Printshop Management

The Printshop Management module records actual times for labour and material costs against jobs. This information can be entered from timesheets or from job bags, or can be received electronically via computers on the shop floor or via JDF from press control software. Reports are available for: machine productivity to highlight downtime; employee productivity; and on a job by job basis to compare estimated costs to actuals. This module also allows you to track the whereabouts of each job in the factory. next


“Printcost has helped us make remarkable changes in the way CanPrint was run. With the help of Printcost, the company has reduced its overheads and increased production.
There used to be 98 staff here, which we reduced to 62 five years ago. Now we’ve grown to 160 staff and our revenue has expanded ten fold. Printcost has played a huge role in our success.
The staff are also very happy with Printcost – they were using another system which cost a fortune. Now, with Printcost, they can quote a lot faster and more competitively.”
