Cirrato
Cirrato Oneâ„¢ Single Server Printing is not just 'added functionality' on top the 25 years old print spool server technology, but an altogether smarter, more flexible and more robust printing infrastructure. This is how it works.
Be More Secure and Print from Anywhere
Video transcript
How can an organization with multiple geographical locations manage their printers effectively, consolidate their server and printer environment, and reduce printing costs? Traditional systems make this difficult.With traditional servers, each time you print, your entire file is sent to a print server, and then to the destination printer.
To avoid heavy network traffic, large organizations have to invest in multiple local print servers. It creates extra administration, and makes it difficult to manage and support a distributed fleet. And if a server becomes unavailable, printing comes to a full halt.
With Cirrato, you have only one server, even in a global organization, and this server manages all your printers, including USB connected ones, using tiny messages. It’s like a flight controller – but for printing.
When you print, Cirrato manages your printer drivers, printer queues and printing policies. When all is clear, the file is sent directly to the printer, with the correct rules and policies applied. After printing, Cirrato collects valuable statistics.
