Efficient printing
IGEL Universal Desktops lay the foundation for bandwidth-optimized printing and efficient print management. In addition to the integrated print solutions from Citrix, Microsoft and VMware, IGEL partners offer solutions to meet the following challenges:
Reduced printer data streams
Print jobs demand considerable bandwidth in centralized computing environments. The following problems can result from this:
- The overall performance of the network diminishes
- Data connections to stores and branch offices are blocked
- Poor productivity as a result of load peaks and latency times
- Network loads are difficult to calculate

Professional print management
Heterogeneous printer environments increase administration time because of:
- Complex driver administration
- Unwieldy printer mapping
- Security: Printer data streams unencrypted'

Printing in IBM host environments
Proprietary print environments and scenarios where different types of printers are deployed at information and service points are not compatible with the use of modern printers. The following problems are associated with this set-up:
- Connection of modern laser, matrix and label printers only possible via print servers or middleware
- Extra costs owing to additional IP addresses, switches and hubs
