Centralis PrintHere 2.0

Simple, Location-Based Printing for VDI solutions and Citrix XenApp.

Overview

Centralis PrintHere is designed for organisations who want greater administrative control over their users printing or require a much simpler way of presenting a list of suitable printers to the user. Centralis has developed Centralis® PrintHere™ to meet this customer requirement for simple, location-based printing.

Using the software an administrator can set up a series of defined "Locations". Centralis PrintHere allows the import of printers into "Printer Groups". One or more Printer Groups are then assigned to each Location. When a user logs in from any Location, they are shown only the printers in the Printer Groups assigned to that Location. Users can set up their own default printers by Location, giving them the right printer each time, even when roaming between multiple sites. Centralis PrintHere can also display any locally attached printers which are not being managed via iPrint.

A simple but very useful facility that, in our experience, has had very positive feedback from our users

 

Simon Salloway, IT Infrastructure Manager, NYK Logistics

 

For users of VDI solutions or Citrix XenApp, Centralis PrintHere will determine their Location based on the information provided by their client device, rather than their server. This allows organisations with multi-site and remote working solutions to easily provide printing access, without presenting the users with a daunting list of devices and locations to choose from.

Product Benefits

  1. Users do not need to search for the printers they normally use.

  2. The administrator retains more control over printers.

  3. Users can be prevented from installing printer drivers.

  4. Roaming users do not need to set up and manage their own printing.

  5. Default printers correctly set up for users when they log in at each location.

  6. Administrators can limit users to viewing only authorised printers.

  7. In VDI or Citrix environments a users location information is based on their client not server information.
