    2. The one Net vision This represents our one Net vision. As a company, we are committed to providing solutions to your business problems based on the fulfillment of this strategic framework. Since we announced one Net in 1999, we have been working to identify and develop the technologies, products and solution suites that make the vision a reality for our customers. One Net brings you closer to a world where networks of all types work together seamlessly, so you can connect employees, customers, suppliers and partners across organizational boundaries – and give them faster, easier and more secure access to all the information and resources they need, when and where they need it. And our fulfillment of the one Net strategic framework translates directly into business solutions that offer more opportunity, higher ROI and closer, more productive relationships with you and everyone who matters to your business. Let’s take a brief tour of one Net to help set the context for our discussion today. Starting in the center, our Ngage teams employ proven methodologies and expertise, training, and support at all levels of your organization to facilitate the design, development and deployment of secure, scalable business solutions. Novell exteNd, our integrated development environment for the creation of Web services-based solutions help transform rigid “silo” applications into personalized, standards-based, process-driven secure Web solutions. Novell Nsure, our secure identity management solutions family, delivers your enterprise resources and business information based on who people are and what they need, wherever they need it. Novell Nterprise, our cross platform network services suites, add invaluable capabilities to all kinds of mixed networks and diverse infrastructures. Nterprise solutions are the embodiment of this philosophy. We will deliver and support the services on the platforms our customers and the market demand. Today and in the foreseeable future, Linux running on Intel is the platform the market and our customers are demanding. This represents our one Net vision.

    6. iPrint overview The 20,000 foot view. User or workstation – do not rely on Client 32, separate iPrint client with own install iPrint client is based on IPP protocol which is an open standard. IPP “rides” in HTTP which is transported by TCP/IP Works in an IP based network, which includes a local network running TCP/IP, a WAN, or the Internet Server – contains the Print Manager as the “heart” of the server-side piece.

    8. iPrint Questions and Answers

    9. iPrint a Net service The maturing model for Net access expects much more than just retrieving information about a company’s printing configuration and status. The real power of the Net lies in achieving identical experiences, in the quality of service, level of functionality, and look and feel of the process involved, for all intended users, regardless of their point of access.

    10. iPrint a Net service Characteristics of a successful “Net” service Internet technology-based Leverage the Internet - Worldwide connectivity Internet Protocols - TCP/IP & HTTP Firewalls, Proxies, other WWW infrastructure technologies “On-demand” / “Contract-based” No pre-configuration of service As service discovered – needed components provided Highly customizable Secure

    11. iPrint a Net service Characteristics of iPrint service Global access to printer via Internet IPP protocol (IETF-ratified IPP [RFC 2910]) Client provided on-demand NO client32 dependency Customizable view of any print environment Flexible print deployment configurations Graphic representation Secure printing Encryption Authorization

    12. iPrint Questions and Answers

    13. iPrint focus I would like to have some effect with this slide and the next slide. You can see a one to one relationship between the administrative value and how it equates to a end user value. Some type of animation ???I would like to have some effect with this slide and the next slide. You can see a one to one relationship between the administrative value and how it equates to a end user value. Some type of animation ???

    14. iPrint corporate value Increase employee productivity with easy access to the right tools and services Printing – anywhere, anytime, from any machine Global (internet access) to printing No geographical boundaries Empowerment reduces IT administrative and support costs Appliance Model – ease of deployment and management Help control printing and print related costs Track print behavior and trends with Auditing Works with existing printers - no additional printer hardware costs

    15. iPrint administrative value Facilitate secure remote printing in multiple networks and operating systems Control of print driver assignment Remove complexity of installing printers Provide configurable, customizable user experience Command Line Utilities Login Script Automated scripts (VBScripts) NAL Scripts ZENworks® ZFD version 4 integration HTML/Java based web pages Virtual Office Portal I would like to have some effect with this slide (administrative) and the next slide (user). You can see a one to one relationship between the administrative value and how it equates to a end user value. Some type of animation ??? Note on auditing: Track amount of printing to compare printing behavior to prescribed duty cycles for printers. Track printing behaviors of users to see if “business” related. Example. Tracked 1 individual printing 1200 copies of a Christmas letter on a color printer..I would like to have some effect with this slide (administrative) and the next slide (user).
