Secure print software has existed for a number of years now. It’s a fairly common set-up for users to need to present a card or enter a PIN on a print device, to collect print jobs sent from their PC or laptop.
However, that type of software has typically required some on premise infrastructure (server / firewall) to be in place and for users to be physically in the office.
With many businesses now having workers spread across different locations, and with a general move away from on premise servers to cloud services, alternative solutions were needed.
Our Document Solutions partner, Kyocera, offers a fully cloud based service that enables users to print from multiple locations and scan directly to the cloud.
It’s called Kyocera Cloud Print and Scan, and features include
- Aimed specifically at small / medium sized businesses, it is easy to implement and simple to manage
- It has the highest security standards built in and is hosted in the EU (Frankfurt)
- Quick and easy log-in, can be linked to Microsoft or Google user accounts for single sign-on
- Users can scan to email, directly to folders in OneDrive, SharePoint, Google Drive etc
- Businesses can set print quotas and enforce policies such as double-sided printing, to save costs
- There is comprehensive reporting on quantities, split by person or department if required
- No need for any on-premise infrastructure, no port / firewall configuration is required and it doesn’t need a VPN to be in place
