Print management as it suits you
These days, any organisation – whether smaller company, corporate environment, public organisation, or educational facility – will strive to maximise their transparency and keep costs in check. Very often, print is an overseen, but essential cost factor. So what you need is a precise overview of all printing operations to enable, wherever possible, the charging back of related costs to teams, departments, and individual users. With our award-winning Dispatcher Paragon, you will get an attractive solution for the effective management of users and costs. Securing the print environment, the application facilitates detailed output & cost reporting, and provides cost assignment and chargeback, central user and role management, as well as budget and quota management capabilities. Thanks to additional core scanning capabilities, Dispatcher Paragon provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use workflow.
The world’s leading independent evaluator of document imaging software, hardware and services, Keypoint Intelligence says that “Konica Minolta Dispatcher Paragon comes with everything you need to take control of your print environment." Convincing factors:

Unified interface for print management and scanning features
Universal Print is subscription-based, integrated in Microsoft 365 and runs entirely on the cloud computing platform Microsoft Azure. That means, you can move your printing into the cloud and still use your favourite features like follow me printing, print cost accounting, detailed reporting and much more. You benefit from central control of your print related costs whilst Microsoft Azure’s redundancy helps to minimise system downtime.
Universal Print by Microsoft and Konica Minolta bizhub i-Series and Dispatcher Paragon work together to provide a secure and simple way for customers to create a corporate print environment within their Microsoft 365 business environment. The bizhub i-Series has native support for Universal Print. By integrating in bizhub i-Series with Microsoft 365, a Universal Print environment can be created without the need to build an on-premise environment. Users can enjoy a seamless printing experience and your IT department can be free from print server management.
With printers or MFPs in central locations, other employees can view their colleagues' printouts if there is no possibility to collect print jobs in a personalised way. Sometimes employees place print jobs and then quickly realise that they don't need the printout or need to correct something. Often printing costs cannot be assigned to a department.
Sharing a PC between multiple users means data risk for printed documents. In addition, printouts have to be manually sorted at the print devices to find out which print jobs belong to which employee.
By using environmental audit tools to analyse your existing printer fleet, you can obtain environmental data and make improvements where necessary. Dispatcher Paragon offers an in-depth analysis of an organisation’s print, scan and fax usage as part of reporting and dashboards. The resulting Green Report inform organisations on resources saved on paper printing such as water, timber and CO₂ emissions.
