No so Sally. Most scan jobs, with a predesignated workflow and/or the proper software integrated, will take 30 seconds to 2 minutes. If your MFP is that busy, we really should talk.
"But, my stand alone scanners utilize a barcode process we set up and the MFP won't."
Well Willy, who have you spoke to lately? Fact is, barcode scanning, when integrated with the MFP should be an advantage at the MFP. The integration at the MFP is more than likely going to prevent most after scan processing and filing of the documents over using a scan station especially when batching up documents for scanning.
"You can't preview the document before committing it."
Can't speak for all, but as a single line Sharp dealer, the Sharp devices not only give a zoomable thumbnail on a color 8.5 inch screen, but also plays video. (Come check this out! It is rather neat.)
I've heard this one many times....
"Our very expensive scanners provide automatically cleaned up images and small files sizes".
As I said before, come check our Sharp devices. Seeing is believing. Don't recall ever losing a deal over a dedicated scanner.
If you haven't checked out the latest in offerings, contact me. Big color video screen, slide out keyboard, military level security. There is so much more now, we published a small book on it.
Don't waste money on an expensive scanner.
"Why, you can't fit many pages in the doc feeder and the scan speed is slow."
If I keep answering, you might quit arquing and just call me. The feeders handle robust amounts of paper AND both sides of the paper get scanned at once. Then, just ask what "Job Build" and delete blank pages are.
"MFPs can't create searchable PDFs."
Yes you can. MFP scanning software allows you to create and save PDFs that are available for text searches within documents. To take it further, our MFPs take your Active Directory login and give you your own scanning route in the screen. Don't want to login? Do you have one of those employee ID cards?...
"When can I come see this?"
Ah, my kind of question... http://www.dtsimaging.com/
