Scan

BACKGROUND

In just a few years, network scanning has changed from being a “luxury” function to one that is virtually essential.

Indeed, today, nearly all MFPs provide standard or optional network scanning, including scan-to-e-mail. This makes document-feeder design even more critical, with users looking for document feeders with higher feeding speeds, low–resolution capabilities, as well as for MFPs with more versatile scanning, and color-scanning capability.

Address Book Integration

MFPs’ ability to integrate their scanning addresses book with central corporate address book located on LDAP or Microsoft Windows NT network servers is the current de facto standard. The ability to force-populate outgoing e- mail from the MFP with sender information through an enforced login process is also required (i.e., senders must enter their network password before they can use the MFP’s scan-to-e-mail).

Destinations

Most MFPs’ network-scanning capabilities include the ability to scan-and-send to e-mail addresses, SMB destinations (Windows desktop locations), FTP (File Transfer Protocol) sites, and Internet fax destinations. In some instances, the scanned document goes directly to the MFP’s hard drive, and an e-mail is sent to the recipient with a URL link. By navigating to the URL link, the recipient can quickly access the scanned file from the device’s hard drive. Also of note is that a growing number of devices are beginning to include external media ports to allow users to scan and send documents to USB flash memory devices and digital-camera SD chips. We expect this to become more common over the next year.

Security

Security is another critical aspect of scanning. Several MFPs now include the ability to send scanned messages using encrypted PFD or other secure-transfer formats. This is an important capability in industries and sectors where data must be kept secure and confidential. Most devices also support network authentication, so that users must log into their device (usually with their network password) before they scan.

Integration with Third-Party Applications

The big buzz in the office digital-imaging industry is the move toward open architecture, with the MFP’s firmware backbone based on an industry standard such as Java or

.NET rather than on a proprietary system.
