Venture Computer, the sole Southern African distributor for Lexmark International, today announced that Lexmark had met all the necessary criteria to be named as a mySAP.com Global Technology Partner by SAP AG, Walldorf, Germany.
SAP`s mySAP.com Global Technology Partners are selected key technology vendors that work jointly with SAP to enhance the technological platform and to deliver first-class innovative solutions for mySAP.com E-Business Solutions like Customer Relationship Management, Supply Chain Management, Enterprise Portals and Industry Marketplaces.
"The mySAP.com e-business solutions allow our customers and business partners to work together successfully anytime, anywhere in the world," said Rudolf Munz, Senior Vice President of Development Platforms, SAP AG. "Lexmark provides an essential contribution to the international printing capabilities of mySAP.com. SAP and Lexmark`s joint development is based on the commitment to our customers to deliver documents from mySAP.com at the right time and place, in the right format and in any language."
"Our partnership confirms Lexmark`s commitment to provide the best support of SAP," says Paul Rooke, Lexmark vice president and president of the Business Printer Division. "Working with SAP customers, we make it easy for them to produce their business critical documents in ways that help them to improve work processes, increase user satisfaction and reduce total operating costs.
Lexmark`s SAP solutions include bar code, OCR and MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) printing as well as custom device types with extended support for Lexmark printer features. Lexmark also offers printer-based formatting of SAP data and documents and support of SAP output in local languages including the universal language support with International Printing for mySAP.com.
Lexmark`s solutions seamlessly integrate with SAP`s output processes. International Printing for mySAP.com, for example, the first joint development of Lexmark and SAP, is based on UNICODE and supports multiple languages, character sets and dialects (i.e. all Latin (American and European), Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek and Indian). This unique solution enables SAP users to standardise on a single output device with the same generic set-up to print any SAP document in any local language anywhere and eliminates the need for multiple, language-dedicated devices for end users, development and support teams.
Lexmark`s printing solutions for SAP are available for its laser printer family as well as for its OptraImage multifunction device family.
To ensure the functionality, reliability and value of its SAP solutions and to make the collaboration as intensive as possible, Lexmark operates a Center of Expertise at the SAP Partner Port in Walldorf, Germany.
