RELIABLE PROCESSES, SECURE DATA.
steadyPRINT strengthens business-critical printing and output processes in critical care settings – offering high availability, security and relief for IT. Automated printer assignments, standardized workflows, resilient infrastructure, and the protection of sensitive patient data help facilities efficiently meet requirements related to KRITIS, NIS-2, and compliance.
Safe care starts with reliable processes!
Printing and output processes are part of the business-critical IT services in the healthcare sector. If the printing infrastructure fails, processes – from patient admission to the ward and all the way to the operating room – come to a standstill, with direct consequences for patient care and operational stability.
With the steadyPRINT MED Edition – developed specifically for the healthcare sector – facilities can ensure that their printing processes are highly available, scalable, and compliant with data protection regulations. Print Security Services, load balancing, and redundant print server, printer, and print flow concepts enhance availability and operational resilience while supporting requirements related to KRITIS and NIS-2.
Automatic printer assignments and digitally controlled processes reduce the workload on employees, increase process reliability, and simultaneously reduce administrative effort in complex HIS and specialized application environments.
Sensitive patient data remains protected at multiple levels.
Work efficiently — in every area.
In everyday hospital life, printing simply has to work — no matter where staff members are working at any given moment. steadyPRINT automatically detects the location and assigns the appropriate printer to doctors, nurses, and administrative teams in the background.
This ensures that documents end up where they’re needed — without manual selection, repeated logins and logouts, or unnecessary interruptions. At the same time, users benefit from shorter login times — on average 30% faster than when using GPOs.
With steadyPRINT workflows, recurring tasks can be automated — such as forwarding, backup scenarios, process-dependent output, or multi-step document routines. This reduces the need for manual intervention, prevents errors, and lightens the workload for teams in their day-to-day hospital operations.
If a printer is unavailable, the system automatically switches to a designated backup printer. This reduces the need for follow-up inquiries to the IT department and helps ensure reliable care.
Location-based printing & workflows.
Centralized administration of the printing infrastructure.
Relieve IT. Operate more efficiently.
Complex printer management in HIS and specialized applications ties up valuable IT resources and creates unnecessary support costs. steadyPRINT shifts administration to a centralized management system and significantly reduces operational complexity.
With the steadyPRINT Center and the vName virtual printer concept, printer assignments are managed centrally rather than maintained individually in separate line-of-business applications. Adjustments can be implemented flexibly — even during operation—based on location or IP address.
Driverless printing solutions and standardized assignments further reduce complexity, simplify operations, and provide long-term relief for IT teams.
Self-service features assist users in their day-to-day hospital work and help further reduce the need for support.
This reduces administrative workload and support calls, increases process stability, and provides greater transparency and control.
High availability, performance, data security.
Security for processes that cannot fail.
In critical areas such as the central emergency room, printing and output processes must remain reliably available even under heavy workload or in the event of technical malfunctions.
Intelligent load balancing distributes print jobs evenly, improves performance, and reduces bottlenecks during operation. Automated steadyPRINT workflows allow you to control recurring processes based on rules — for example, for backup scenarios, defined forwarding, or process-dependent output.
If a system fails, defined redundancy and backup mechanisms kick in automatically — an important contribution to business continuity and care stability.
At the same time, steadyPRINT protects sensitive patient data through encrypted communication and SecurePrint features, which ensure that documents are printed only after authentication.
In this way, steadyPRINT combines reliability, process control, and data protection in a single solution — helping to meet KRITIS, NIS 2, and other compliance requirements.
Even during ERP system changes, print server migrations, or the modernization of the printing infrastructure, print logic, assignments, and standards can continue to be centrally managed with steadyPRINT. By decoupling line-of-business applications from print administration, existing processes can continue to be used, new server structures can be efficiently integrated, and printer connections can be flexibly adapted to new devices, locations, or requirements.
Centralized control, monitoring, and status information provide transparency regarding availability, utilization, and critical printing processes. IT teams can identify issues early, respond more quickly, and maintain control over business-critical output processes at all times.
Role-based administration, multi-admin management, and journaling further support governance, auditability, and secure operational processes in complex hospital environments.
Driverless printing solutions and standardized assignments reduce complexity and provide long-term relief for IT teams.
This reduces project risks, protects existing investments, and helps organizations develop their printing and output environments in a future-proof manner.
Future security and control for complex IT environments.
Trust through experience.
From reducing the burden on IT and ensuring stable hospital operations to supporting regulatory compliance: steadyPRINT delivers measurable added value in areas where availability and process reliability are critical.
