Overview
Any large organization produces paper to manage processes and fulfill its goals. When the organization is as large and service-oriented as the government, paper-based data becomes a vital part of its deliverables.
Fortunately, LBM Systems’ UNIX, Linux, Windows and AS/400 laser forms, print queue management and output management software is used at many State government facilities in both the United States and Canada to reduce costs and streamline document-based processes.
Customer Quote and Examples
Dynamic bundling/grouping and autofailover: An Arizona state department uses AXIAR to collect, sort and bundle groups of documents based on scheduling parameters. The documents are then printed as a batch; AXIAR’s logging and autofailover capabilities verify and ensure print job delivery without operator intervention.
“It has been a great experience working with all the different staff you have at LBM Systems, they have all been very supportive and super fast to respond to our needs, it has been very refreshing…can you tell I don’t get this kind of support very often…it’s a shame but so many times we really don’t get the support we want or need…not so with LBM Systems you are all great!”

Laser forms and dynamic data formatting: A department of the Texas state government uses AXIAR to create license documentation using secure fonts. AXIAR is used to convert standard application text output to printer-ready, dynamically formatted unique license output. Documents created and formatted by AXIAR can be logged, imaged with watermarks and audited with AXIAR’s print-job logging capabilities.
Ensured print job delivery and cross-platform print queue management: The highway department of a Canadian state is tasked with managing infrastructure across a vast and forbidding environment. Using AXIAR, the department can manage remote printers from a single source and troubleshoot print problems without having to send out IT personnel to very remote locations. Mission-critical jobs can be re-routed in the event of printer failure without operator intervention, ensuring that print output is delivered in a timely manner.
Data conversions: A department in the Kansas state governments uses PCL2PDF to convert legacy output to easily-distributed PDF files for distribution and storage. By automating the process using PCL2PDF’s batch conversion capabilities, a single ‘print’ request creates and delivers multiple PDFs.
Batch document imaging for storage: Several departments in multiple states use AXIAR and PCL2PDF to automatically print and simultaneously create a PDF of official state communications. Rather than printing and then scanning, AXIAR and PCL2PDF create PDFs ‘on the fly’ and route them to pre-configured output object destinations. Since the PDF is a text-searchable and exact duplicate of the printed material, there are no scanning or conversion errors to remedy.
Cross-platform print queue management: A large department in the state of New York uses AXIAR Deliver to manage a network of geographically disparate printers that sit on a mixed UNIX/Windows network. Print-related issues are identified and managed from AXIAR’s single-screen interface and the need to dispatch IT personnel to resolve ‘lost’ print jobs is drastically reduced. In addition, AXIAR’s autofailover capabilities can be used to automatically deliver print output regardless of the availability of the originally-intended printer.
