The smart solution – uniFLOW SmartClient

The uniFLOW SmartClient is available for Windows and Mac®. Once installed, print jobs submitted using the uniFLOW Universal Driver (installed in conjunction with the uniFLOW SmartClient) are held until the user identifies at the device.

uniFLOW Universal Driver included

The uniFLOW SmartClient includes the uniFLOW Universal Driver. This driver provides a simple interface with advanced printing features regardless of the printer model being used. It ensures correct output as requested and reduces user dissatisfaction with the printing process. The uniFLOW Universal Driver also encrypts and compresses print jobs sent directly from the client PC to the printer, reducing network traffic and enhancing security.

The Universal Output Queue allows users to select the printer they would like to print to. The ability to be able to print and release directly from a device close by or via the secure print queue provides full flexibility.

Location awareness

As the uniFLOW SmartClient is location-aware, users can move with their client PC between locations. If the automatic location detection fails, a default location can be set, or users can select a location themselves via a pop-up as an alternative to the default location. Post printing accounting data is sent to uniFLOW Online either by the uniFLOW SmartClient or the Universal Login Manager installed on the Canon device. Print jobs are then available on any connected printer within the user’s location.

Flexible design

The configuration and setup of the uniFLOW SmartClient can be adapted to fit specific customer requirements e.g.:

The Universal Output Queue allows easy printing directly to a physical device with immediate job release or securely with My Print Anywhere capability.
Secure print jobs can be stored on the client PC, on a Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE/ Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX or in the cloud (in uniFLOW Online).
Secure job information can be stored locally within the spool file or in uniFLOW Online.
Users can silently or actively initiate the rollout of the uniFLOW SmartClient.

Easy configuration and automation ensure a fast and seamless rollout of the uniFLOW SmartClient to all client PCs.
