Vasion Output
Last Updated: April 07, 2026
Vasion Output provides organizations the modern tools and automation necessary to ensure output from any system gets to where it needs to go, in the format it needs to be in. Vasion Output is licensed per print queue. With the Vasion platform, you can unify end user print and your large-scale applications or high-volume printing for centralized management.
Benefits
- Centralization of print management. Vasion Output unifies the management of front-end workstation printing with back-end, large-scale application printing.
- Stabilization of the print environment to ensure critical business processes are seamlessly supported and uninterrupted.
- Adaptability and flexibility to work with legacy mainframe and similar systems and ensure documents are delivered as expected.
How Vasion Output Works
We have three different ways that we can receive print jobs or documents from our customers.
- LPD service. LPD and LPR are the print protocols used.
- Via the API print service The API Service extends the capabilities of Vasion Output to web-based applications that aren’t natively equipped to communicate via typical print protocols. The API Service can connect to both cloud and on-premise applications.
- Via the IPP / IPPS protocol.
We first look inside of the print data that we've received to try to find a user that is matches a user in Vasion Print. Then we tie that print job to that particular user. Once that's done, the print job it is going to benefit from the user identification in the Vasion Print solution, ranging from secure release or reporting or any other similar features.
We then perform an analysis of the data to determine the attributes of the file, and then make a decision on what's going to happen to that file in the most basic sense. We can send a file directly to a printer and have it printed, or we could use secure release printing, which holds the print job until the user walks up and releases that job using a badge, QR code, or other supported release mechanism.
Vasion Output supports connections to SAP's on-premises and private cloud version editions.

Additional Functionality
Here are some additional features that are available with Vasion Output.
High Availability
In the modern business landscape, the reliability and uninterrupted availability of Vasion Output services are paramount. These services, which handle the critical flow of documents and outputs from customer applications, are the backbone of many business processes. High Availability (HA) in Vasion Output is not just a feature—it's a necessity. Ensuring that these services are always on and accessible is crucial for maintaining business continuity, minimizing downtime, and supporting the seamless execution of customer processes.

Confirmed Delivery
Confirmed Delivery provides granular status monitoring of print jobs sent to a printer that supports the PJL USTATUS commands. It allows printers to communicate back to Vasion Output what's happening when a job is printed, and helps pinpoint precisely where printing stopped and identify potential issues, eliminating confusion and guesswork based on limited information from the printer.

SAP Integration
Vasion’s new SAP Integration improves how print jobs are managed from SAP by providing real-time status updates and full visibility into print activity. Unlike the legacy LPR method (Access Method U), which only confirms data receipt, this certified integration uses Access Method Q to return job status—success or failure—directly to SAP. It simplifies setup and troubleshooting, supports both SAP Public and Private Cloud, and gives teams the tools to ensure efficient, compliant printing.

Vasion Output Console
The Output Console introduces tools for administrators to monitor the flow of print jobs through their output automation environment and manage the printers. The print job and printer status monitoring is only applicable to printing done through an Vasion Output service.
The Output Console is only available for customers who have migrated to the unified login experience, as it requires additional functions only available with Vasion Automate.
