Jefferson City, Missouri -September 17, 2008 - FMAudit is proud to announce version 2.0 of it's patent pending Agent.
Locally attached printers have been virtually impossible to manage. Simply put, the PC is a road-block. FMAudit released the first version of its Agent in 2005, for the first time removing this road-block. Today FMAudit released Agent version 2.0.
"Other companies make claims of what data they collect. Our users agree that FMAudit's comprehensive solution is both innovative and delivers superior data. We have learned over the last decade how crucial it is to provide mission critical data and reliability to our dealers." stated Greg Allen, COO of FMAudit, "With this philosophy and dedication in mind, it has allowed us to achieve the most comprehensive solution for our 750 dealers."
FMAudit Agent™ is a bi-directional software gateway allowing communication over the PC. This patent pending approach does not interact with the printing environment. Instead, the Agent communicates directly with the attached printers, using the same approach as that of their networked counter-parts. All communication is real-time with the electronically captured meters matching those of the printers' counter page. Agent supports one or more printers attached via USB or parallel to the PC. With no configuration required, the Agent can be deployed silently without having to visit each workstation. When used with supported HP Edgeline, LaserJet and Business InkJet printers and MFP's results include much more, such as multiple meters, device serial number, toner coverage's, consumable levels and machine-generated alerts to name a few. The Agent is compatible with all three FMAudit collection solutions including FMAudit Viewer USB™, Onsite™ and WebAudit™.
"Imitation is the greatest form of flattery." stated Kevin Tetu, President & CEO of FMAudit, "However, we've learned through years of experience what it takes to provide a truly viable solution. As with our first to market industry leading USB Key for assessment and now perhaps our Agent, others will imitate, but as always by the time they catch up we've already created the next generation solution. Our commitment to research and development gives our dealers the competitive edge they need to succeed."
