SYDNEY, Australia – 05 February, 2019 – Fuji Xerox Australia today announced the launch of its newest digital colour multifunction device in the Australian market: The ApeosPort-VII and DocuCentre-VII series. The new range was unveiled at Fuji Xerox Australia’s showroom in Macquarie Park. The new device aligns with Fuji Xerox’s Smart Work Gateway which recognises that office work is moving from the age of analog to the digital age as businesses prepare to be future ready. To do this the Fuji Xerox Research and Development team have built a device that embraces flexible and diversified working styles so that each employee can access the tools they need whether working in an enterprise or small to medium sized business.
Fuji Xerox’s Smart Work Gateway builds a secure yet open communications environment and offers various communication tools tailored to suit customer needs. The concept of this new series offers enhanced security, basic features and design to support the flexible and diversified working styles of start-ups and small businesses for improved performance.
“Customers are at the core of everything we do – from helping them create a sustainable business to setting them on the path ready for a digital workplace. Businesses today must think about the future of work and how to bring in tools that allow workers to be more flexible and manage processes to automate,’ said Takayuki Togo, Managing Director at Fuji Xerox Australia. “The new ApeosPort-VII and DocuCentre-VII series allows businesses to work smarter and use Fuji Xerox’s innovation to embrace cloud-first strategies and data security, making life easier for employees through a flexible work environment and a more streamlined digital process.”
The ApeosPort-VII/DocuCentre-VII offers an enterprise quality product at a cost that is affordable for small to medium sized businesses. The device also offers zero IT infrastructure maintenance for users as all maintenance is managed in the cloud allowing businesses to be more cost efficient and spend less time requiring IT services. The device is user friendly and security has also been prioritised to ensure confidential documents are only read by those intended to receive them. The ApeosPort-VII/DocuCentre-VII also allows users to connect on demand wherever they are opening the possibility of accessing digital documents through the cloud and printing on the go.
Intuitive User Experience
The ApeosPort-VII/DocuCentre-VII device offers enhanced basic features and design for easy use. The 10.1 inch control panel can be tapped and swiped just like a smartphone with the improved intuitive user interface. The paper trays have an easy-to-operate retraction mechanism that allows them to be opened and closed quietly when replenishing paper. Lights and sounds from the printer alert users about job progress and confidential documents left behind to help prevent information leakages.
360° Data Security
To comply with new international standards such as GDPR, the ApeosPort-VII/DocuCentre-VII series offers enhanced security functions for both hardware and software with expansive network communications. Each multifunction printer can be connected to two disassociated networks, enabling the user to separate communications, delivering data security within the office.
Carefree Printer Management
The new ApeosPort-VII/DocuCentre-VII series incorporate a host of services that deliver key operating information such as pre-emptive alerts, usage data and required resources. These assist users mitigate downtime, maximise productivity and thus increase operating margin.
