Introduction: Electronic Printing

Johann Gutenberg would be pleasantly surprised to discover how many so-called “modern” printing methods are very similar to his 500 year old process. How is it that, up till so very recently, forms printing technology has managed to elude the same automation trend that’s exploded efficiency and productivity levels in so many other business arenas? Sorry, Johann, but it’s time to move on...and electronic printing is the future.

 

The Advantages of Electronic Printing?

 

Obvious and overwhelming. Electronically create, store, and print checks, forms, and labels, by merging data files with forms at print time. Which means you’ll save hugely on the up-front costs of printing, shipping, and storing mountains of pre-printed forms. After all, what happens when, two months into your six-month forms supply, a new regulation forces a forms change? You fill your dumpster and empty your pockets...again.

 

Do you simply write off such waste to “the cost of doing business”? With electronic printing, it’s a non-issue. Need to make a change to an existing form or check layout? With electronic printing, an end user can revise any form on the desktop level without ever altering the application program. And it gets better. Forms get printed to plain laser paper, while checks and labels are output to blank check or label stock. Multi-part forms can be electronically burst and distributed to any printer on your network.

 

Now that we’ve determined that staying with a traditional forms printing approach would be like going back to typewriters and carbon paper, what would the ideal electronic printing software look like? How about a product that’s incredibly easy to use, very comprehensive - it handles all your jobs: checks, forms, and labels - and specifically designed to interface with the #1 selling computer platform in the world - the AS/400?
