Would any one have any insight on Ricoh vs Canon regarding scan to
searchable pdf. I am in a situation where the customer wants the mfp to
scan a document to searchable pdf and then email it to
themselves. The Canon that the
head of IT wants claims that they (Canon) can do this right out of the
box, and a server is not nessessary, I think its their MEAP solution..
The Ricoh solution looks like to add Global Scan and a server. The IT
guy wants the Canon, He doesnt want to add any additional software. I am trying to poke holes in the Canon solution.
All I got is that it looks like the Canon does the conversion at the
machine, thus potentially tying up the machine while it does its thing. Not terribly compelling with the volume of the scans....If you have any
other thoughts they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
