NetManage, Inc., a software company that provides a fast way to transform legacy applications into new Web-based business solutions, has announced the availability of iPrint, a new feature within the OnWeb solution. The iPrint feature provides resource, cost, and operational savings with direct printing, paperless billing, real-time material distribution, and seamless file conversion, the company says.

Firms today face both technical and environmental challenges when addressing iSeries printing requirements, says NetManage. Organizations typically have been unable to easily obtain crucial data from legacy servers without creating custom code to perform singular functions, the company notes. Administrators also had to address pressure to manage cost and eco-friendly practices when outputting large print jobs. With iPrint, companies can expedite information delivery worldwide, convert files to a more usable format (PDF and Excel), and facilitate real-time electronic material distribution rather than standard, paper-based documents, according to NetManage. OnWeb iPrint is the only solution of its kind to give operational benefits to the iSeries while at the same time giving organizations the ability to reduce their eco footprints, says NetManage.

"Our customers are raising the social standards of modern business by setting examples for their peers. Going green and reducing waste is a priority for our customers, so it is a priority for us to give them solutions to accomplish their goals," says Zvi Alon, chairman, president, and CEO of NetManage, Inc. "The iPrint feature eliminates the need for paper-based printing, which dramatically saves cost and natural resources," he says. "This feature is critical to the NetManage customer base, specifically our thousands of insurance and healthcare users, as many of their core job functions depend upon printing. The iPrint function leverages existing systems and applications, and brings more efficiency and convenience to customers," says Alon.
