Spooling, Security, Output and Input Features

ExcelliPrint gives you additional iSeries security and input features. ExcelliPrint's features are designed to save you time and money, simplify your printing processes, protect your IPDS data, and give you more control of your IPDS print environment.

Browser-based interface


Platform-independent browser allows simple, efficient administration from ANY authorized computer. All you need is a browser for easy local and remote administration; quickly and easily view your log, setup, printers, and more. Make changes to your devices and jobs within your existing Web browser. ExcelliPrint can begin printing and saving IPDS documents within minutes.

IPDS Watermarks / Graphical Overlays


ExcelliPrint supports applying PC Graphical Overlays to IPDS spool files in PDF Format. These documents can be viewed and/or printed to PC printers. This eliminates the task of having to build many different graphical overlays and uploading them to the iSeries or mainframe. This function narrows the bandwidth used for printing and greatly enhances printing performance. More information on IPDS graphical overlays.

Secure Web interface

The application uses a secure Web interface that supports SSL and offers role-based administration. ExcelliPrint's embedded Web server supports SSL and does not require Apache or IIS to be installed. Because we use SSL, sensitive information remains protected.

Support for Multiple Output Destinations


ExcelliPrint supports multiple output destinations. You can now replace all of your existing IPDS printers with lower-cost Windows-based printers. Of course, ExcelliPrint can also save IPDS print jobs to disk in various standard formats including PDF and TIFF. Whether you are redirecting IPDS documents to printers or folders, ExcelliPrint provides centralized print job management. (ExcelliPrint Standard allows output to multiple PCL printers only)

Multiple Simultaneous Connections

Unlike other IPDS solutions, ExcelliPrint accepts data on multiple connections on a single port without delays and supports multiple ports. As a result, you can consolidate multiple IPDS printers with minimal server-side modifications.

System tray utility

A system tray utility provides quick access to advanced settings. You can access advanced settings such as stopping and starting the ExcelliPrint service, changing the interface's port number, and enabling secure access to the interface through SSL. The tray icon also indicates the status of the ExcelliPrint service.

Runs as a Windows service

The service receives print jobs without requiring a Windows user to be logged in to the computer where ExcelliPrint is running.

Role-based administration

Role-based administration allows fine control of ExcelliPrint settings and functions. ExcelliPrint provides different levels of administrative privilege to fit your company's security needs.
