About PrinterTux

PrinterTux is a print management solution that enables intelligent print control and monitoring. It supports secure release printing via RFID cards and integrates with the ControlPrint software to track usage and reduce printing costs.

PrinterTux, developed by HE Soluções, is a specialized print management solution designed to provide organizations with granular control over their printing environments. By integrating with the ControlPrint software, it offers a robust suite of tools for monitoring print volume, enforcing quotas, and reducing overall printing costs. A key capability is the 'Siga-me' (Follow-me) module, which allows for secure print release via RFID proximity cards, making it particularly useful for organizations that need to secure sensitive documents or manage shared printer fleets without native panel support. The system is compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux, offering flexibility for diverse IT infrastructures. While the solution provides comprehensive reporting and cost-tracking features, it is primarily targeted at businesses looking to optimize their print infrastructure and minimize waste. Support is provided through documentation, email, and direct contact with the vendor, and the company offers a 15-day trial for evaluation.
