01 September 2010- Kyocera Mita today launched the HyPAS Developer
Partner Program for its HyPAS™ software platform. The program will support
Kyocera Mita partners in developing bespoke software applications that
optimize Kyocera’s TASKalfa devices to offer customers advanced functionality
and enhanced document workflows.
HyPAS™ is
Kyocera Mita’s powerful and scalable software platform that incorporates both
Java and Web Services Software Development Kits (SDK). It enables the
development of embedded and server applications that optimize the performance of
Kyocera TASKalfa MFPs, making them fully customizable and easily integrated into
business applications and processes. The availability of both Java and Web
Services allows developers to select the most appropriate technology for the
development of their application, or combine technologies if required.
The HyPAS™ Developer Partner Program provides comprehensive support and tools to assist developers in creating applications. On joining the program developers will gain full access to HyPAS™ Java and Web Services SDKs, the Scan SDK and operation panel Application Program Interfaces (API), as well as advanced development tools and detailed device information. These are delivered via the HyPAS™ Developer Portal which also includes a forum to facilitate the sharing of information and collaboration within the developer community. Development support is provided to programme members by Kyocera Mita’s in-house team of HyPAS™ technicians. Developer partners will also take part in an initial two-day familiarisation workshop which will introduce HyPAS™ programming in a hands-on environment.
Flexible partnership
Members of the HyPAS™ Developer Partner
Program can choose the way in which they would prefer to work with Kyocera Mita.
By becoming a HyPAS™ Alliance Partner, organizations can market and distribute
their application jointly with Kyocera Mita via its local, European, or
global distribution channels. Organisations wishing to distribute, market and
support their HyPAS™ applications independently of Kyocera Mita can
register to become an Independent HyPAS™ Developer, enjoying the same level of
access to tools and support as Alliance Partners.
Reiko Owada, Product Manager at Kyocera Mita Europe commented: “The HyPAS™ Developer Partner Program will promote the development of wide-ranging and innovative applications for Kyocera TASKalfa MFPs, enabling advanced customization and integration into customer workflows and business processes. The program is flexibly designed to benefit developers, giving them the freedom to choose how they bring their HyPAS™ applications to market. The HyPAS™ Developer Partner Program will enable our partners to respond to client requests for highly specific and dynamic solutions, creating document systems that drive productivity and efficiency for our customers.”
