Docutraq and Xerox Mobile Print give remote access to hard copy documents
Not having the right literature or paperwork to hand when you’re away from the office can be frustrating, and you can almost feel the impact fading as you say, “I’ll pop it in the post for you…”
If only you could access the document there and then, or even tailor it to a customer or colleague’s needs…
Mobile devices have enabled easy access to information on the move, but sometimes there’s no substitute for a hard-copy document. Fontware has delivered the best of both worlds by integrating its new Docutraq Suite with Xerox Mobile Print. In essence Docutraq becomes an embedded, one-stop solution for document capture, storage, search and print.
Print on-demand and on-the-road
The twists and turns of daily business mean that even the most prepared professional will struggle to foresee every possible document requirement, let alone carry everything in their briefcase or even the car boot. Extensive product ranges, or detailed catalogues and technical manuals, make this an unwieldy approach. Far more practical and sophisticated is to search Docutraq archives on a smartphone or tablet for example, and send a clean copy of the exact information needed to the nearest Xerox Mobile Print facility. This even presents the opportunity to make minor amends or to adapt content for a specific situation. Handy if you need to personalise a contract document or a template for example, or change the variables in quotes and purchase orders. Office-based colleagues can upload revisions and additions to the archive too, so that mobile users are assured of real-time access to the most up-to-date versions.
Producing the right document on the spot is impressive and can also help to augment a presentation or clarify important details. Any delay and the moment might pass. Hand-outs and leave-behinds can help seal the deal, shoring up the face-to-face work you’ve done rather than keeping a customer waiting or leaving the door wide open to competitors.
Mobile document access with Docutraq
The Docutraq Suite of document management solutions enables organisations of any size to automate business processes and improve efficiency by electronically capturing and managing information.
Docutraq’s document scanner module captures information from hard copies via thousands of supported scanners and multi-functional devices (MFDs). Electronic documents and email can be dragged and dropped directly into Docutraq cabinets, or submitted via document forms or placed into special hot-folders. Remote access to archive documents gets even more useful when you can send them to print from the same interface.
Hard copies to hand with Xerox Mobile Print
Xerox Mobile Print enables simple and secure printing from any email-enabled device including notebooks, netbooks, smartphones and tablet computers such as the iPad, without being physically connected to a corporate network or downloading drivers and apps.
Xerox Mobile Print supports Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDFs, text and rich text files, JPG images and HTML email. Once the correct document has been chosen from the Docutraq archive, users identify the nearest Xerox-enabled multifunction printer (MFP), enter a secure confirmation code on the Docutraq interface and select ‘Send to Xerox Mobile Printing’. The MFP interface can show a thumbnail preview of documents, and enables users to choose output settings (duplex, collate, staple, etc.) as if they were printing from their desktop.
