• DRIVE IMPROVEMENTS

  All JES control information is passed to NearStar’s DataServer Enterprise Output Management Solution to help control jobs based on specific parameters. The seamless integration of these two products allows updates to the user interface with job-related information so operators can quickly identify how to set up the printers based on the job Form and job Class.

  JES DataGateway will seamlessly integrate into NearStar’s current positioned flagship product, DataServer, which allows centralized job management to any output medium including printers, email, fax, archival and related systems.
