Software Shelf International, Inc., an American and British software development
and marketing company today announced that its flagship product, Print Manager
Plus, has won the coveted Sunbelt W2K News Top Award for Print Management
Software. The award is presented at Microsoft’s Tech.Ed 2004 for Best print
management software, Best price, and Best quality in the industry.
The Award was won as a result of voting from over 500,000 Y2K News subscribers
consisting of Windows NT/2000/2003 Administrators, MIS Managers, MCPs, MCSEs and
IT professionals around the world.
Print Manager Plus solves the problem of the hidden cost of printing in
organizations. According to Datamation document costs consume up to 15% of a
company’s revenues. Print Manager Plus reduces these costs.
Software Shelf CEO, Bill Feeley says, “Correct usage of Print Manager Plus can
create more savings versus license cost than any other software in an
organization. It certainly backs up and complements Hewlett-Packard’s new TPM
(Total Print Management) campaign to reduce the hidden cost of printing in an
organization.”
Print Manager Plus tracks, accounts, quotas and reports on what is printed or
plotted, by who and where and enables an IT Admin and his managers to see how to
control and reduce the costs of printing in an organization. It automates the
cost reduction actions. It requires no extra training to operate by an average
Windows IT Administrator.
Print Manager Plus is in thousands of schools and universities worldwide to
control the waste of printing carried out by enthusiastic students. It’s saving
money that can be better spent on educational programs and materials.
Customers using Software Shelf® Print Manager solutions include Microsoft,
Hewlett-Packard, Dell, British Department of Education, Siemens, Commerzbank
Germany, the Royal Air Force, Oxford and Cambridge Universities, Stanford, Yale,
State University of New York, Kennedy Space Center, CNN, and over 10,000
companies and schools worldwide.
Print Manager Plus installs in seconds on a Windows Print Server. It handles
printing from any operating system and ANY printer brand. It does not require
use of foreign port monitors as do most alternative solutions because it’s
“native” to the Windows operating systems. It looks and feels like it’s part of
the operating system itself. It is licensed per server supporting all users and
shared printers at no extra cost. It is a pure software solution with no
hardware.
Its Consultant Version for printer company consultants and sales persons is used
to design improved printer fleet hardware placement configurations that save
companies money and increase efficiency.
Its Client Billing features enable Engineering, Architecture, Law Firms, and
others to automatically bill printing and plotting costs to clients.
Its German language version is being released within weeks, with the French
language version soon to follow. Tech support comes from Software Shelf in the
US and from its European offices located in England providing support in 12
languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Norwegian,
Danish, Dutch, Portuguese, Afrikaans, Icelandic)
