With the goal of expanding our operating system coverage, we developed the NDD Print Agent for macOS. This has allowed us to extend our solution to a larger number of users, keeping pace with the growing use of this operating system
What has changed in the macOS version?
Visually, there have been no significant changes. Users who have already used the NDD Print Agent module for Windows will find a very similar solution in the macOS version.
Below, we present the NDD Print Agent for macOS, as well as the features that are not yet available in this version:
What the NDD Print Agent Does
-
Print Job Accounting: Records and tracks all print jobs, collecting detailed information such as document name, number of pages, color or black-and-white usage, date, hour, and other relevant data.
-
User Interface: Facilitates interaction by applying quotas, usage policies, and/or authentication, when configured.
-
Job Hold: Allows documents to be held on the user’s computer and printed only after authentication and release at compatible terminals.
