CLIENT UTILITIES
In order to take best advantage of a device’s features and
capabiliites, clients need an efficient way to acess and
monitor the device. Indeed, an efficient device-
management software system is critical in order for a
client to take maximum advantage of a device’s feature
set, be it a printer, fax, scanner or MFP.
Most general users want to know first if a device is
capable of handling a particular job—for instance, if it has
duplexing, color cabability, supports specific paper sizes,
or provides certain document finishing, such as stapling or
saddle-stitch booklet making.
Second, users want to know a device’s current status—if it
is ready to print or is offline, for instance. Third, they may
also wish to know whether it is equipped with sufficient
supplies, such as toner, paper and staples, to be able to
produce their job,
Manufaucters typically provide the user with this
information either via a client software utility that is
installed on the client’s workstaion or via a printer Web
page that is accessed via the Web and a Web broswer.
Some manufacuters may also provide software that
automatically indicates (via a pop-up window) when the
user’s job is completed or if there is a printer problem.
With Internet Services, users can download PostScript,
PCL, PDF, or *.txt files and print them without having to
use the print driver.
On the CentreWare Internet Services web browser, the
General Status and Supplies Status pages supplies a
quick reference of the paper trays and solid-ink supplies.
