Print management
expert, ThinPrint, today announced the availability of its new product
ThinPrint Mobile Print. The new software enables companies to integrate
iOS and Android devices into their existing print infrastructure so that
employees can easily access and use all current network printers. User
authorizations are automatically inherited from the Microsoft Active
Directory or from the print server and can be additionally extended or
restricted as required for mobile users. ThinPrint's close cooperation
with the leading mobile device management (MDM) providers ensures
seamless interaction for companies with enterprise mobility management
(EMM) systems in use. The included secure pull-printing feature, which
allows users to authenticate themselves directly at the printer, rounds
off the solution perfectly.
Many
companies use an MDM or EMM system to securely manage their mobile
devices and distribute apps. However, if employees want to print with
their iPads, iPhones or Android devices, they quickly reach the limits
of mobile productivity. The new ThinPrint Mobile Print software is the
solution. It can be integrated into EMM or MDM systems to enable secure
mobile printing with iOS and Android devices. Employees can print from
iOS and Android apps on their tablets and smartphones to any existing
network printer in the enterprise, regardless of which printer models
from which manufacturer are in use. The existing user rights are
inherited from the Microsoft Active Directory (AD) or from the print
servers but can be modified if required.
ThinPrint
cooperated closely with leading MDM and file sharing providers in the
development of its mobile printing solution to ensure its close
integration into EMM/MDM solutions. Data is encrypted during
transmission and print job generation takes place securely behind the
firewall.
For additional security, a
pull-printing function included in the license can be activated as
required. Printing only starts once the owner of the print job
authenticates directly at the printer ensuring that printouts are
protected against unauthorized access. Instant Wi-Fi printing rounds off
the software's range of mobile productivity features.
"With
ThinPrint Mobile Print, we're closing an important gap when it comes to
mobile productivity," said Thorsten Hesse, CPO at ThinPrint. "We're
delighted that we were able to win nearly ten system houses specializing
in enterprise mobility as launch channel partners right from the start
and we look forward to expand this distribution network
internationally."
Launch channel partners include BFI, ABE, druckerfachmann.de, ibt, ISEC7, SCHIFFL and vleet.
