Today’s copiers offer a wide variety of options, not only can you sort, staple stack etc. you can use these machines to print documents or even scan from them. This has opened up endless possibilities. You may not realize it but printing to your multifunctional device can save you a small fortune on supply costs. Most of you have probably purchased a small printer for home use and then the day comes when the printer tells you its low on ink. Of course you’re wondering why because you only printed a couple of hundred pages. You make your way to your nearest supply store and find the ink that fits your printer, that’s provided you can find it. Then comes the heart attack … how much? You realize that the ink you are about to buy costs more per ounce than gold. Here is where your copier comes in. Typically when you print to your multifunctional device it is about 8 to 10 times cheaper to accomplish the same task. This is due to lower supply costs. Some of the other benefits are the ability to sort and staple documents, duplex documents or even create booklets. Not to mention much higher output speed
As for scanning, the majority of new copiers have this capability embedded in the system. Generally there are a couple of ways to accomplish this. The first is scanning a document over the network directly in to a folder. You can scan to a single folder or to multiples directly from the copier console. This can be done via smb or even ftp, both are common network protocols. The second option is the ability to scan via email. In this case you can send a document in digital format directly to an email address. Both of these features give you the ability to not only store documents electronically but the ability to modify documents.
