Optimizing for Performance.

Choosing office equipment for your business is never an easy task. You need to consider the features offered by the various models available, the reliability of the products, the usability of the devices, and your overall budget. These can be a lot of things to juggle all at once.

Xerox VersaLink and Xerox AltaLink are two lines of multifunction devices that many businesses end up trying to decide between. Choosing a Xerox office device is a great decision as the brand has a long history of quality, innovation, and performance.

However, once you have decided to go with Xerox, how do you narrow down your final choice? In this article, we will have a Xerox VersaLink vs. AltaLink comparison to help you decide which line is best for your own unique needs.

Schools and education facilities have one ultimate goal: to educate the students that they serve. Providing students with a top quality education can be very resource-intensive. Every dollar spent must be spent wisely.

This brings us to the heart of why ZOS 360 is the best managed print services (MPS) solution for schools and education offices. Unlike a cookie cutter solution that is implemented without thought or care, ZOS 360 takes a complete look at the needs and pain points for each individual education institution in order to provide a truly customized solution.

ZOS 360 managed services looks beyond printers and technology. Whether you need managed print services for K-12 or managed print services for colleges, ZOS 360 can provide the right solution.

Until recently, deploying and managing print devices on a corporate network was tough work. Not only do different printers use different drivers, but device-specific drivers can't respond to the needs of users in a unified, coherent way.

In a traditional print driver network, every single device has its own driver. The diverse output requirements and individual capabilities mean that every device in the print fleet essentially needs to be taken out of context for any meaningful update or administrative work to occur.

Some devices connect directly to the corporate network. Others connect via USB to employee workstations. What works with one device may not work with another. This may be enough for an enterprise to manage its day-to-day workflows, but what happens when you want to migrate to a new technology platform?

Xerox is a well-known leader in the world of production print. So how does the company's latest printer, the Iridesse, compare to its longstanding top-shelf products like the iGen and Versant-series printing presses?

It turns out there are quite a few features that serve to make the Iridesse stand out. Perhaps the most important is the feature that gives the device its name: single-pass iridescent printing.

The Iridesse combines Xerox's bright and vivid four-color CMYK printing capabilities with space for two additional dry inks on a single pass. This means that its users can enjoy full-color printing and iridescent gold and silver printing in a single pass. A recent study showed that print buyers are willing to pay a premium of 24% to 89% for specialized printing over CMYK only. Also, digital print enhancement volume is expected to reach 25 billion pages by 2020 – that’s over twice as many CMYK pages.

With similar functionality as Alexa or Siri, Xerox Gabi Voice turns any Xerox AltaLink multifunction device into an accessible, voice-activated work assistant  that can print, scan, copy, and transmit documents with ease and efficiency. This turns your AltaLink into a handsfree workstation in full compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Owners of AltaLink printers only need to purchase the Gabi SmartBox in order to use Gabi Voice. Compatibility is included with the latest Xerox software update, transmitted automatically through Xerox ConnectKey servers.

Multilingual documents are a common pain point for global enterprises, as effective translation depends on a fluency in language and culture.

Working in a multilingual environment requires fast and easy access to accurate translation services. Professional translators and interpreters help build the foundation for a successful international enterprise, but come with costs that can hold back growth.

Putting multilingual employees in key positions can improve office workflows in these environments, but may create other problems. Human resource managers who need to hire employees with multilingual skillsets may find themselves compromising on other business-critical skills in the process.

Delivering on company goals, competing in your industry, and growing the bottom line are critical to the success of any business. Profit/loss statements and business plans rarely include sustainable business practices, such as recycling and paperless initiatives. Many don’t believe they make the company more competitive.

However, times are changing. More and more organizations are discovering office sustainability and green business practices are more efficient and provide a competitive advantage.

In an increasingly complex world, businesses are under pressure to constantly improve and succeed. To stay competitive, the company must adapt. Some business processes and workflows are naturally resistant to new ideas or tools. Employees will turn to what they know rather than change behavior.

Simply buying a new tool or software system isn’t enough. Sustainable change requires the right tool. That tool needs to synchronize with existing systems. It must create efficiencies that make employees more productive. It must deliver success with less effort.

Today’s leaders and C-level executives face an increasingly complex, highly competitive and uncertain business environment. Success requires the company stay focused on value-added activities that deliver measurable benefits.

To stay competitive and remain focused, many companies rely on enterprise services such as managed print services (MPS) and document management software. With programs and office services like these, C-level executives optimize enterprise workflow to better focus on high-value tasks and activities.

Wouldn’t it be great if you had a multi-function device that could securely exchange patient information in a HIPAA, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, compliant manner both inside and outside of your network?

The Xerox Healthcare MFP Solution can do just that.

The Healthcare MFP Solution is a device which provides an affordable and efficient way to share patient data across the healthcare ecosystem securely while maintaining regulatory compliance.
