Whether for printing from classic PCs, mobile devices, thin clients, virtual desktops or from the cloud: Over 25,000 companies of all industries and sizes optimise their printing infrastructure and increase their productivity with ThinPrint.

Protected against downtime thanks to high availability

Since the elimination of the print server clusters with Windows Server 2012, fail-safe printing can only be achieved with an appropriate print management solution. ThinPrint offers significant high availability not only for print servers, but also for printing devices. In addition, load distribution on the server and client side and server maintenance during operation are uncomplicated. 

Secure printing - more up-to-date than ever

On May 25, 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation became binding. This resulted in numerous obligations for companies and authorities with regard to the processing of personal data. When it comes to printing, ThinPrint and Brother offer effective protection not only up to, but even into the printer. 

Performance at the highest level

Brother and ThinPrint generate real added value through customer-specific solutions. With the flexible BSI interface, device functions can be easily adapted and then made available to the printer fleet. This leads to a noticeable saving in costs and time. Together with ThinPrint, the printing environment is also optimised in terms of software and a user-friendly interface is created. The advantages are obvious: efficiency and less support.
