Reduce Your Total Cost of Ownership

Most enterprise Information Technology (IT) groups rely on general purpose servers for their printing needs. General purpose servers have a higher Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) than the Canon Print Server Appliance (PSA). TCO refers to the cost of capital expenditure plus the operating expense for a product over a given period of time.

The Canon PSA has a much lower TCO since it requires less time to manage, virtually eliminating printer-related calls to the IT help desk and reducing the amount of time required for new installations. Based on our research, over a five-year period the Canon PSA’s TCO is approximately half that of a general purpose server because the PSA is easier to maintain.

For a new installation, an IT Manager using a general purpose server must set up the server by manually installing each printer driver, creating a port and a print queue, entering a location, and configuring it for each client supported operating system.

All these steps must be repeated for every print device in the enterprise. Following the print queue configuration, the IT Manager must figure out a way to distribute the drivers to clients’ computers. These additional steps significantly increase the time to set up the printing environment in an enterprise.

With the Canon PSA, the IT Manager simply plugs the appliance into the network. The PSA then discovers all the print devices and automatically publishes the shares for Canon imageRUNNER® systems. Once published, clients can download the desired print share from an easy-to-use intranet Web page with a single click. Based on internal cost estimates, the Canon PSA may save days in deployment time for the IT Manager and thousands of dollars for the company.

The PSA will discover all print devices on your network and automatically create the print queues. For most Canon imageRUNNER devices, the PSA will even detect the device configuration and automatically enable the appropriate finishing features on that printer prior to download to client computers. The easy-to-use Web interface provides “ready access” to all clients, as well as IT staff.
