With this solution, architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) firms and facilities management providers can reliably and effectively capture all printing, copying and scanning activity through every output device on their network. Incorporating all activity into the same system allows for single-source reporting for all print devices and controllers. "Oce-USA continues to combine our industry knowledge and the latest technology to help our customers achieve meaningful productivity gains and cost savings," said Joyce Virnich, Vice President of Marketing for the Oce- USA, Inc.
