Ease-of-Use and Management

Section 1: Evaluating Workgroup

Color Multifunction Printers

Look for fully integrated functions that work together to create more value than the sum of their parts. Are the functions easy to learn? Is the user interface consistent from function to function? Do the network features give users full access to the power of your network? Does the device include additional software to take full advantage of digital documents? Is the multifunction printer easy for your IT organiza- tion to manage as part of its infrastructure, whether a single device or an entire fleet?
