Is Your Printer Fleet Management Enterprise-Grade? It Should Be.

Enterprise-Grade Printer Management | SOTI Connect

Enterprise-grade printer management standardizes how all the printers in your organization are managed. Here’s an analogy:  

Picture your car. Picture five keys, one for each door. The rear passenger key doesn’t open the front driver’s side door. The rear driver’s side key won’t open the hatch. Making things more convoluted is a sixth key for the ignition.  

Apply this analogy to mobile and industrial printers. Each manufacturer has their own tools and utilities – a “set of keys” – for management and monitoring. SOTI Connect enterprise-grade printer management is the “master key” for all your printers.  


Why Enterprise-Grade Printer Management?

What goes into selecting printers? Performance and price. Maybe legacy devices are currently in place. So, you end up with:

Printer manufacturer ‘X’ for barcode printers. These are used in the back rooms of your retail stores.

Printer manufacturer ‘X’ for barcode printers. These are used in the back rooms of your retail stores.

Printer manufacturer ‘X’ for barcode printers. These are used in the back rooms of your retail stores.

Managing this multi-vendor environment is a pain: 

  • Deploying barcode printers from ‘X’? That’s one utility. 
  • Securing label printers from ‘Y’? That’s another. 
  • Troubleshooting mobile printers from ‘Z’? That’s another. 

Printer management is simply using the individual tools provided by each manufacturer. It’s limited because each tool has its own interface and capabilities. They’re not compatible with each other, so you are constantly jumping between tools and screens. Enterprise-grade printer management enables you to select the best printers – regardless of manufacturer – for your needs and manage them through a single pane of glass. Instead of using multiple tools to manage your diverse printer environment, you use a single tool that’s compatible with all your printers.

Standardize Printer Fleet Management

From a single pane of glass, you can consistently – deploy firmware updates, adjust speed settings, provide remote support, and more, for manufacturers ‘X’, ‘Y’ and ‘Z’.  That means: 

  • Centralized management: One screen to manage printers from deployment to retirement. It’s standardized functionality makes it easy to learn and use.  
  • Freedom of choice: Select the manufacturer mix that best meets your printing objectives. No need to compromise – you pick the printers and SOTI Connect will manage them.
