Output Management-Solutions monitor and manage the distribution and delivery of hardcopies and softcopies, thereby ensuring reliable and consistent output. In a network environment, however, documents are no longer just printed but also delivered electronically (e-mail, fax and internet). This is where output management solutions can make a serious difference. Additionally, document and job accounting solutions can track print and copy activities for financial controlling and organisational purposes. Users can analyse and examine costs and control the distribution of resources.
