Branch office printing

With Micro Focus iPrint you never have to make a trip to a branch office or send print traffic over a wide-area network (WAN). Route branch-office print traffic directly from workstations to printers, using the WAN only for configuration information. Branch office employees can self-provision their printers from a browser-based corporate website.

Works with expanding organizations

Acquisitions and mergers can leave IT with the responsibility for very mixed environments. Micro Focus iPrint works with printers from all the major hardware vendors, eliminating the need for you to purchase new printers.

Works in a heterogeneous environment

Micro Focus iPrint can save IT time and money by significantly reducing the management burden required for mixed fleets of Windows, Mac, and Linux desktops. IT can manage printing from Windows, Mac, or Linux workstations from a single place.

Micro Focus iPrint partners

Micro Focus iPrint works seamlessly with products from Equitrac, Papercut, Pcounter, Axis Communications, Brother International, Canon, Dell, Electronics for Imaging, Fuji Xerox, Hewlett Packard, Konica Minolta, Kyocera Document Solutions, Lexmark International, Océ Technologies, Oki Data, Ricoh, Seiko Epson, Toshiba, and Xerox.

WalkUp printing

WalkUp printing uses a “submit, acknowledge, and release” printing method, which means that documents won’t print until the user is at the printer. Using WalkUp Printing helps users feel more secure about printing sensitive information while reducing paper waste.

Advanced authentication support

Micro Focus iPrint Appliance supports Advanced Authentication for users releasing their walk-up jobs. This multi-factor authentication solution, which uses the combination of a card and a smartphone, enables secure printing to Micro Focus iPrint printers and requires minimal administration.

Context menu-based desktop printing

The Micro Focus iPrint Client for Windows includes the option to print from the context menu. This gives users the freedom to print from any format, without needing to install printers or drivers on their desktops.

Certificate management

The Micro Focus iPrint Management Console includes a workflow for managing certificates. Using the Certificates page, administrators can simply upload the CA-signed certificates and apply them to all relevant services used by the Micro Focus iPrint Appliance.

Print portal – tags configuration

This feature enhances print-portal usability and allows for a more granular description of printers.

Print portal – disable IPP page

Administrators can disable the IPP page and thus enforce the use of the new Micro Focus iPrint Portal, giving them complete control of printer distribution.

AppConfig for Android

Associated with the Android 3.1 app release, this Micro Focus iPrint feature benefits partner vendors by giving them basic EMM support for AppConfig.

Increase the security of any email-enabled device

Print from any email-enabled device by sending an email to Micro Focus iPrint. Administrators can set up a single email address for the organization's printing or for each printer. Email administrators can also set up white lists and other controls to increase the security of your mobile, email-based printing.

Works with legacy printers

Micro Focus iPrint prevents you from having to buy multiple print solutions or new printers. Micro Focus iPrint renders and converts print jobs coming from mobile devices and sends them to any printer, eliminating the need for special mobile-ready printers.
