5 Setting the scene Tree types of printing scenarios – Individual or all into ONE Office Print: (distributed print) Print server consolidation From push to pull Host Print: (print from Mainframe) Reduce zOS MIPS consumption by moving conversion to IFLs (AFP to PCL, PS, IPDS, PDF etc.) From push to pull Identify users from CICS etc. Apply policy based printing without programming Mobile print: (global print) - option Print from Mobile device 5 5

Single Driver on all Workstations Single pull print queue for all Improved Citrix performance No Citrix driver issues Total centralized control Over 20% performance improvement on Citrix services due to load reduction All formatting done on server Office Print & Host Print How it works Print job is either directed to the chosen printer (push) or to the printer the users swipes their ID at (pull). All formatting done on server Mobile Print 6

15 1. The MIPS saving If print under z/OS is a part of “4 hour running average peak” the substantial saving If print is out-site 4HRAP then = 0 saving 2. The server consolidation From “print rendering simultaneous” job we have 40:800 -> 1:20 ratio 3. The PUSH to PULL saving By experience and from Gartner Group the potential saving going from PUSH to PULL is 1/3 The 3 value contributors:

21 Combining Ubiquitech’s solution leadership with MSPs Steve Groom CEO Vissensa remarked “Ubiquitech is a great example of the types of solutions that MSP’s like Vissensa can offer as an extension to a range of IT services. In this case, Vissensa was an ideal partner for Ubiquitech as our new zLinux Mainframe can offer larger scale thousands of printer estate cloud printing services alongside multitenant one or two printer services for SMB’s. Groom adds ”The trick is the way IBM zLinux can scale and handle complex workloads, which makes it a very stable platform for print as it doesn’t fall over, cause print server failures and reboots like a windows print server does…” http://www.vissensa.com/2014/09/29/ vissensa-and-ubiquitech-launch- msp-based-enterprise-cloud-print- service/ Contact: Barrie HeptonstallBarrie Heptonstall ELS + Ubiquitech + MSPs Delighted Clients
