ASG-Cypress™ Enterprise Output Manager

ASG-Cypress Enterprise Output Manager provides extensive queue and printer management. It allows operators to monitor the status of print jobs and control the delivery of content to any enterprise destination. Through a single, easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI), users can view and control print operations for all output devices on the network. Users can also control the devices and jobs (e.g., job queues, stock assignments, suspend/resume printing, re-route output), and view documents through this window.

Included in the ASG-Cypress Enterprise Output Manager are ASG-Cypress administration facilities and security access rights to devices, print jobs, and print job resources (e.g., stocks, banners, etc.). In addition, a comprehensive history log of all events is provided.
