A multi-function printer offers extra facilities such as scan and faxes in one device eliminating the need for separate purchases and additional expense. Although the purchase price for a multi-function printer may exceed that of a traditional printer, the overall cost is typically less than purchasing multiple devices. Meaning you can benefit from increased functionality without paying for each feature. In addition to the initial purchase savings associated with the original purchase price, maintenance on one device is considerably less than maintaining several devices.

EMS Copiers Managed Print Solution, essentially the brand new device/s without capital outlay, consumables and maintenance included, is an attractive option for many businesses.  Take a look at our short video to find out more https://youtu.be/de8DMcFfd-o

Another advantage of a multi-function printer is conserving space in a busy office. Rather than having to find space for a printer, a copier, a fax machine and a scanner, you can have the same functionality in a single device. This space efficiency may also benefit those trying to utilise their home office area or those working with significant space constraints.  A multi-function printer that includes fax and scan functionalities also adds another level of convenience by saving staff time walking between up to two or three separate devices.

Flexible A3 colour multifunctional printers are at the top of the wish list in many modern offices and need to satisfy as many different user requirements as possible.  The UTAX 2506ci and 3206ci multifunctional systems have been specifically developed to meet these requirements.

UTAX 7006ci - 8006ci MFP

The 270-sheet dual-scan original feeder in this multifunctional device can fast scan in a single operation with careful handling of original documents. The systems conserve resources at the same time by allowing blank pages to be automatically filtered out during scanning and copying. The high print resolution of 1,200 dpi at full system speed also prints in SRA3 format and offers the option to process different paper thicknesses allowing you to create highly professional documents in brilliant colour quality. The versatile printer driver and the optional Fiery® Controller available for the 3206ci system also offer various options for optimising colour reproduction.

The menus of the large 9-inch colour touch display are easy to use. You can access the home menu at all times via the home button plus you can adapt this menu to suit your personal needs. The HyPAS interface allows you to easily integrate software solutions to optimise your specific processes. For printing on the move, the systems also feature an NFC interface for direct printing from an Android smartphone or tablet.

You can process up to 7,150 sheets from six paper feeds for various media. Paper formats from A6R to SRA3, paperweights from 52 to 300 g/m2 and even tab sheets are readily fed from the paper cassettes. Papers of up to 256 g/m2 can also be processed in duplex printing and used as cover sheets, for example. The innovative soft-close feature of our paper cassettes guarantees that paper can be added with minimal sound. Do you need different finishing options? We can offer you these! Everything is possible: from the space-saving internal finisher with 50-sheet stapling to a brochure finisher that also creates tri-folding for letters in addition to brochures with up to 64 A4 or A5 pages. In addition, all finishers in this multifunctional device can be equipped with a punch unit.

EMS Copiers are proud to be amongst the sponsors for the upcoming Play for Amy fundraising event.

The Fun All-Stars Hurling and Football Match between current and former County players are in Commercials Hurling Club, Rathcoole, Co. Dublin, on the afternoon of Saturday, 14th September.

Amy Ferguson Conlon is a 15-year-old CHC (Crumlin Heart Cardiac) and double heart transplant patient who also suffers from advanced scoliosis and associated complications and needs specialist care to meet her everyday needs.

  The fundraising committee already has over 20 GAA County Stars who have pledged their support to this event, such as DJ Carey, Philly McMahon, Eddie Brennan, Niall Quinn, Tomás Ó’Sé and Jack Sheedy to name but a few. More names are being added to the list daily!  They hope to raise enough to help her family manage her life-altering condition and hopefully if she is well enough to travel with a special support team, to be able to send her on a trip of a lifetime to somewhere special!

The link for the Play for Amy fundraiser is below.  Any sponsorship or donations are greatly appreciated.

Take a look at our short video and find out how EMS can tailor a Managed Print Solution for your business.

https://youtu.be/de8DMcFfd-o

EMS Managed Print Solution is underpinned by intuitive software, robust user-friendly hardware and a dedicated team of staff. We have been working with both the business and education sectors since 1970, so we know what we are talking about!

What is a Managed Print Solution?

Essentially a new device/s with no capital outlay.  Maintenance and toner included.  All of our devices print, copy and scan.  EMS offers a range of bespoke software solutions designed for specific functions or vertical markets to fit in with your business process.   Our software packs are essentially a mix of software, hardware and professional services that, when combined, produce a package of products bespoke to the clients’ needs with the flexibility to adapt and scale as required.

What type of company benefit from Managed Print?

There is a common myth among smaller businesses that Managed Print is only viable for organisations with a large staff base.  While EMS have implemented our Managed Print into large multi-locational organisations, we have passed on significant savings to smaller companies with perhaps just a few members of staff.  Many of the smaller companies we work with are often surprised by how much they actually print and their subsequent spend.

Why an EMS Managed Print Solution is different

EMS provides a service-based, dedicated, no-frills, tailored Managed Print Solution.  So no, we don’t supply you with stationery, furniture or claim that our devices will make your morning coffee.  However, we can guarantee you that you will receive efficient, reliable devices, scalable software all backed up by a team of highly qualified and experienced field engineers.

The tailored approach – EMS take the time to get to know you and your business

Before we implement a Managed Print Solution we take the time to familiarize ourselves with the organisation, its layout and carry out a detailed audit of the volumes produced on the existing devices.  Factors such as the business expanding or downsizing are all taken into account.  By taking the time to go through this process EMS can provide a detailed and accurate analysis of potential cost and efficiency savings.

Taking care of colour costs

EMS also offers an intuitive Intelligent Colour Billing Solution.  Put simply, we automatically calculate the amount of colour toner you use per page and reflect this in your billing.  So you only get charged for the amount of colour you actually use.

The Benefits of Intelligent Colour Billing:

  • Reduce Print Costs – Only pay for the colour you use
  • Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
  • Complete visibility and traceability of your print costs
  • No compromise on print quality
  • Increased sustainability – Less toner usage means less waste

Our aim is to minimise potential regulation breaches in the areas of printer security and data management.

The UTAX Data Security Kit from EMS ensures the protection of your confidential information, right at the system level:

  • It overwrites and encrypts copying, scanning and printing data, even before they are saved to the hard drive.
  • In addition, the memory area for the output data is automatically deleted so that the data cannot be

Data Security Kit

IT Printer Security is indispensable for secure business operations and uninterrupted processes.  Whether it is because of the increasing threat of cyber attacks, the growing number of applications and sensitive data, or new regulatory requirements, security in office communication represents a challenge for every place of education. 

Functions offered:

  • Encrypts documents and user data automatically before they are saved to the hard drive (in compliance with AES-256)

  • Overwrites data that is no longer required and memory areas from which data have already been “logically” deleted

  • Triple overwriting (standard setting): The same area is overwritten twice with a random pattern and finally with zeros

  • Password protected for administrators

  • Certified according to ISO 15408 EAL 2

Advantages for customers:

Protects confidential data right at the system level, and thus increases the protection of your  data against unauthorised access

  • Secure method for overwriting and encryption of data, which makes the restoration of information virtually impossible

  • Simple implementation and intuitive operation directly at the MFP or printer

The result of a data breach can be devastating to a school or college, large or small. As well as huge penalties, imposed by strict new compliance regulations there is damage to a schools reputation.  As firewalls are no longer enough to protect your data, it is essential to implement multiple layers of protection down to every network endpoint—from PCs to printer and address compliance requirements.
