**MerrionComputin** · Jun 4th, 2003, 05:04 PM

Anybody think of a clever and interesting name of a printer monitoring application?

**crptcblade** · Jun 4th, 2003, 06:25 PM

Microsoft Word?

**MartinLiss** · Jun 4th, 2003, 07:26 PM

Gutenberg

**MartinLiss** · Jun 4th, 2003, 07:30 PM

Johannes doesn't sound very much like software for some reason.

**crptcblade** · Jun 4th, 2003, 08:52 PM

Sounds more like a fabric store.

**MartinLiss** · Jun 4th, 2003, 08:58 PM

PrintSpy but maybe the folks at XMLSpy will be upset.

PrintMon ?

**Merrion** · Jun 5th, 2003, 05:51 AM

PrintMon already exists - with the snappy advertising quote:

It can commendably anti- waster of print paper and decrease the consume of printer ,can help you calculate the cost of every employee ...

What I am looking at is more like outlook rules wizard - but triggered by printer events rather than incoming emails...

**fungi** · Jun 5th, 2003, 08:17 AM

How about Spoolie... Kinda like our pal Clippie in MS Office

**Merrion** · Jun 5th, 2003, 08:48 AM

"The spool rule tool"

**kleinma** · Jun 5th, 2003, 08:54 AM

hahaha

but ya know in all seriousness... PrintWatch isn't a bad name.. as most of the other common names have all been taken

**Merrion** · Jun 9th, 2003, 08:19 AM

Every combination of two or three English words has been taken - including PrintWatch. Current working title is Sesheta which is the name of the Egyptian goddess of writing and measurement...although not a lot of people know that

**venerable bede** · Jun 9th, 2003, 08:24 AM

How about :

Pork Sword or maybe
Saxon Sausage or maybe
Spunk Trumpet!!

how about
"Your employees are printing PORN, monitor that s|-|1T."

Or

"Your employees are printing their resumes...so they can get a better job and leave this s|-|1T Hole...Monitor the experience they're lying about."

Or

"Paper ain't cheap you bastards...Keep your employees from wasting your corporate printing budget...monitor that s|-|1T"

Or

"Tired of your employees ****ing off all day, printing porn, chain letters, their resumes, their kids school lunch schedules, jokes from other office idiots...then get this ****in' software that not only monitors what those son-of-a-bitchin bastards are printing, but also sends them an instant message informing them if they keep doing that ****...they'll be going home missing a few fingers and toes...just enough to cover the costs of what they have wasted!"
