Eliminate costly, preprinted forms
Forms Card is an easy-to-use, electronic forms package that makes it possible to print forms
on demand. Forms Card maximises printer investment with the use of electronic forms.
Preprinted forms are expensive to produce, store and handle, plus they can quickly become
obsolete, forcing businesses to destroy and reprint them. Forms Card eliminates the need to
buy preprinted forms and cuts storage and handling costs. Forms are created and printed as
they are needed.
Additionally, forms can be updated with information such as new phone numbers, made
available instantly to users.
Forms Card has an easy-to-use design programme, Forms Composer to create forms.
Lexmark Forms Manager(1) allows downloading of the form to the printer’s flash or hard
disk memory option. Once the electronic form is designed and in the printer, data can be
sent directly from your host computer (mainframe, mid-range, PC, etc.) and Forms Card
will automatically merge the data with the correct form design and print the completed form.
High-quality forms quickly and efficiently.
Forms Card is one of the simplest way of integrating electronic forms into your workplace.
It works with any host or network system. Since it generally requires no changes to host
applications and as no server or host-based merge programme is necessary, you will find
the integration extremely smooth. What’s more, because forms are stored at the printer (and
merged there), network traffic is reduced and through put is improved.
