June 17th, 2009 by under Print & Copy Best Practices. 7 Comments.

Ten Things to Consider When Buying a Multifunction Printer: Article 3

March 5th, 2009 by under Multifunction Printer MFP. 13 Comments.

Get A Second Opinion

It pays to look beneath the hood before you purchase a multifunction device. The easiest way is to check on-line ratings.

Trust but Verify

Manufacturers will always paint their products in the best possible light. That means their published speed, duty cycle, supply costs etc… will always feature best-case scenarios that rarely reflect real-world use. So the easiest way to get another opinion is to see what the product users have to say.

Knowing Who to Trust

Try looking the device up on-line at retrevo.com. This site aggregates consumer and technical reviews. PCworld.com, Cnet.com and zdnet.com are other sites having product reviews as well. Look for information regarding the actual device speed and user comments on ease of use etc.

Bottom Line:

Understand what the experienced people in the industry are saying about the product you are researching, and you’ll make a more informed decision.

5. Know how easy it is to use
6. Know its multitasking abilities
7. Know its bi-directional communication capabilities
8. Know the available device management, remote intelligence, and support
9. Know whether it provides the level of security and confidentiality you need
10. Know what software and solutions are available

Multifunction printers can help you streamline duplicate and cumbersome document processes and electronically organize, edit and archive your paper documents. With an MFP and a simple software application you can turn paper documents into electronic format and send to multiple destinations – email, document repositories, network folders, even remote printers – with a single scan.

Once you’re armed with the knowledge you’ve gathered by asking these questions, you’ll be prepared to make the right decision for your business.
