HP Launches 75-PPM A3 MFP and More

New offerings make digital capture more accessible; new scanners and MFPs deliver speed, efficiency
PALO ALTO, Calif., December 3, 2015 — HP Inc. today announced new solutions designed to make it easier and less expensive for customers to deploy digital capture, as well as new scanners and MFPs that provide faster scanning and printing.

“Converting paper into digital files helps businesses lower costs and operate more efficiently,” said Edmund Wingate, vice president & general manager, JetAdvantage Solutions, HP. “HP is working to eliminate the barriers of cost and complexity so more customers can deploy and benefit from digital capture.”
New JetAdvantage Solutions
HP has updated its JetAdvantage solution portfolio with new offerings that make it simpler and less expensive to deploy scanner and MFP-based digital capture. Rather than invest in a complex, extensively featured solution, the new HP offerings enable customers to deploy faster with less upfront investment. The new HP JetAdvantage solution offerings include:

-HP Scan Configuration Service provides template-based scan flows for use with HP Embedded Capture. HP has also introduced templates for healthcare and financial services, with additional industry templates to follow. These templates enable set up of repeatable digital capture processes that support common business functions for these industries. For healthcare, the supported processes are patient admission and patient discharge. The financial services template supports processes for loan application and account opening. The HP Scan Configuration Service leverages predefined templates to help reduce deployment time significantly for implementing scan flows and lower the cost for deploying custom scan flows, with pricing set at a one-time fee of $25 per device when bundled with the purchase and installation of HP Embedded Capture.

-HP Capture and Route is now available through a one button implementation on HP Enterprise MFPs and Digital Senders. For customers that only need to deploy a single process to digitally capture and manage paper documents, this option enables a simple, modular deployment, along with pricing flexibility. Businesses get the flexibility to start small, implementing a single process and add additional processes over time as needed.

New Scanners Enable Faster Digitalization
HP is further helping customers boost office productivity by making the process of scanning and converting paper documents more efficient with three new HP ScanJet devices that deliver faster scanning speeds.
  • For small and medium businesses with general office scanning needs, the HP ScanJet Pro 2500f1 and the HP ScanJet Pro 3500f1 PC-connected flatbed scanners with automatic document feeders provide single pass duplex scanning and scan to cloud capabilities. The HP ScanJet Pro 2500fn1 can scan up to 40 images per minute and the HP ScanJet Pro 3500fn1 can scan up to 50 images per minute.1
  • For small and medium businesses and enterprise departments in need of a scanner with network connectivity, HP is announcing the HP ScanJet Pro 4500fn1, a flatbed scanner with an ADF that includes on-device sending and scanning, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi direct connectivity, and single pass duplex scanning of up to 60 images per minute. This scanner is available beginning Jan. 7.2
  • To help further enhance productivity for converting paper documents into digital files, HP will deliver the HP JetAdvantage Capture app, which makes it easy to capture, store and route digital files from a mobile device. The app also supports using mobile devices to initiate scanning and receive scanned documents from Wi-Fi-enabled HP MFPs and scanners, such as the HP ScanJet Pro 4500fn1. This app is available beginning Jan. 7.  New MFPs deliver high volumes and fast speeds
    HP is expanding its A3 portfolio, introducing two new MFPs for managed print services customers in need of high-volume imaging and printing. The HP MFP S965dn and HP MFP S975dn are designed to support high volume document workflows and light production printing while saving up to 30 percent on printing costs.3 The HP MFP S965dn prints up to 65 pages a minute and the HP MFP S975dn prints up to 75 pages a minute, and both devices can scan up to 200 images per minute with single pass dual sided scanning.

Canon signs global partnership with Volkswagen for managed print services

Canon signs global partnership with Volkswagen for managed print services

 
May 14, 2014
Canon Inc.
TOKYO, May 14, 2014-Canon Inc. announced today that the Company has signed a global service agreement with German automobile manufacturer Volkswagen AG for the provision of multifunction office systems and solutions. Over the next few years, Canon will serve as a global partner to Volkswagen, providing managed print services through Canon multifunction office systems and solutions to Volkswagen group operating bases worldwide.



Through the comprehensive agreement, Canon will deliver Canon multifunction office systems and laser printers to global Volkswagen group offices and factories and provide assorted solutions and services. About the partnership, Mr. Andreas Wiedemann, Head of Printing Service Governance, Volkswagen AG, said, "VW are very pleased to be working with Canon for the supply and management of our printing requirements across our sites globally."
Enabling Canon to win this major account was its advanced technological capabilities and highly reliable equipment, which make possible the same solutions in any region around the world, as well as the new development of applications tailored to meet unique customer needs. Another factor contributing to Canon's win was the Company's proactive initiatives aimed at protecting the environment, including efforts to develop products that deliver high environmental performance.
In recent years, as business machine suppliers have had to satisfy the increasing office equipment demands of global corporate customers, the ability of these suppliers to provide unified services and information security that meet international standards, along with centralized purchasing, have gained in importance as selection criteria. Additionally, social contribution activities and other corporate social responsibilities have also been attracting increased attention, with companies choosing their suppliers based not only on product performance, but also the corporate bearing and initiatives of the supplying company.

In 2004, Canon launched the Global Account Management project as a dedicated organization within the Company tasked with responding to the business machine needs of customers with global business operations. In January this year, Canon renamed the organization the Canon Global Services Division and has focused on enhancing the Division's service offerings, including the launching of a dedicated website. The website, accessible in some 23 countries worldwide, highlights the benefits of Canon Global Services and will be updated with the latest pertinent information.
Canon will continue its efforts to provide customers with multifunction office systems and solutions tailored to meet the ever-evolving needs of the modern workplace.

MFP Security Issues

MFP Security Issues


You may have smart-card access securing the entrance to your building, encrypted network login, and an IP filter protecting access to the network, but do you have adequate safeguards when it comes to managing information flowing in and out of your company via your scanners and MFPs?
One of the issues surrounding MFP scan-to-email systems is the disassociation of e-mail communication from the core user’s e-mail log. By integrating directly via Exchange or Notes, a company will route e-mails through the MFP, but the log is recorded against the user's e-mail account, as if they had sent the email from their desktop.
Even more important is the fact that attachments recorded with the email log do not always come into play with MFP scan-to-email routed directly through the SMTP mail server.

Thus, without integrating through Exchange or Notes, even if the Chief Security Office (CSO) knew that confidential information had been leaked via a scan-to-email route, he or she would have no means of identifying the culprit.


The first step to limiting this security risk is to force authentication on all communication and scanning devices, thus creating an audit trail. The process is simple, in essence, requiring the administrator to set up a capture phase, a processing phase, and a route. The capture phase is the MFP or scanner. The destination route can be the e-mail delivery system, FTP folder, desktop location, etc.
Administrators can set up all scanning workflows to follow a set procedure, such as:
User authenticates at the device, instantly starting the audit trail.
Scanning is carried out.
Image is fed into an OCR application for conversion into a searchable text format. The searchable file is passed to a customized program that performs a security content filter/sweep looking for “hot” words, codes, names, etc. If no “hot” words are detected, the data continues on its way to its final destination.
