FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 9, 2005--EFI
(Nasdaq:EFII), the world leader in digital imaging and print
management solutions for commercial and enterprise printing, today
announced the new integration of SendMe(TM), the company's document
capture and distribution solution, with Xerox WorkCentre(R) Pro
advanced multifunction systems. The joint solution brings superior
productivity and greater return on investment to office environments,
such as those in healthcare, insurance, financial, retail and legal
markets.
Using SendMe and Xerox WorkCentre Pro systems, people can now scan
a document, preview it using EFI's scanning kiosk and with the push of
a button, transform critical hardcopy information into digital files
that can be sent anywhere in the world, instantly. Customers can
simultaneously send the documents to any number of e-mail addresses,
fax machines/servers, or printers, or file them on a desktop, network
or document management systems, such as Xerox DocuShare(TM) enterprise
content management (ECM) software. Combining SendMe with a document
management system enhances productivity by accelerating and
simplifying the inclusion of meta-data, giving the newly scanned
document context within the corporation's existing document workflow.
SendMe users scan pages in full color, grayscale or
black-and-white, and preview the digital files as thumbnails or
full-page images in PDF, TIFF or JPEG format using a large, intuitive
touch-screen interface. Documents are immediately available via
e-mail, ftp, online repository or through a fax server. Additionally,
the delivery capabilities of SendMe offer significant cost savings
compared to the traditional delivery methods, overnight service,
faxing, and postal mail.
"This new integration continues the long-standing EFI and Xerox
collaboration that delivers great results for end user customers,"
said Frank Mallozzi, vice president, worldwide sales and marketing,
EFI. "The SendMe/WorkCentre Pro integration delivers what high- and
mid-volume office customers need to keep a competitive edge in today's
business world, greater efficiencies to manage and share the
exorbitance of paper documents."
SendMe streamlines every phase of electronic paper distribution
with enhanced productivity, touch-screen ease, Internet speed and the
power and versatility of advanced digital technology. SendMe
seamlessly integrates into any document management system and
workflow, works with any scanning engine or destination, and allows
user interface customization with API scripting and an easy-to-use
administrator's application. To further enhance customer productivity
and provide a streamlined workflow among hybrid components, SendMe for
Xerox WorkCentre Pro includes bundled connectors to the following
workflow solutions:
Xerox DocuShare software, an intuitive, easy-to-use, web-based
