A new tool kit from PaperCut is set to unlock growth opportunities for its channel partners, by providing them with the solutions and support needed to resolve the print crisis created by the increasing number of ARM64-powered laptops. Working in conjunction with PaperCut’s established cloud and on-prem solutions, the tool kit, which comprises several high-impact sales assets, makes it easier for PaperCut’s partners to identify, pitch and sell the most appropriate solution relative to each customer’s print environment and needs.
ARM64 is a completely different processor design. Therefore, many companies and educational institutions planning to roll out the new wave of ARM64 consumer hardware – or who already have users with ARM64 laptops – struggle to get their existing printers to work with ARM64-equipped client devices.
PaperCut resolves this issue simply, using software that provides customers with an at-a-glance single pane of glass solution for deploying print queues to Windows-powered ARM devices and MacBooks. Cloud-based PaperCut Hive offers Print Queue Deployment, and on-premise PaperCut MF offers Print Deploy; both are easy ways to deploy a printer driver that works on traditional x64 laptops, ARM64 and Apple Silicon devices.
The system administrator uses the PaperCut admin console to manage printer drivers across different client architectures, which avoids manual administrative workarounds. PaperCut’s client software identifies the end-user client’s architecture and automatically deploys and installs a compatible printer driver. This provides sysadmins with a seamless printer driver deployment experience when administering a mixed fleet of end-user computer architectures.
