Most of us take very little notice of the office copier when everything is working great. When something goes amiss, however, we realize how much we depend on our copier to keep everyday processes on track.
Here's a look at three common copier issues and what you can do to get back to business ASAP.
Data breaches have become a regular part of the news; so much so that businesses and individuals alike are in danger of growing complacent. The truth is, it's never a good time to let your guard down, and social engineering attacks are on the rise.
From stricter government compliance mandates to new tactics from hackers, your need for a robust IT management solution is higher than ever.
Your up-and-coming workforce has some expectations your organization should be ready to meet. For starters, they don't expect to be tied to the home office, and you'll need a robust document management application that's up to the task.
If you're thinking about switching from paper-based processes to electronic document management (and you definitely should be!), then you'll need to take a look at scanning solutions. A multifunction system with a scanning feature is always a good option. However, if you're dealing with a lot of incoming documents or scanning years of archived files, a dedicated scanner can save time while leaving your multifunction system available for other tasks.
If you're a little fuzzy about the differences between copiers, printers, and multifunction systems, that's understandable. The terms are often used interchangeably, but there are significant differences between these three types of imaging technologies. Here's a look at the capabilities and features commonly found in devices from each category.

While technology can help your healthcare facility maintain document security, it's how your staff uses the equipment that determines compliance.
HIPAA compliance rules fall under three general categories including document confidentiality, the integrity of saved information, and availability to Protected Health Information (PHI).
If you are a small business, you have no doubt struggled, at times, with tech support. Often, the most tech-savvy person in the office becomes the default person to help you get your computers working.
If you've identified that it's time to hire a company to help you with your small business desktop support or your small business network support, you might want a simple guide to help you know what to look for. Consider these four areas of expertise while conducting your search.
Document management software isn't new, and it has evolved significantly over the years. In the beginning, document management was nothing more than scanning your documents and then using key terms to search for those documents. Today, document management software allows for so much more enhancement in your operational flow.
In a recent blog post, we talked about the 4 Reasons to Go Paperless. The reality is that without document management software, you'll never truly realize those benefits.
