Question

Centralised printing from IFS Cloud


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

Hi all,

 

We have recently implemented IFS Cloud. 

As an organisation we have centralised follow-me printing, so a single print queue with multiple multi-function printers which you release your job on your printer of choice.

 

If you Preview your document, you can print to directly to the print q as yourself.

If I send the print job via the Print Agent, it sends the job to the print Q from the cental Print Agent as Administrator, so gets lost as a none-user job on the print server.

 

It has been suggested that I have the Print Agent installed on every device, which isn’t really a viable option.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions or experience of this Follow-Me style printing and Print Agent?

 

TIA

How have you found your experience with this?

 

I’m surprised there seems to be next to no posts or discussions regarding cloud printing using single print queues with applications such as Papercut MF or Papercut Hive.

 

I’m really interested in other users experiences with this as we review our printer setup.
