Press Release Summary: Award-winning software allows schools and colleges to reduce
their printing by 50% or more


Press Release Body:
Clearwater, Florida and London, United Kingdom: Print Management Software firm
Software Shelf International, Inc. announced today, at the beginning of the new
academic year, a reminder to schools, colleges and universities that its print
monitoring and limiting software offers a workable way for them to substantially
reduce their operating costs. In these times of looming recession and financial
instability, tight cost control is the key to the future of any organisation. Print
Manager Plus 2008 Standard Academic Edition provides a practical and
environmentally-friendly way for educational establishments of all kinds to do just
that.

The award-winning software allows secondary schools, K12 schools, universities,
colleges and non-profit organizations to track, control, quota and restrict student
and staff printing across the network. Case studies have shown that this software
can reduce printing by 50% or more.

“It’s really easy to use and is 100% software based, so no additional hardware is
needed at all,” says Software Shelf CEO, William Feeley. “It runs on Windows Server
or Workstation NT/2000/XP/2008 and can track printing from any operating system, so
any school could install this software tomorrow and start reducing its paper and ink
costs immediately.”

The benefit the software provides schools and colleges is best expressed by its
customers themselves:

“We couldn’t afford technology upgrades for our school. After installing Print
Manager Plus we cut our printing costs in half - from £24,000 to around £12,000 and
are now able to afford upgrades.” — Kevin Bowker, The King’s Academy, Middlesbrough,
North Yorkshire, UK.

“Print Manager Plus gave us the ability to make students and teachers accountable
for what they print and how much. Users are now pausing before they print and with
the ability to set limits to print jobs, the 100-page books that were being sent are
a thing of the past. Print Manager Plus is a great product for taking back control
over spiralling print costs and saving the environment from wasteful printing.” —
Administrator, Wesley Chapel High School, Florida.

The product is also very ‘green’ in that it reduces paper wastage, thereby saving
trees, energy (in the production of paper and its distribution) and water; the
manufacturing of paper is a very thirsty process. Based of average paper savings per
client and the total number of its clients worldwide, it was recently calculated
that Print Manager Plus is responsible for saving 200,000 trees globally every
month!
