INDUSTRIAL SOLUTION BRIEF

Samsung Print Fleet Management Solution for Healthcare IndustrySamsung SyncThru™ Admin features Job Accounting to track copies and prints, and the PC Dashboard to monitor devices. Job Accounting can assist institutions by control-ling the number of prints and copies made by an individual or group of individuals. The PC Dashboard enables IT staff to monitor up to 5,000 devices from one central location. Both features help control costs by predetermining numbers of copies and by deploying printer consumables, such as toner and paper, when needed.

1. Monitor device usage from a central location with the SyncThru™ Admin PC Dashboard, which contains eight customizable widgets

3. Reduce operating costs by limiting user output on a device (print, copy, scan or fax) with the Samsung SyncThru™ Admin accounting feature

Monitor devices from a central locationThe SyncThru™ Admin PC Dashboard can be customized with eight widgets that can help more effectively manage the print environment. Each widget explains device status, errors and consumable need through a graphical image, table, column or pie chart. The PC Dashboard assists with decreasing IT department costs, because staff is deployed only to the devices in true need of service and IT expenses are spent only on a machine in real need for consumables.

OverviewIssue:

• Need to reduce costs on both printing device manage-ment and excessive print-outs such as prescriptions, receipts, consent forms, and etc.

Industry TrendEven before the global financial crisis, healthcare was one of the most competitive industries. Many larger institu-tions tried to pare costs through mergers and acquisitions, increasing the number of patients with medical records and charts to be copied. Smaller hospitals also experienced the burden of copying and printing as more insurance compa-nies required greater documentation to fill patient claims.

Industry ChallengesPrinting, copying, scanning and faxing medical documents can result in hidden expenses that can cost institutions hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. Healthcare organizations need to optimize savings within their print environments by tracking the number of copies, printouts and consumables per printer. Additionally, hospitals waste resources by having Information Technology (IT) staff indi-vidually monitor and service printers versus being able to monitor from a central location.

Report device and consumables usageSeveral reports can be generated on device usage, consum-ables and accounting information. All reports can be output in Comma Separated Variable (.csv), Microsoft® Excel (.xls) or .pdf file formats

The following reports further assist healthcare institutions contain printing, copying, scanning and faxing costs:

1. Supply Forecast. Reports an estimation of how many toner cartridges should be purchased for a specified period based on supply type and toner type and state.

2. Supply Details Forecast. Shows an estimation for when to replace toner for specific devices configured with supply type and toner type.

3. Device Usage. Reports accounting activity for specific devices and the users associated with the device.

4. User Usage. Shows accounting activity and functions performed by users, along with the devices used.

5. User Group Usage. Reports accounting activity and functions performed by a group of users, along with the devices used.

Expose hidden expenses and save moneySyncThru™ Admin Job Accounting enables hospitals to au-thorize specific print, copy, scan and fax device functions and limit the volume of each function. Each user or group of users is assigned an account number that is set up by an IT administrator. The account number determines the types of functions that the user can perform on the device and the quotas which are assigned to print, copy, universal serial bus (USB), fax, and scan.

When a quota is reached, the user will not be able to per-form that particular function. Alerts can be sent to a user when a function quota is near to being met.

Also, users can be assigned specific devices, further helping to control operating costs by limiting high-volume users to high functioning devices.

By centrally monitoring print device and function usage, hospital IT staff can more efficiently manage their print environments.
