New,
feature rich and easy to use devices provide advanced technology,
functionality, security and flexibility for organisations to take
control of their document workflows.
Egham, 4th September 2013
– OKI Europe Ltd launched its new range of A4 mono MFPs, the MB700
Series, designed to expand on the recent success of the award winning
MC700 Series of A4 colour MFPs launched earlier this year.
The
MC700/MB700 Series provide additional levels of business productivity
through sXP (smart Extendable Platform), an embedded open platform
offering enhanced workflow integration and document management, across
the business. The new range of mono and colour MFPs provide additional
flexibility, allowing organisations to select the model and options
specific to their business needs, for optimum print effectiveness.
Over
the past 18 months, OKI has added to its SMB offering with a series of
products which have been well-received by micro, small and medium sized
business users. As a result, OKI has increased market share, reinforcing
the company’s reputation for its customer-centric approach in providing
businesses with reliable, high-quality and cost-effective print
solutions.
“Our
new portfolio of A4, colour and mono MFPs extends this successful
approach to the larger workgroup and enterprise market,” confirms Harry
Takahashi, managing director, OKI Europe Ltd, “this is down to a
combination of enterprise-class functionality, security and flexibility,
backed by comprehensive document workflow support.
“By
improving the way documents are handled, managed and processed, this
will deliver significant operational efficiencies and cost savings to
the organisation, ensuring that their print capability fully supports
the broader objectives of the business.”
Award winning Technology
As with the new MB700 Series, the MC700 Series offers
organisations greater business productivity, workflow integration and
document management. Since its launch earlier this year, the MC700
Series has already received a very strong and positive response from the
market including a number of prestigious accolades:
- Better Buys for Business Editor’s Choice award
- Editor’s recommendation by IT w Administracji a prestigious magazine for public sector IT specialists and managers in Poland
- Office Oscar 2013 for innovation by OEN Office Equipment News in the UK a specialist magazine for key personnel responsible for the purchase or specification of office equipment
Driving business productivity
The
MC700/MB700 Series enables businesses to move from a manual paper-based
workflow into a digital workflow. The open architecture sXP enables
seamless integration of workflows into the end user’s information
infrastructure allowing businesses to benefit from lower costs, improved
productivity and operational efficiencies.
In
addition, the MC700/MB700 Series includes software for effective device
management tasks such as remote diagnostics and document output
controls including print tracking and authentication.
“In
selecting the most appropriate print solution, some organisations will
focus on improving productivity and efficiency, whereas others may focus
on controlling print usage or an environmentally-friendly solution with
low running and maintenance costs,” says Takahashi. “Whatever the
priorities of the individual business, OKI’s highly flexible range of
mono and colour MFPs can be tailored to meet each of these diverse
demands.”
High performance, unrivalled flexibility
The MC700/MB700 Series includes the following models:
The MC760dn, MC770dn, MC780dfn, MB760dn, MB770dn and MB770dfn
- All models have a convenience stapler as standard to facilitate post
production finishing. The dfn models come with an internal finisher for
automated document collation and stapling.
The
new mono and colour MFPs benefit from the latest OKI LED print engine
technology. All models come with a 23cm, colour-backlit touch screen
with an easy-to-use control panel enabling personalised user settings.
In
all models the scanner and the print engine are based on OKI’s LED
technology, delivering print speeds of up to 40ppm (MC780) and 52ppm
(MB770). Other enterprise-class functionality includes duplex printing
and scanning, flexible scan destinations and formats and large-capacity
160GB hard drive as standard.
These
eco-friendly mono MFPs have advanced security features including secure
PIN printing, data encryption and disk wiping and a secure print with
card release option. The ergonomic design enables easy access to
consumables and offers a variety of optional paper trays for flexible
paper capacity and paper feed options.
The MC700/MB700 Series is also backed by OKI Europe’s three-year warranty on registration of the product within 30 days.
Enhancing OKI’s Managed Print Services Offering
“Every aspect of the MC700 and MB700 Series design reflects our ‘no
compromise’ approach to providing customers with flexible,
high-productivity print to meet the demands of the business. The awards
and positive reviews the MC700 has already received in such a short
period is a testament to this and we expect the same response from the
market for the MB700 Series” confirms Takahashi.
“These
enterprise-class MFPs are not only an important addition to our product
portfolio they will also significantly strengthen our managed print
services strategy, which aims to provide products that meet the precise
needs of each customer.”
