WOKINGHAM, UNITED KINGDOM: November 24th, 2010: UK based software house, Open Systems Management Ltd. ("OSM") today announced the General Availability of version 2.8 of its popular print spooling and print management software - COSprint. The release offers existing and new users of COSprint a significantly enhanced version of the software which is used for the spooling of print requests in a mixed UNIX, Linux and Microsoft Windows environment.
Neil Chaney, CEO of Open Systems Management said, "This new release gives our existing customers an enhanced, enterprise quality print spooler that is capable of handling an increased number of print requests.”
Chaney went on to say, "The driving force behind the release is OSM’s belief that software companies must be reactive to the demands from their customer base for an ever more scalable, reliable and intuitive product."
The new software incorporates a number of significant enhancements, including improvements that allow COSprint to deal ever more seamlessly with a dynamically changing print environment. It adds, for example, the ability to configure the number of times a failed print request is retried on a printer by printer basis, plus the ability to redirect a print request to an alternate device, either on submittal or on failure. COSprint v2.8 also provides for a number of administrative improvements including a single console view of all activity, the ability to control the number of simultaneously processing print requests and configuration of how retained printed requests are expired.
Chaney concluded “COSprint 2.8 exists as a result of our listening to our users as to the additional functionality and improvements that they want to see in the software. In difficult market conditions such as those seen in the last two years, it is the loyalty of our customer base which has ensured our continuing success. We owe it to those customers to do everything reasonably within our power to help them achieve their goals using our software.”
