VendPrint
Professional
Targeted
at libraries, colleges and universities
that need to manage,
control and automatically
recover their printing costs.
VendPrint
Professional provides customers with a solution that enables
them to monitor and automatically (through
attendantless pay stations) charge for their
patrons/students printing.
VendPrint works in any environment including
Windows, Novell, Unix and Linux. VendPrint
intercepts the print jobs that are submitted
by clients connected together through a LAN/WAN
connection. Each user’s print job is
spooled (spooling is inherent to all Windows,
Mac and Unix clients, thus no client software
is required) to a designated queue. Thereafter
the user, by accessing a VendPrint Release
Station, can select his/her job to be printed
and indicate to which printer the job will
be printed. VendPrint Professional will calculate
the cost of the job, allowing payment to
be automatically collected by a number of
means
without intervention by an attendant. Payment
means can include but are not limited to
debit cards, cash, smart cards, account billing
against
a prepaid running balance, and account billing
by statements. As with all VendPrint products,
a detailed log file is written reflecting
all jobs that have been printed.

based billing.

software be installed on either the client or server. Software
must only reside on release
station for print vending to function.

with, modify, or require special print drivers. We support
all PCL, PostScript, and

versions of Windows, Macintosh clients,
Unix, Linux, IBM Midrange, and Mainframe

to assist
users when necessary.

has developed it’s own page count technology not relying on Window’s
inaccurate page counts.

free, students be charged $.10 per page and the public
could be charged $.20 per page.

ITC, Jamex, XCP, and Danyl.
- VendPrint release stations can revalue file based accounts as well as
debit cards
creating a self-service environment for users.

or file based accounts. Additionally students
review the number of pages, rename print
jobs for easy identification at the release station,
and passwords can ensure security and the integrity of the print jobs
at the release
station.

jobs, cancelled
jobs, and unclaimed jobs that timed out at
the release station.

unlimited reporting capabilities. Predesigned
