If you have an infrastructure to create signage already in place but wind up outsourcing the jobs to a commercial printer and shipping piles of signs to your many store locations, OKI®has a real cost-saving solution for you.

Create your signs as you usually do, then use Distributed Printing from OKI to send the print files over your corporate intranet (using FTP technology) directly to OKI printers in your local stores, where your managers can print exactly the number of signs they need.

No PCs are required to receive files for the store printers. No shipping charges—nor damage—are incurred. And there’s no wasted material as a result of stores getting too many signs or by not receiving dated material on time.

Color accuracy ensures consistency. When a

print file (.prn) is sent from corporate headquarters to remote OKI printers, the printer settings go along, embedded in the file. You get consistent signage and promotional materials—sheet to sheet and store to store.

You also get them fast: OKI Digital Color printers deliver up to 30 pages per minute in brilliant color, and up to 37 ppm in clear, sharp black & white

Highlights:

Complimentary OKI®software enables low-cost setup for distributed file system utilizing OKI printers

Print on demand – saves time and money by getting new signage into stores faster (no need for preprinted forms requiring content)

Maintain corporate control of messaging and content while easily distributing signage in real time at the store level over the company intranet

Utilize existing MARCOM inside corporate firewall

Send files directly to OKI printers – no PCs are necessary at remote locations

Extremely easy to use – select the printer to receive and the file to send, then just hit “GO”

Change formats and content on the fly – no limits on creativity; introduce new products and programs the same day

Makes use of Secure Print and other printer functionality; prints only when ID code is entered

Embedded printer settings in file ensure consistency across multi-store base

for

immediate printing

Change material on the fly. Distributed Printing

from OKI enables you to make revisions and updates to in-store signage in real time. They can be sent as quickly as the electronic file is completed—and on display the same day!

And you can tailor your signage for individual stores as well as groups of locations: simply target specific OKI printers for your files.

An added benefit: secure printing. When a print

file arrives at your store printers via Distributed Printing from OKI, it can only be accessed by a code punched into the keypad on the printers’ operator panels. Management retains complete control of the printing process.

In addition to preventing unauthorized use of the OKI printer, this secure printing feature also allows you to send sensitive documents to a single location or group of stores.

Easily distribute corporate-created signage to regional or multi-store locations for fast, economical in-store printing.
