Multifunction Systems

Multifunction systems merge the power of a copier, printer, scanner and fax machine into one product. In fact, multifunction systems are 20-40% less expensive than the combined expenses of single function products while requiring significantly less floor space. They are today's answer for document creation.

In addition to saving money and floor space, multifunction systems streamline your office by permitting you to service and support fewer devices as well as supervise documents from a single location. Plus, we can deliver additional cost savings and increased efficiencies through our Managed Print Services. Read more on Managed Print services here.

The hallmark of our multifunction systems is that they combine four vital business tools into one device.

Printing

Multifunction systems allow for the printing of documents of varying sizes. Because multifunction devices are scalable, the volume that can be printed on these systems can also be scaled. The strongest benefits of multifunction systems over laser printers are lower costs and greater productivity. MFP’s also utilize the same print engine that you have grown to value in laser jet printers. Moreover, these systems also feature finishing options not typically available in ink-jet or laser printers such as stapling, booklet-making, and three-hole punch. Learn more...

Copying

In addition to printing and scanning color and black & white documents, all multifunction systems have the ability to copy. Using the latest digital copying technology, you can be certain that you will see the best quality reproduction with the ease of use you have come to demand. Most multifunction systems now offer advanced features such as scan-one–print-many functionality, job pre-scan, and increased ability to maximize the resolution quality from your color originals.

Scanning

Scanning documents has become a necessity for all types of businesses. Businesses must have the capability to convert their paper-based information into a readily transferable medium. Furthermore, with the extensive use of color documents in our businesses today, faxing a document often will not work. With a multifunction system, generating an electronic document from paper-based information has never been easier… in color or black and white.

One of the characteristics of a multifunction system is its capability to scan to various locations. Some of these locations include email, files, OCR (optical character recognition), and electronic document management, in addition to many others. The ability to scan and save a document as a PDF, TIFF or mTIFF can provide flexibility in how you communicate with your documents. Learn more...

Faxing

It may be assumed that the need for faxing will decrease as the ability to scan to email rises. Although this may be true in the years to come, fax volumes are currently increasing as businesses attempt to continue to provide technologies their customers require. Multifunction systems offer a multitude of options for faxing documents that a traditional fax machine may not provide. Options such as inbound fax routing, desktop faxing and faxing directly to your electronic document management system can create an increased level of productivity that positively affects your bottom line.

What About Color?

Today’s world performs in color. Users that design content on their color monitors expect it to be viewed as they see it, increasing the need for color paper and electronic documents. Our multifunction systems offer advanced color features that allow for greater use of what color was meant for.

Studies have shown that as much as 60% of consumers decide to purchase a new product based on its color rather than quality, workmanship or price guarantee. It is also important to understand that a person will respond to and evaluate most products in less than 60 seconds. Therefore, presentation is essential to the success or failure of any printed document, whether that document is for internal use or for external marketing.
