The solution inside ELS

Formatting print job

Formatting print job

Easy implementation- and seedless maintenance2) When the user swipes her card at the MFP of choice, the ELS recognizes the type of printer. In this case a Ricoh MFP

3) A Ricoh Print Definition File together with the generic CUPS-driver formats the print job for the Ricoh MFP

4) The job is printed at the Ricoh MFP

The solution also takes the heavy print load off the Citrix environment

• One and the same driver installed at every workstation• Since the users identifies themselves at printers (by

swiping) no relations between print queues and users need to be set up• No print drivers are to be handled and only a handful of

Print Definitions Files are to be maintained on ELS• All brands and types of printers can be handled in the

solution1) The only thing installed on users workstation is a generic driver (Linux CUPS-driver)

When the user prints the print job it is preformatted and stored on holding queue on ELS
