Press Release Summary: Print Manager Plus 2008 includes a sophisticated print
tracking system which allows law firms to accurately bill back their printing costs
to clients with ease

Press Release Body: Clearwater, Florida and London, UK: The just-released software,
Print Manager Plus 2008 for law firms includes features to help recession proof law
firms and improve billing practices and income. The entire time-consuming process
of manually recording all printing done of behalf of clients, attributing each print
job to the correct client and working out the respective costs to be billed to each
is now an integral part of Print Manager Plus 2008. No expensive hardware or
training is needed with this pure software solution.

The software allows for the client name, account name or matter codes to be billed
back to a central database each time a user within the law firm prints from their
workstation. It then keeps track of all print job characteristics such as date and
time printed, username, document title, number of pages, number of copies, duplex,
NUp, and the cost of the print job.

"PMP even allows legal firms to add a margin to the actual cost of each print job,
either as a fixed Dollar (or other currency) amount or as a percentage," says Danny
Byrnes, VP of Software Shelf International. "They had to use a paper logbook and try
to work it all out in a spreadsheet. Inevitably, many print jobs slipped through the
net and were never billed back to the client. Thanks to Print Manager Plus, that's
now impossible and it also saves them hours of admin, paying for itself within a
very short space of time!"

Print Manager Plus is fully transparent and almost indistinguishable from Windows
itself. It is very easy to use and requires no changes to the existing network
configuration. It works with all makes of printer and on any operating system,
running off Windows Server or Workstation. It is also fully scalable with flexible
licensing available from SOHO (Small Office/Home Office), to the Small Business
Edition, right up to the full version, so it is, therefore, suitable for any size of
law firm.

With over 150 pre-made in-built reports, graphs and statements, billing back to the
clients of law firms has never been easier to administer and audit.
