Digital sending overview

HP Digital Sending technology offers a fast, simple and reliable way to capture valuable information from paper-based documents and convert it to a digital format which can be further processed and routed to a number of different destinations.

Routing destinations include, but are not limited to, the following:

●Network folders

●E-mail

●FTP sites

●Fax

The digital file types available include, but are not limited to, the following:

●JPEG

●TIFF

●PDF

●PDF/A

Optical Character Recognition and Compression are also available offering a wide range of digital file types of varying sizes and quality that the user can select to meet their needs.

Additional data, or metadata, can also be specified and routed along with the scanned images as a method for enabling more complex workflows.

Digital Sending is available from most HP Multi-function Peripherals, the Digital Sender line of products and some HP Scanners. These products offer a wide range of Digital Sending capability "out of box" via the product firmware. This out of box functionality is referred to as embedded digital sending. What functions are available via embedded digital sending varies by product. See Table 1-1 Feature comparison on page 7 for more information.

The functionality of embedded digital sending can be extended with the server based HP Digital Sending Software (DSS) product. Some features DSS adds to embedded digital sending are shared address books, secure E-mail, a single point for e-mail routing and Optical Character Recognition.
