With Oce PRISMAenterprise, the centralized management of accounting, authentication and device information is easily available. Minimize effort The four elements of Oce PRISMAenterprise software work together on one server and in a variety of combinations, as needed. To optimize workflow and the efficiency of business, the device control and control panel settings can be customized. Device Manager This freeware application simplifies device set up and maintenance. With it, administrators can search for devices on the network, create and distribute initial device settings and monitor system status. Device Manager provides web-based, fast and flexible status monitoring by indicating system availability or problem occurrence. If a problem arises, alerts can be automatically distributed via email. Authentication Manager Authentication Manager controls user permissions, function restrictions and user login data for multiple devices on a network and enables the simple and efficient set up of authentication data for each user. With this tool, authentication and function restrictions can be controlled when the device environment has mixed authentication methods, such as password protection and biometric authentication. Account Manager With Account Manager, customers can analyze and manage the data for up to 2,000 devices on their network. Account Manager allows the management and reduction of costs on a group basis by defining upper limits and usage conditions. This module allows the administrator to calculate costs and clearly graph the aggregate results. My Panel Manager With My Panel Manager, users can set preferences to create a unique operator panel for themselves. They can also define frequently used scan destinations and create personal address books. Building on convenience, administrators can customize operator panel settings, address books and user interface language. These individual settings for each user can be stored on the majority of Oce office devices. When linked with Authentication Manager, a user's personal operator panel can be instantly and easily retrieved to help boost productivity. i-Option Function i-Option? offers users and administrators the ability to increase the functionality of many Oce VarioLink devices. Users can create custom welcome screens or navigation screens to make "pull" printing from network servers easier or increase security through the creation of secure PDF files.
