Printer functions are checked by VSM to ensure the printer is providing the user consistent output and notifies the operator via email or smart phone if there is a problem.

Operators can multitask with peace of mind because VSM includes an email notification system to alert the operator to several pre-programmed messages including printer status, low ink, media end, and more.

The system is currently available on the VJ-1324, 1624, and 1608HS printers. New VSM-capable printers and smart phone remote access apps will be announced in the near future, the company says.
