

"OKI Data Americas is pleased to offer PaperCut MF to our existing and prospective customers. All of our printing devices and solutions are designed to optimize workplace performance and deliver a compelling value proposition for organizations of all sizes," said Doug August, Senior Manager Industry Solutions at OKI Data Americas. "With OKI Data printers and complementary solutions including PaperCut, we will help customers realize immediate improvements in terms of productivity, costs and functionality."

PaperCut MF is intuitive and easy to use, and includes the following features and functionality:

  • “Find Me” Secure Print Release – “Find Me” secure print release protects the privacy of confidential documents while reducing the amount of unclaimed printouts. “Find Me” lets users retrieve a printed document from a PaperCut MF enabled device by swiping a card or entering a user name or password.
  • iPad Mobile and Driverless Web Printing – PaperCut MF provides native iPad print support and web based driverless printing as part of the core application.
  • Mobile Print Release Application – Mobile Print Release adds a convenient and cost-effective alternative to card readers, user names and passwords by using any smartphone to release queued print jobs.
  • Detailed Reporting – PaperCut MF includes more than 50 pre-formatted reports available for online viewing, printing or exporting. The reports address all areas ranging from detailed page logs to summaries by user, department, device or environmental impact.
  • Embedded Device Support – Multi-vendor fleets are easily supported with PaperCut’s extensive portfolio of embedded software which runs on popular copiers and MFPs, including OKI’s open platform MFPs.

All editions of PaperCut MF software – Commercial, Education and Professional Billing – are available through standard distribution. A free 40-day trial version of PaperCut can be downloaded from www.okidata.com/papercut-overview.
