Konica Minolta Expands Solution Portfolio with NSi Output Manager

Tuesday 27. May 2014 - New Software Platform Simplifies and Secures Information Exchange Processes

Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (Konica Minolta) and Notable Solutions today announce the immediate availability of NSi Output Manager on Konica Minolta bizhub MFPs. An integrated print management solution, NSi Output Manager is suited for office and enterprise environments in need of a convenient and secure way to control the production and delivery of printed information.
NSi Output Manager provides customers with secure print capabilities to help ensure accountability of all output, and offers a convenient means to print sensitive documents “on-demand” to an office printer. To safeguard confidential information, NSi Output Manager holds print requests in a print queue until released by the authorized user. Authentication is completed on the front panel of the bizhub MFP with a user’s username and password, or the user’s security card. Once set up by the administrator, NSi Output Manager’s rules-based printing capabilities determine the types of print jobs that each type of user can send to the device, and can also recommend a preferred printer by the print job’s page count, and/or color/monochrome. Compatible with printers and MFPs from major manufacturers, NSi Output Manager also monitors printing infrastructure with real-time, statistical displays of printing resources, and schedules email reports for full detailed accounts of printing usage.
“We are excited to offer NSi Output Manager as an integrated solution for customers to not only better manage their printing processes, but also streamline and secure output,” said Sam Errigo, Senior Vice President, Business Intelligence Services, Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. “Konica Minolta’s long-standing strategic partnership with Notable Solutions ensures customers can facilitate more-efficient information sharing and improved cost controls across their entire organization.”
NSi Output Manager ensures greater continuity of an organization’s business processes. Used with bizhub MFPs, NSi Output Manager improves overall efficiency of an output environment, helps to reduce unnecessary printing, and ensures mission critical documents are printed at the right place, at the right time.
“Earning the bEST Partner Certification for AutoStore 6.0 further solidifies our strong partnership with Konica Minolta and enables users to easily leverage AutoStore’s secure document capture capabilities for improved information sharing and responsiveness across their organization,” said Mike Morper, Vice President of Marketing at NSi. “Working together, NSi and Konica Minolta make it easier for businesses to remove the delays associated with critical business processes and use real-time information to gain a competitive advantage.”
