o multivendor ...
OpenSpool will be ported completely to SUN O.S. (4.1.1).
Consequently, OpenSpool will run even in homogeneous SUN (only)
environments using SPARCstations as master. Any HP-UX and SUN O.S.
combinations are possible. CPL date for version A.02.00 is June 1;
shipments to follow in August On the HP-UX side the version A.02.00
will require HP-UX 8.x or 9.x for the master.
o entry price ...
The new product structure that comes with A.02.00 offers higher
granularity and flexibility, particularly fo price-sensitive
customers. A modular, conservative growth is possible, yet offering
the full OpenSpool capabilities at every stage. New evaluation copies
(opt. AGZ) which are valid for 3 months will also cover SUN
environments. Site licenses incl. Series 800 multi-user systems as
well as country company licenses are available.
o PC integration ...
In addition to a PC integration via Microsoft's LM/X the integration
of NOVELL PC networks running Netware/9000 is possible starting
immediately.
o 4 languages ...
OpenSpool is currently shipping in a U.S. English, German and Spanish
language version. A 16-bit Kanji version for the Japanese market is
close to release with first shipments expected in August. One of
OpenSpool's Japanese reference customers - Fuji Bank - has so far
accepted the U.S. English version in appreciation of the many other
OpenSpool capabilities ...
o Palladium technology ...
OpenSpool is currently based on MIT's Palladium version 1, the
outcome of a joint cooperation between IBM, DEC, HP and MIT. (Athena
project) As part of OSF's DME RFT a later version (2) of Palladium
was submitted by MIT which became selected as the DME print services
technology. HP is committed to OSF, the DME technology and
consequently to Palladium version 2 as part of OpenSpool's future
evolution. Currently OpenSpool represents the only shipping print
management solution on the market using Palladium technology !
