Gain total control of print
management across your entire network. Callisto is a powerful
solution which is capable of monitoring and manipulating print
functions. Callisto saves you time and enables you to gain maximum
efficiency from your printers.
With Callisto, a virtual print
queue is created that appears to users as a single printer. A
number of alternative devices can then be defined which could
service the print request. If a printer goes off-line for any
reason, printing is automatically re-directed to an alternative
device. There are options for load balancing across printers.
These include combining the power of available printers to optimise
print engine speed and setting maximum job sizes for individual
printers.
Office departments typically
produce documents that demand a higher specification machine just
to cope with this task. With Callisto, these jobs can now be shared
between printers in the same or even different departments. This
means that you can now have lower volume machines that meet daily
requirements and which can also be shared when increased volume
is required. Callisto can be configured to allow re-routing of
print jobs to another similar printer when your assigned printer
is unable to print.
Benefits
Run Printers at Maximum Efficiency.
Large numbers of multiple copy documents can be split into a number
of whole copy jobs and directed to alternative print queues. This
increases the print engine speed to the sum of the utilised printers.
Time Saving on Print Jobs. Print jobs will automatically re-direct
from a device which is unavailable to an alternative print queue
for immediate printing. Re-directing jobs ensures minimal disruptions
in printing services. Full User Notification, if a print job is
re-directed, a notification is sent to the user stating that a
job has been re-directed, and to which device it has been sent.
