I might have hesitated a bit back then, as solutions related to security and centralized management were somewhat in their infancy. However, the vision was intriguing, and I started to consider it.

It has been a pleasure to see this area develop in recent years, with Microsoft now enabling lightweight solutions for <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/fi-fi\/universal-print\/fundamentals\/universal-print-qrcode\">more secure printing<\/a> and also <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/universal-print\/portal\/view-print-usage\">print reporting<\/a>. <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div class=\"guten-column-wrapper\">However, one blind spot has been that there are still so few Universal Print-compatible printers. Older, less compatible printers can be made to work with universal printing by installing a connector on the print server, which enables functionality for older printers. But a server is still needed for this. Another option has been to utilize third-party SaaS printing solutions that are integrated with Microsoft&#8217;s universal printing, creating a link between universal printing and older printers through the cloud.   <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div class=\"guten-column-wrapper\">Manufacturers have, however, been rapidly introducing new models that are directly compatible with Microsoft&#8217;s universal printing. Ideally, it would suffice for the manufacturer to release a compatible device-level software that enables the printer to connect to the cloud, but for some reason, they seem to prefer releasing and selling new devices. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1a36f84 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1a36f84\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-60e8d5c\" data-id=\"60e8d5c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-01ab31f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"01ab31f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Better management and security from SaaS solutions<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-04f4893 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"04f4893\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-42495e8\" data-id=\"42495e8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f806cbe elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f806cbe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"section-wrapper\" data-id=\"Cs3QKe\">\n<section class=\"wp-block-gutenverse-section guten-element guten-section guten-Cs3QKe layout-boxed align-stretch\">\n<div class=\"guten-container guten-column-gap-default\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-gutenverse-column guten-element guten-column guten-4wDKgO\">\n<div class=\"sticky-wrapper\" data-id=\"4wDKgO\">Many might be wondering why on earth we would still need third-party SaaS solutions for printer management? The answer is simple: the solutions must reflect the organization&#8217;s own needs. Above IT offers third-party SaaS-based printing solutions, originally the Danish <a href=\"https:\/\/printix.net\/\">Printix service<\/a>, which was initially built to serve the printing needs of a local university campus. Printix is a manufacturer-independent cloud-based centralized management for printing, best serving organizations with multiple locations, enabling lightweight and automated printing solutions for various business needs, also supporting common label printers.   <\/div>\n<div data-id=\"4wDKgO\"> <\/div>\n<div class=\"sticky-wrapper\" data-id=\"4wDKgO\">Printix integrates with Microsoft365 and Google environments, enabling integration with Microsoft&#8217;s universal printing, meaning that even old printers can be brought into the scope of Microsoft&#8217;s universal printing purely through the cloud \u2013 without servers. And most impressively, native support for printing is available for all common terminal and operating system types \u2013 even mobile. <\/div>\n<div data-id=\"4wDKgO\"> <\/div>\n<div class=\"sticky-wrapper\" data-id=\"4wDKgO\">Secure printing can also be a need where an organization does not want to cut corners. This may be important for the organization&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/aboveit.fi\/en\/data-protection-in-microsoft-cloud\/\">data protection<\/a>! Printix enables the use of device-specific security card readers in secure print management entirely cloud-based, authenticating Entra ID users. Print-related reporting can be done securely through its own Azure database with highly customizable PowerBI reports.   <\/div>\n<div data-id=\"4wDKgO\"> <\/div>\n<div class=\"sticky-wrapper\" data-id=\"4wDKgO\">I became acquainted with Printix solutions years ago and have successfully consulted this cloud printing into use for several different organizations in the past. Of course, many printer manufacturers are starting to have their own similar SaaS solutions, but if you want to do things manufacturer-independently and lightly, I think it&#8217;s worth looking at this. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-80b380f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"80b380f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9bc5e5e\" data-id=\"9bc5e5e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ff4527 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6ff4527\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">But what about supply maintenance?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-502d61a6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"502d61a6\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3e0e84c\" data-id=\"3e0e84c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66b39f10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"66b39f10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"section-wrapper\" data-id=\"Cs3QKe\">\n<section class=\"wp-block-gutenverse-section guten-element guten-section guten-Cs3QKe layout-boxed align-stretch\">\n<div class=\"guten-container guten-column-gap-default\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-gutenverse-column guten-element guten-column guten-4wDKgO\">Printer manufacturers often have their own applications for supply maintenance reporting, which previously had to be installed on a server corner to monitor the status of printer supplies and report this to the service partner.
