User manual CANON UNIFLOW RULES AND ROUTING BROCHURE

[. . . ] Rules and Routing Automatically choose the best device for the job IT departments in organisations spend considerable time planning the print infrastructure for users. [. . . ] The user can then make an informed decision on which device to choose. The administrator can determine that the cheapest printer is automatically selected, meaning the user has to choose deliberately to keep the job on the more expensive device. Any savings made by following the recommendations can be stored in the database for later reporting1. Likewise, users who continually ignore the suggestions and always choose the most expensive printer can also be monitored1. Each printer can have its own set of rules that can be applied on multiple criteria, such as the total number of pages, whether the job contains colour or the application used to send the print job. The Rules and Routing module can detect the status of the printer, automatically routing jobs to the closest device, or a secure print queue2, if the originally selected device cannot print, for example, because it is out of paper or toner. Used in combination with the uniFLOW Universal Driver, jobs can easily be routed between different devices, safe in the knowledge that the job will always be printed as expected.
