Scan

In just a few years, network scanning has moved from a

luxury item to one of the most important functions on many

MFPs. Virtually all MFPs offer standard or optional network

scanning. Document feeder design is now a major focus

with users looking for higher speed, low resolution capa-

bilities, more versatile scan functions, and even colour

scanning on devices only equipped with monochrome

marking engines.

Address Book Integration

Integration into central corporate address books on LDAP or NT servers

is the de facto standard today, as is the ability to force-populate outgoing

email with sender information through an enforced login process. This way,

outgoing communications from the remote MFP can be traced back to the

user and audited for compliance purposes.

Destinations

Scan-to destinations include email, SMB (Windows desktop locations),

FTP, and Internet fax. In some instances, the scan goes directly to the

hard drive; an email is sent to the recipient with a URL link so they can

quickly download the scan file from the device hard drive location. A grow-

ing number of devices are starting to include external media ports to allow

scanning directly to USB memory sticks or digital camera SD chips. BERTL

expects this to be commonplace over the next year.

Security

Security is another hot point in scanning. Several devices now include the

capability to send scan messages using encrypted PDF or other secure

transfer medium. This can be an important factor in many industries sensi-

tive to data theft or misuse.

Integration with Third-Party Applications

The big buzz in the MFP industry is the move toward open architecture,

where the firmware backbone of the device is based on an industry stan-

dard like Java or .NET rather than a proprietary systems. This opens great

opportunities for far greater MFP integration with other software applica-

tions through third-party applications created with software developer kits

(SDK).

Through these partnerships, scanning from the MFP can take on a new

life, doing more than just routing files from the MFP to an email or folder.

Now, information can be directed into a sophisticated workflow complete

with metadata, billing information, image enhancement, and other func-

tions, all from the initial scanning action rather than the multi-stage process

used previously.

Currently, there is great differentiation in the field of scanning as manu-

facturers continue to develop this aspect of the device. Watch for more

image enhancement and workflow capabilities to become commonplace as

scanning continues to pick up the pace as a dominant factor.
