PageScope My Panel Manager is equipped with “My Panel” and “My Address” features, enabling customized settings of each MFP panel to match user requirements.

PageScope My Print Manager enables realization of a simple pull printing environment. The print job is temporarily stored on the server after the print command has been input. The print job can then be output from any registered MFP once the user has been authenticated, allowing selection of the output destination according to requirements.

RBP is a system capable of processing print jobs received from the client PC according to the rules predefined by the administrator. With this system, print rules are strictly observed for each print application, thus helps reduce unnecessary printings, leading to reduction of print cost.

Benefits provided by RBP

For reducing paper costs with duplex printing Simplex printing can be output as duplex printing.

For print jobs with special conditions being sent to a specificdevice within the company

Output can be limited to high speed devices for print jobs exceedinga pre-set page count.

For limiting printing from a designated application Printing from a designated application can be limited to black and whiteoutput.

When the original document is in colour.

Change to black & white.

Rules can be applied, or restricted, according to User (User Groups), Department (Department Groups), or Device (Device Groups).

The period or time for applying the rule can be set, such as “No printing allowed onSat/Sun”, or “Printing is put on hold during lunch break (noon~1 PM)”.

Advanced management functions and outstandingaffinity enable you to create new business schemes.PageScope Enterprise Suite

Interface utilizing“INFO-Palette” design.

PageScope Enterprise Suite is the collective term for diverse applications required for the performance of tasks such as management of aggregation and authorization of devices operating in the office, user-specific panel settings and control and pull printing.

PageScope Enterprise Suite incorporates “INFO-Palette,” a brand-new design concept of Konica Minolta that enables seamless operation of MFPs or tablet computers with the uniform interface and supports smooth operation.

PageScope Account Manager is a server application dedicated to centralized management of aggregate information.

PageScope Authentication Manager is an authentication management application that enables user authentication for various devices on the server by centralized management.

Data aggregated in each category can be further categorized into smaller divisions or converted into monetary values, for example, allowing the user to make purpose-oriented use of data. These data are displayed in easy-to-understand graphic format, providing an accurate picture of the in-house usage status.

Multi-server capability for increased flexibility even in large offices.

Major benefits

Example of Multi-Server Configuration

The PSES Multi-Server configuration enables the smooth distribution of multiple processing requests that brings better balance to your communications workloads.

Cluster or load distribution configurations of servers are possible.

Supports load distribution using a load balancer.

Networking the main and sub servers allows the head office tomanage data such as authentication information.Storage of print data in the local server reduces the network loadbetween the head office and branch offices.

User-specific panel settingsand control

Panel display can be set as required for each user. Elements such as units of measurement

(mm or inches) as well as the display language can be set to suit local requirements, facilitating operation by users of different nationalities.

Document volumeaggregation management

Graphic display of aggregation and analytical data provides a ready

understanding of the operating status and facilitates studies into efficient device layouts, thereby contributing to TCO reduction.

Simple and secure pullprinting

Printing cannot be initiated unless the user is authenticated, and this eliminates the

possibility of unauthorized persons viewing printouts or failure of users to collect printouts.

Centralized management ofuser authentication

Centralized management of authentication data, function access restrictions and

counter data checks enables realization of reduced introduction costs and an efficient workflow.
