Multifunctional devices still remain one of the biggest driving forces behind the output industry, and couple that with the continued decrease in colour laser printing we have, undoubtedly, a year of improved ROI to look forward to.
Although technology innovation is currently just more of the same, it is encouraging to note that most output players continue to drive down costs, offering their products at competitive price points with functionality to boot.
Indeed, printers are simply getting faster, offering more memory and basically doing a lot more than they used to.
So, looking at some of the major highlights for the next few months, HP definitely deserves some time in the spotlight. The company`s new MFP LaserJet 4345 series, for example, offers black and white printing of up to 45ppm and features a 50-sheet automatic document feeder that processes two-sided documents, thus eliminating the need to feed originals.
The range also allows for optimised productivity as the embedded send-to-e-mail function with optional HP Digital Sending Software (DSS) 4.0 facilitates document workflow by enabling documents to be sent to printers, network folders, and fax services including LAN fax, Internet fax and Windows 2000/XP fax services.
You can also configure the HP LaserJet 4345 to your exact needs. Create high-quality documents with a choice of advanced output options, including a stapler/stacker that can staple documents of up to 30 pages and stack up to 500 sheets.
Interestingly, you can also choose a 3-bin mailbox for separating print, copy and fax functions, assigning mailboxes for users, or stacking up to 700 sheets.
Other HP MFPs to definitely look twice at is the LaserJet 9040 and 9050 MFPs and the Colour LaserJet 9500 MFPs A3 - all brand new and optimised for your daily business needs and requirements.
With so much innovation coming from just one company it is, if anything, encouraging and healthy for the highly competitive local output industry out there.
