Re: Technology is Transforming Communication
As usual, Ray, you're perfectly right. I add something totally in that mood. It happened just yesterday and, maybe, 2 or 3 people missed the history in the making. Over the English Channel, a man made a flight. https://www.lemonde.fr/interna...he_5496464_3210.html https://youtu.be/d9PFPLEC6tw I totally understand your reference to the Communicator in Space Trek. And this one is clearly about Marty McFly's hoverboard in Back to the Future. Dreams made reality!

Re: Recognizing Disruption
What, this article has been up since the 3rd and no comments? Well, I guess I'm guilty of that too as it is the 9th. However, I am surprised that I'm the first to comment on this. I have been in the business for a total of 5.5 years so on one hand I'm still a greeny (but then in the copier business that seems to be pretty tenured) and I'm 54 yrs old. After my first 1.5 yrs in the business I took another job, but then cam back 10 months later after my old boss called me with a major account...

Re: Recognizing Disruption
ebyers, ty for posting the reply. I've been out of sorts for the past few weeks with some much needed time off. Many dealers don't need to change because they are still making a great profit. Sorry, I meant GREAT profit! Thus change is not in order for them. Salespeople to make that change, it's possible, one great idea with a few bucks behind that idea could change everything. What Ray posted above could be the copier industry, or it could be IT services or maybe software. Print Audit has...

Re: The Future of Scanning for MFP's aka Copiers is in the Cloud
Art, Interesting read! Here's a little "trick" I figured out. Setting up Cloud Scanning is very easy and can be without any additional software if the cloud storage offers a folder on your PC. For example, Dropbox and Google Drive when installed place "drag and drop" folders on your desktop. You can then set up a small workflow for scanning to the cloud by registering a Scan To Shared Folder and set the Dropbox or Google Drive folder as your destination. Your scanned document will...

Re: The Future of Scanning for MFP's aka Copiers is in the Cloud
Czech Thanx for the reply, you have been scanning to a single folder on dropbox for years and recently added google drive on the 5 year old MFP we used in the sales area. You could set up multiple "buttons" on the MFP for additional folders.

Re: The Future of Scanning for MFP's aka Copiers is in the Cloud
I can't say that I agree that scan to email or folder are dying in my experience. Scanning to Office 365 should only require a special connector configuration in the hub transport layer. Like traditional scan to email or folder the first time is difficult and it doesn't seem like it's worth the effort but in time it should become more simple. "Scan to Cloud" seems to be a vague term as most people who are looking for a solution like this may be referring to scanning to their application...

Recognizing Disruption
What we see is only visualized after our mind translates the image. In business, our actions can easily be highjack by what we conditioned ourselves to see. Why is it that some can look through things and some only see things as painted with no interpretation? I remember years ago there was a poster the picture was a bunch of squiggly lines. As you stared at the picture squinting your eyes just right, the squiggly lines would come to life as a recognizable image of a person or thing. It...
