PaperCut – Ricoh Embedded Manual

1 Overview

This manual provides an overview of the installation, configuration and operation of

PaperCut's embedded software MFD (Multi-Function Device) solutions. Today's

MFDs are smarter – they have touch screens and offer the ability to run applications

directly on the device. The goal of PaperCut Software's embedded MFD solution is

to leverage these smart devices and to provide walk-up copier users with the same

set of rich application features provided in the print control area. These include:



Secure access to device functions



End user authentication including integration with single sign-on environments



Monitoring and control of photocopying (quotas, charging, allocation and

logging)



Allocation of copying to accounts/departments/cost-centers/projects (shared

accounts)



Ability to locate shared accounts via select-from-list, keyword search or

manual code/pin entry



Release jobs from a hold/release queue (Secure & Find Me Printing)



Tracking of faxing and scanning (for devices supporting SDK 4 or higher)

Highlights of the embedded solution include:

1.1 Consistency:

The embedded solutions are developed in-house by the PaperCut Software

development team. This ensures that the copier interface is consistent with the

workstation print interface, meaning users only have to learn one system.

1.2 Integration:

PaperCut is a single integrated solution where print, internet and copier control are all

managed in the one system. Users have a single account and administrators have

the same level of reporting and administration for all services. The embedded

solution interacts with the PaperCut server using a Service Oriented Architecture

(SOA) and web services based protocols.

1.3 Rate of development:

PaperCut is developed under a release-often policy where new features are made

available to users as soon as they are complete. Unlike hardware based solutions,

new versions can be delivered to users regularly as software updates.

1.4 Vendor Neutral:

PaperCut remains true to its vendor neutral stance. All embedded solutions are

equal and support all server OS's including Windows, Linux and Mac.

1.5 Security:

A large percentage of PaperCut's user base is in Education environments where

security is important. All embedded solutions are developed with security in mind.

Where security objectives can't be satisfied, any known deficiencies are fully

disclosed.
