GenevaLogic has launched a new version of its print management software, Print-Limit Pro. With the debut of Print-Limit Pro 8.0, schools will find it even easier to save printing costs and protect the environment, the announcement states. This new release includes features that enhance group management, expand administrative functions and report options, and support Mac OSX 10.5.

A typical school with 1,000 students spends nearly $20,000 annually on printer paper, toner, and maintenance. With Print-Limit Pro, educators can conserve resources and save money efficiently managing printing across large, multi-platform environments, according to the announcement.

Print-Limit Pro 8.0 allows network administrators to more easily manage groups of users, allowing them to better monitor and control printing and copying expenses by individual classrooms, offices, or departments. The software’s new reports will provide system administrators with detailed listings and summaries of transaction types and amounts.

New controls for pre-paid printing cards will allow administrators to automatically import and update user information from fields in Active Director or LDAP. With this upgrade, the print management software also now fully supports Mac OSC 10.5, Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) and Microsoft Clustering services.

Print-Limit Pro’s print management software provides users with a personal environmental impact statement, designed to help them think before they hit “print.” The environmental impact statement displays the number of trees consumed, the carbon dioxide output from the printer, and how much energy has been used.

Scalable to networks serving more than 20,000 users, Print- Limit Pro features an intuitive Web interface, advanced budgeting and reporting tools, and supports all major operating systems.
