Features and applications of Sentinel print management software

Multi-Site Printing

Print management solution for organizations with multiple sites or branch offices.

For organizations and businesses with multiple branches and/or international locations that wish to manage and control all printing in one system, Sentinel is the best print management solution. While employees in various locations can initiate and collect print jobs, Sentinel secure printing ensures that no one outside the organization has access to them.

Centralized print management

Sentinel allows you to use a centralized print center without sacrificing print job security.

Recent trends in printer fleet management show that there is a definite move towards central print management.

Mobile Print

Pull print jobs wirelessly from a network printer using a mobile device (BYOD).

Usually, printing documents within the organization using a mobile device requires a special connection, and in many cases, the result is not rendered correctly, particularly when printing Microsoft Office documents.

Sentinel Print Release Controllers

Streamline and Low Profile Print Release Controllers (Printing Terminals):

Sentinel won't clutter up your office with bulky additional equipment.
Print release controllers are small and can be placed on a table or shelf, or mounted on a wall to save space. There are several models of Sentinel print release controllers produced by ePaper Ltd, compatible with any printer, MFP, MFD, copier or scanner.

Private Cloud Printing

Print — from anywhere to anywhere.

Users send print jobs. They are held in the organization's private cloud until the users pull them for printing, wherever required, via the company intranet. This method is also known as "Pull Printing". Print anywhere.

Print Reporting Tools

Improve Resource Utilization with Sentinel's Built-in Print Reporting Tools

True printing control starts with the ability to analyze print usage. Since all Sentinel print information is stored an Archive table in the database (local or SQL-type), it can be used to generate a wide variety of reports.
Sentinel has a set of built-in print reports which include information about printing activity according to various filters such as users, printing devices, date ranges, etc.
These built-in reports display various aspects of the information, both in summary and detailed formats.
It is also possible to create a wide variety of customized reports, according to the organization’s specific requirements.

Pull printing using QR codes or NFC tags and a mobile phone

Use a mobile phone as a print release controller for pull printing.

Use QR codes or NFC tags with your mobile phone or any other mobile device (tablet or even a laptop) as a secure pull printing release controller.

The device configuration web page in Sentinel allocates all physical printers with a QR code to match their IP address during device setup by default.

Mail To Print

Print your emails and attachments — directly.

Whether you are a recognized user or a guest on the network, you can forward an email message to the Sentinel system or to a printer, without connecting to the organization's LAN. Sentinel's unique solution lets you print emailed documents from your mobile device, without distorting the document format. The original look of the document is maintained.
