The Callisto Printer Analyser from PUROSolutions Limited
The PrintDevice Analyser is
designed to enable anyone to simply detect networked printers and analyse printer activity on those devices. This simple tool is aimed at printer and copier sales people, technicians and network administrators to easily detect networked printers and display detailed device information.
However , the simplicity and cost of this device means that network printer usage can be monitored by everyone and not just industry specialists.
If you are responsible for owning or renting a number of Network Printers or copiers and manage the costs of these devices, and you cannot believe the usage on your machines, then why not monitor the devices for yourself?

The analyser could be used to:
-
Undertake a Print Audit of all Network devices.
-
Help identify if your consumables are achieving their yields.
-
Identify if your service provider is charging you for the correct number of copies or prints.
-
Identify if your devices are being used outside normal working hours.
-
Identify if your devices are used solely for business purposes!
Recording and monitoring multiple local or wide area network (LAN or WAN) print devices by Network Administrators and Consultants can be a time consuming task, especially if you need to analyse the findings. Perhaps you need to discover if the current devices are used cost effectively or to their full potential. What if you need to justify a change to print devices or additions to the network? How do you effectively audit print devices from one central location? 
The Analyser is a tool that provides you with a snapshot of all your networked devices and their meter reading information from a single workstation on the network. This information can be saved and report comparisons performed to give a true reflection of print device usage over a particular interval of time. The Analyser runs from a supplied USB device. The Analyser will also scan networked PC's for locally installed print devices and displays installed print driver details.
Results of the Callisto Print Device Analyser are saved to a csv file format for compatibility with standard software packages, and a number of reports are included, allowing for results to be produced in an easy to read format.
