allows you to print documents efficiently with enterprise-level security,
sending print jobs from remote locations for printing on arrival. It is a cloud-enabled web service that allows
mobile users to easily print documents, presentations, reports and photos from
an e-mail application to any registered network printer across the enterprise.

operations through focused management of their printing and imaging
environment.It works by collecting data from HP Web Jetadmin software and the
HP Carbon Footprint Calculator, real-time status overviews are displayed. One can run scenarios to
understand how limiting energy and carbon usage,as well as spending, might
impact productivity. Easily maps consumption overtime, user defined, identifies
high-consuming devices, and pinpoint opportunities for savings.

legal team.
Control and Manage
your Print Environment
HP
Access Control Expresscombines cost-control
and security features. Offersusers to print once to the server and “pull” jobs
to any pull print-enabled HP LaserJet device. Pull printing virtually
eliminates unclaimed documents hence wastage, enhances security by requiring
authentication before releasing. Track detailed usage information for printers
and MFPs. Create and customize built-in reports to address specific questions
and concerns about printer usage by user, per device and department. HP AC
Mobile Release increases convenience by allowing users to easily authenticate
and release print jobs using their mobile device.
HP
Access Control Professional adding
to thecost-control and security featuresof HPAC Express supports authentication
through employee card access, allows managers to set and manage print policies.
The new featuresinclude server-less pull printing, which lower costs,
dual-factor authentication (pull and card) which adds an additional level to
safeguard; and the ability to send jobs via email, which increases productivity.
The Intelligent Print Management Module helps
create custom printing rules for a smarter printing environment and help
conserve energy and supplies by allocating costs by department. Hundreds of
built-in, customizable reports can communicate the value and impact of
printing, while the quota feature helps contain costs by allowing
administrators to set print page volume limits for user groups.
HP solutions and services pricing and
availability varies by number of licenses, devices, no of employees and region.
Built on HP’s Open Extensibility Platform
The solutions
launched today are built on Open
Extensibility Platform, HP’s device-independent technology1 that
allows them to work across a fleet of both old and new devices.Businesses do
not need to buy new devices in order to support the latest solutions; because
all devices support one version of a solution and one solution supports
multiple devices. These solutions can also reside on a FutureSmart server,
which helps businesses future proof the imaging and printing fleet. It also
allows one to manage solutions in the same way one monitors and controls the
devices—using HP Web Jetadmin.
With HP FutureSmart firmware, the entire
fleet of HP FutureSmart devices can be updated with new features and capabilities
as they emerge. Enterprise users can now enjoy a consistent, up-to-date
experience, no matter which device they use. From a single console, the IT
staff can remotely deploy HP FutureSmart updates across the entire fleet,
ensuring keeping pace with technology is quick and easy.
