Brazil: Competitive Differentiation and Strategic Positioning
In Brazil, the compatibility between the Pantum Elite Pro Series and the NDD Print 360 is fully certified and approved, representing an important competitive differentiator in the local market. The combination of a global hardware brand with a Brazilian technology company that has strong international presence enables the delivery of a mature, scalable solution aligned with governance, information security, operational efficiency, and ESG requirements.
This positioning reinforces the value proposition of Pantum and NDD among channels, partners, and corporate customers in Brazil, elevating Managed Print Services offerings and expanding adoption opportunities in mid- and large-scale projects.
Print Intelligence
Designed for demanding corporate environments, the Elite Pro Series delivers robust performance, featuring high print speeds, automatic duplex printing, Wi-Fi connectivity on compatible models, large paper capacity, high-yield consumables, and advanced security features. These capabilities ensure more efficient workflows, optimized operational costs, and a solid foundation for secure and sustainable print management.
When integrated with the NDD Print 360, Elite Pro Series devices evolve into a fully orchestrated ecosystem, enabling centralized device control, enhanced cost visibility, and governance over information usage.
Cloud Management and IT Simplification
Through the seamless compatibility between the solutions, print quotas, audits, and usage policies can be centrally managed in the cloud through a single, intuitive dashboard. This enables IT teams to monitor, configure, and control all printing devices in a streamlined manner, reducing operational effort and freeing up time for more strategic initiatives.
Precise Cost Control and Resource Optimization
In response to the growing need for efficiency aligned with sustainability, the Elite Pro Series also integrates with the NDD Print 360 solution for disciplined print resource management. Mandatory savings rules can be applied to automatically convert print jobs to duplex or monochrome output, reducing paper and consumable usage without manual intervention.
In addition, print quotas can be defined by user, department, device, or project, with automatic alerts or job blocking when page, cost, or color usage limits are reached. These measures help prevent waste, reduce total cost of ownership (TCO), and promote more efficient print management across the organization.
Enhanced Security and Information Protection
The Elite Pro Series already includes native security and access control features. With NDD Print 360, protection against potential threats is further enhanced: through the secure print release functionality, documents are only released after user authentication at the device, with multiple options available — proximity card, PIN, or username and password — including the possibility of integration with the corporate domain.
In addition, the solution incorporates traceability mechanisms through watermarking, embedding identifiable codes containing user, timestamp, and device information. This enables immediate detection of potential data leaks and precise identification of the origin of confidential documents.
Mobility, Flexibility, and Improved User Experience
The partnership also enables more modern and flexible workstyles by supporting mobile and wireless printing. The Elite Pro Series is compatible with multiple mobile applications, including Pantum’s proprietary mobile app (Android/iOS), giving users one-tap access to printer capabilities for print-and-collect convenience—meeting the needs of different user profiles.
With the reinforcement of NDD Print 360, the mobility is further enhanced. Smartphone users can easily send and release print jobs through the NDD mobile app, ensuring both fast and secure printing, while laptop users benefit from driverless email printng, which allows users to print the content and attachments of a email by sending them to a previously configured email address.
In addiction, with the NDDPrint Releaser Generic Driver, “follow‑me printing” becomes possible, allowing users to choose the nearest printer for job release, which significantly improves productivity and flexibility in corporate environments.
Sustainability, Environmental Insights, and Waste Reduction
Sustainability is a central pillar of this partnership. Pantum has long been committed to sustainable development—adopting eco‑friendly materials, continuously innovating to improve product durability, and achieving an AA ESG rating from MSCI in 2025. The collaboration with NDD further reflects Pantum’s dedication to responsible printing. The NDD Print 360 provides intuitive dashboards displaying carbon footprint, energy consumption, and water usage indicators, supporting corporate environmental responsibility initiatives and increasing employee awareness.
The system also automatically removes expired or unclaimed print jobs, reducing paper and toner waste. As a result, print management incorporates sustainability into daily operations, going beyond simple cost reduction.
