A new set of tools, technologies, and processes – combined with more networked environments – has given companies the means to optimize their imaging operations. <br />Remote management of imaging assets now enables companies to centralize key functions, improve their ability to respond to changing business priorities, and ultimately reduce the cost of support and maintenance. Improved reporting capabilities have helped companies optimize their mix of imaging assets and streamline their imaging investments. Companies also have shown that core business processes can be made more efficient by improving the way documents are integrated into traditional workflows. Overall, the companies implementing these measures achieved direct cost savings of between 8% and 41%, with the greatest savings a result of reduced spending on hardcopy devices, reduced IT support costs, and lowered consumables spending.</p>

They can choose printers and servers equipped to support the graphics-rich IPDS data stream, or they can opt for the more affordable and significantly more pervasive SCS data stream. With its ability to support formatted text, barcodes, logos, images and other graphics, IPDS is ideal for printing invoices, checks, statements, inventory tracking paperwork and more, but this technology comes at a significant premium in both the IBM server and printer hardware. SCS, on the other hand, is standard on many IBM host servers, including the popular iSeries mid-range servers, and is readily available through a wide range of more affordable printing solutions. However, this text-based data stream is generally only suitable for printing “green bar” reports and other limited textbased documents.</p> <p>But what if there was a way to combine the power of graphicsrich documents with the pervasiveness of the SCS data stream? Better still, how about if one could output such documents on widely available and highly cost-effective HP LaserJet Printers and HP LaserJet MFP’s (Multi-Function Printers)? Capella Technologies provides such a valuable printing solution to IBM host environments.</p>
