Sample: Metacode / DJDE Emulation

Up to now, the Xerox Metacode / LCDS printing format has forced users to employ Xerox printing systems exclusively. Emigration would only be possible by changing the software application, which would involve excessively high costs.

Mercury converts these printing data into standardised PCL / PDF data formats, allowing users to employ any compatible printing system, regardless of the manufacturer. At the same time, further data interfaces such as Internet or archiving systems are opened up by PDF.

Sample: XES Emulation

Up to now, the Xerox XES printing format has forced users to employ Xerox printing systems exclusively - yet the production of Xerox printing systems with XES emulation has already been discontinued.

With its XES emulation in accordance with PCL / PDF, Mercury represents a way of avoiding the high investment costs associated with making changes to the software. At the same time, users have the possibility of employing alternative compatible PCL / PDF printing systems. Likewise, further data interfaces such as Internet or archiving systems are opened up by PDF.

Sample: IPDS Emulation

IBM IPDS users are currently forced to employ original IBM printing systems, as these are not compatible with other system worlds such as standard PCL.

Mercury allows the IPDS printing data to be converted into a standard format PCL / PDF, thus making it possible to use all current printing systems. PCL data from a Windows Office world, as well as Host or AS400 IPDS data, can now simultaneously be printed out on any PCL / PDF printer. At the same time, all functionalities such as "page event" echoes are kept. In addition, all printing tasks, whether from an IPDS system or from the Office world, can be administered by Mercury in a standardised fashion.

Sample: Prescribe Emulation

Prescribe users are currently forced to employ original printing systems from Kyocera.

Mercury allows the Prescribe printing data to be converted into a standard format PCL / PDF, thus making it possible to use all current printing systems. Prescribe data from a Windows Office world can now simultaneously be printed out on any PCL / PDF printer. At the same time, further data interfaces such as Internet or archiving systems are opened up by PDF.
