Output Rules Workflows

Output Rules is a Virtual Appliance Output tool that automates print and workflow behaviors according to predefined criteria. With this feature you can easily create and manage the routing of documents across your environment with rule-based automation, leading to increased efficiency, accuracy, and reliability in print and workflow tasks. Output Rules enhances control over all outputs and behaviors within a print environment, like routing all specific document types to a particular printer or rerouting a job in case of a device outage.

The benefits of Output Rules include:

  • Direct, granular control over where print jobs are going and how they're printed.
  • Protect business-critical processes with additional redundancy, high availability, and failovers to ensure seamless operations.
  • Automatic redirection during connectivity issues, printing specific job types.
  • Archiving digital copies of printed forms or records for auditing purposes.
  • Supports Virtual Appliance Output features, including API Cloud Link and the API Print Service.
