MobileIron, the secure
foundation for modern work, and ThinPrint, the print management experts,
have entered into a technology partnership to enable mobile printing
for MobileIron customers. The enhanced cooperation can be managed and
rolled out to users via the MobileIron solution. ThinPrint Mobile Print,
which ThinPrint presented at MobileIron Live! user conference in
Berlin, is now available in the MobileIron Marketplace.
MobileIron
enables enterprises to secure and manage modern operating systems in a
world of mixed-use mobile devices and desktops. To enable mobile
printing, ThinPrint has implemented the AppConfig standard. This means
that the ThinPrint Mobile Print app can be easily pre-configured and
rolled out via MobileIron. Customers can now manage printing from their
smartphones and tablets.
The ThinPrint solution
enables printing to all existing network printers, regardless of printer
model or manufacturer. A significant advantage for IT departments is
that rights and printer assignments for mobile users can be adopted from
Microsoft Active Directory or from print servers and modified
accordingly if necessary.
This ensures that
every authorized employee can also use the same printers that they
access from their desktop - all directly from their iPhones, iPads and
Android devices in just a few simple steps.
"We're
delighted to be working with a leading Unified Endpoint Management
(UEM) provider like MobileIron," said Thorsten Hesse, CPO at ThinPrint.
"For MobileIron users, this integration closes an important gap when it
comes to mobile productivity."
"Modern work
needs modern solutions. By partnering with ThinPrint, we provide our
customers with a mobile print app that allows their authorized users to
print documents directly from their authorized iOS and Android devices
without any complex configurations," said Peter Machat, vice president
of Central EMEA, MobileIron.
