01732 75972 5 8 BULLETIN PAE Business adds ECI solutions to its portfolio PAE Business, a distributor of ECI’s Print Audit products, has expanded its portfolio to include all of ECI’s device management solutions as part of its managed print service offering. The solutions are available to PAE customers, along with their existing MPS tools, making PAE a single provider for a dealer’s MPS journey. ECI’s device management solutions identify and extract data from printers, copiers and multifunction devices - collecting vital device information which can be synchronised with the dealers’ ERP system in real time. This enables dealers to automate toner replenishment, remove the potential of human error through meter entry and ensure customers can track behaviour. Managing Director, Phil Madders, said: “PAE is delighted to extend the relationship we have with ECI. It is a very exciting development for us and means our solutions portfolio has expanded to include the three most widely used printer fleet device management tools in the world. “Add to that the other products in the portfolio, and the strength and resources of a major global corporation, and it's easy to understand why we are so excited about the opportunities this creates along with the greater choice of solutions for our customers.” www.paebusiness.com 10 We can buy your unused toners As a Managed Print Service provider, we understand how important it is to deliver the best value and performance to your customers.

The pandemic has caused huge disruption to the print industry, with some companies having been forced to close and furlough staff in order to comply with restrictions set out by the government. However, with high demand for print on packaging for critical products such as food, medicines and cleaning products, some print companies are busy turning around work at a fast rate. J&G Environmental has been supporting its many customers in these and other areas throughout the ongoing crisis, helping them recycle and responsibly manage waste from print production. The company has been carrying out all of its operations strictly in line with government requirements and advice, including practicing social distancing within its own offices, having staff wash and disinfect their hands regularly and having drivers wear masks for onsite collections. www.jg-environmental.com Exclusive Networks and Tintri team up Exclusive Networks has announced its pan-EMEA distribution agreement with Tintri, which covers the vendor’s entire portfolio of intelligent infrastructure solutions including VMstore, IntelliFlash and NexentaStor product families.
