Real Estate Law Firm Scanning Bottleneck

Are You a Law Firm With A Scanning Bottleneck?

THE CHALLENGE – Scanning Bottleneck: A mid-sized law firm specializing in real estate transactions and litigation has a large client roster that includes developers, entrepreneurs and government agencies. In this paper-intensive business, significant document workflow inefficiencies have been identified by the law firm itself. Specifically, the scanning of hardcopy documents to the firm’s document management system is creating bottlenecks; multiple steps are required to incorporate paper into their digital workflow, which is further complicated by the lack of easy document tracking and retrieval. The challenge is to replace outdated machines with state-of-the-art Kyocera document imaging devices.

 

THE REQUIREMENTS – Streamline Document Workflow and Automate Document Versioning: The firm required MFPs that could streamline document workflow, while also automating document versioning, whereby a unique identifier is embedded in each scanned page. As legal briefs, motions and rulings are communicated between multiple parties (offices, attorneys and clients), the office must maintain accurate records of each review cycle.

 

THE PROPOSAL – Kyocera DMS Link Enhances Existing Processes: The proposal called for the installation of five Kyocera Color MFPs and DMS Link 4.0 for Legal, a highly scalable business application that would integrate the MFP with existing processes that the law firm already had in place. DMS Link 4.0 for Legal’s pre-set workflows support Bates Stamping and Legal Expert Database functionality, which would help simplify content capture and management.

 

THE RESULT – Improved Information Sharing, Resource Optimization and Document Workflows: After deployment of the high-performance Kyocera MFPs
enabled with DMS Link 4.0 for Legal, the firm realized far-reaching benefits; MFP users enjoy easy document indexing, scanning, archival and retrieval, which in turn boosts office productivity and improves document security.

Legal Office Saves Time and Money with Carbon Copy, Inc.Electronic LEGAL Files

KYOCERA managed document services provide reliable, secure managed print services that are time and cost efficient.

LAW FIRM THAT RELIES HEAVILY ON SCANNED DOCUMENTS SAYS GOODBYE TO MULTI-STEP PROCESS

How To Choose A Copier – Look for Buyers Laboratory Certificates

KYOCERA SCOOPS 6 NEW BUYERS LAB AWARDS

Buyers Laboratory cites extraordinary durability, less waste, lower costs in exhaustive testing of newest printers and MFPs.

FAIRFIELD, N.J. – July 13, 2016 – KYOCERA Document Solutions America, Inc., one of the world’s leading document solutions companies, today announced that it has received multiple awards from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI).

BLI is a leading independent provider of product intelligence for the imaging industry, trusted by buyers and IT directors around the world.


 How to Choose a Copier? – Look for a local supplier of Kyocera:

Mark Scott of Carbon Copy, Inc.

Carbon Copy, your copier and printer specialists

Read Randall B.‘s review of Carbon Copy Inc on Yelp

8/11/2016

We have a large office in Sacramento and our previous large copier/scanner/fax machine from Xerox, while only 2 years old, seemed to take FOREVER to print a simple page. If it involved a color photo, 5 minutes was not unusual. Mark Scott of Carbon Copy replaced the Xerox with his Kyocera brand and the results could not have been more dramatic. This thing is so fast and the quality is outstanding. If you have need of a great multi-purpose machine, contact Mark. He WILL take care of your business’s needs!


Certificate of Reliability and Highly Recommended Rating

Kyocera’s ECOSYS P6130cdn and ECOSYS M6535cidn each received BLI’s coveted Certificate of Reliability and “Highly Recommended” rating.

Kyocera also picked up an Outstanding Achievement in Innovation award for the eco-friendly waste toner design of its new A3 models, and the TASKalfa 406ci added to its already considerable accolades, taking home the “Pick” award for Outstanding Color MFP for Mid-Size to Large Workgroups.

  • It’s not just the amount of industry recognition, it’s the variety,” said Danielle Wolowitz, Vice President, Corporate Marketing Division for KYOCERA Document Solutions America. “Our goal is to be best-in-class in every aspect of product design and reliability, and these awards are further validation.”

    ECOSYS Printers Ace Reliability Tests

    In the business printer category, reliability is consistently ranked among the most important factors, and arguably the greatest competitive differentiator. Over a 2-month period, BLI putKyocera’s ECOSYS P6130cdn and ECOSYS M6535cidn through exhaustive 50,000-impression tests, including running both devices at their maximum duty cycles.

    Each printer “proved to be a highly reliable product,” and both earned the “Highly Recommended” rating and seal of approval, BLI’s strongest endorsement.

    TASKalfa MFPs Add to Accolades with Waste Container Design

    BLI analysts were thoroughly impressed by Kyocera’s unique waste toner container design, which has numerous tangible benefits.

    BLI Senior Editor George Mikolay explains: “Because KYOCERA’s new A3 MFP lineup lets you use an expired black toner bottle as a waste container, customers will likely see a reduction in waste generated, storage requirements for supplies, as well as downtime and service costs, with no need to send out a tech with a replacement waste toner container.” The design earned Kyocera the 2016 BLI Outstanding Achievement in Innovation award.

    Highly Recommended TASKalfa

    Introduced just 5 months ago, the TASKalfa 406ci MFP has already amassed numerous industry honors, including BLI’s “Highly Recommended” rating. BLI’s latest assessment focused on suitability for one of its primary user bases, ultimately naming the 406ci as the “Outstanding Color MFP for Mid-Size and Large Workgroups.”

    Compact Footprint – Full Functionality

    “The 406ci offers the full functionality of an A3 copier in a more compact footprint and at a much lower cost,” said Marlene Orr, Director of Office Equipment Analysis at BLI.

    Several key features were noted:

  • A 7” full-color tablet-like control panel

  • Strong scanning capabilities;

  • Kyocera’s open platform, HyPAS, which enables the TASKalfa 406ci to run a more robust portfolio of business applications, including PinPoint Scan, DMConnect, DocuWare Connector, Teaching Assistant and more.

    BLI was also impressed by the Tiered Color System pricing, which allows organizations to pay for the actual amount of color used, instead of full price for even spot color.

    “For these reasons and more, the TASKalfa 406ci is an ideal choice for mid-size and large workgroups,” Orr concluded.

    Raising the Bar – How Can We Be Better

    For Kyocera’s Wolowitz, the focus continues to be the big picture. “For every device, we question ‘How can it be even better?’ Today’s award-winning feature is tomorrow’s standard feature. The goal has to be continuous improvement.”

    ENTRY LEVEL COLOR FOR SMALL BUSINESS

    The two new MFPs are positioned for small business and small to mid-size workgroups. However, Kyocera says these lower-volume MFPs offer many of the “advanced features of the top-of-the-line TASKalfa models” that it will introduce later this year, including Kyocera’s new toner technology and “rich, full-spectrum color.”

    Both the TASKalfa 3252ci and TASKalfa 2552ci provide standard WiFi-Direct connectivity (print without a network router) and tap-and-print Near Field Communication (NFC) with NFC-enabled Android mobile devices.

    As with Kyocera’s higher-volume MFPs, the MFPs are enabled with Kyocera’s HyPAS platform, enabling them to support Apple AirPrint, Google, Cloud Print, and Kyocera Mobile Print, but also all of the optional business software applications Kyocera now offers for document management, mobile and cloud-based print and scan, network device management, cost-control and security, and more.

    They also feature a 9-inch, 90-degree-tilt touchscreen; simplified toner-cartridge replacement; tiered-color billing; reduced service time; and a wide range of configurations, including a new 500-sheet internal document finisher.

Why Upgrade Your Copier?

Upgrade Your Copier to Save

Did you know that your copier/Multi-Function Printing Device is one of the most used machines in your office?

Did you also know that the most upset and frustration comes when the copier may not be functioning at it’s best – and of course this is always around a deadline.

That is why you should have Carbon Copy, Inc. come and inspect your copier/printer and make sure it is suited to your office demands. Technology changes and advances and so do your office needs. Make sure you take all the necessary precautions to protect your most treasured asset – your employees. 

5 Reasons to Upgrade Your Copiers and Printers

1. Improved Quality: Upgrades often come with new technology designed specifically to help you better manage your documents and improve the overall quality of your printed materials. Color printers today can actually produce the same or higher quality documents and images than you would receive from your local print shops, and at much lower prices.

2. Lower Costs: A lower cost per copy is always welcome. Because an upgraded machine operates more efficiently, newer machines will typically provide a lower cost per copy. Imagine doing your work inhouse, meeting your deadlines, reducing your reliance on print shops, saving you both time and money.

3. Less Maintenance: Upgrade your copier to replace older inefficient equipment with newer technology that will improve the overall function of your office. This translates into fewer calls to your maintenance service provider and less money spent on repairs.

4. Multifunctional: Upgrading your copiers and printers to an MFP combines the functions of copiers, network printers, scanners, and fax machines all into one device. It is more efficient and you will save on supplies and electricity.

5. Enhanced Security: Most upgrades come with new security features designed to prevent unauthorized usage. Some of these features may  help you identify printing patterns which will help you set printing limits. Newer devices can also include security features that encrypt or protect the data stored on your device’s hard drive.

Small technical changes, like upgrading your copiers and printers, can often improve your production possibilities in a big way. Capabilities that used to be expensive or unavailable are now standard on today’s digital devices.

SAFEGUARDING DATA WHEN NETWORKS GO DOWN

SAFEGUARDING DATA WHEN NETWORKS GO DOWN

Could your business benefit from additional document backup in case of server failure? Kyocera’s PreservDOX securely saves PDFs to a designated, synchronized folder at your PC, as well as automatically routing them to a Kyocera HyPAS®-enabled MFP.

Every business has documents it can’t afford to lose. That’s why KYOCERA created PreservDox™. This powerful, proprietary business application provides you with a level of protection that goes above and beyond conventional backup routines.

When configured on your network, it automatically saves mission-critical documents on your MFP’s hard drive—so you’ll have immediate access to the data even if your network goes down. Plus, PreservDox™ respects the privacy of your data by blocking unauthorized access to the files with personalized PIN codes. Business continuity solutions do not address the period of time an organization is most vulnerable: the critical gap between a server going down and network operations being restored. KYOCERA’s PreservDox™ fills that gap. It allows PDFs to be saved to a synchronized “watch” folder on a PC or server, and automatically stores the files on an MFP’s hard drive—thus allowing for immediate access, whether or not the network is operating. Users can access the designated folder on any HyPAS-enabled MFP on the network using an individual four-digit PIN code. In addition, PreservDox™ can provide your administrators with status information on when the last update was sent, as well as cloning capability for thhem to disburse application settings across multiple devices.hem to disburse application settings across multiple devices.

<h2>Saving Critical Documents </h2>

Critical documents can be saved to a designated synched folder at your PC, and automatically routed to your predefined Kyocera HyPAS®-enabled MFP for safe keeping and immediate access. To protect confidentiality of the routed files, PIN codes are assigned to each folder – eliminating unauthorized access to the data. In addition, PreservDOX™ can provide your administrators with status information on when the last update was sent, as well as cloning capability for them to disburse application settings across multiple devices.

 

<h2>Retrieving Critical Documents When the Network Goes Down is Easy</h2>

USING PRESERDOX™ IS SIMPLE AND INTUITIVE:

  1. Protect the document by copying it to a designated watch folder.
  2. In the event of network failure, retrieve the document by launching PreservDox™ and entering the appropriate four-digit PIN at the MFP’s control panel.
  3. Select the file and print.

PRESERVDOX IS A COMPLETE RECOVERY SOLUTION

 

Business continuity solutions do not address the period of time an organization is most vulnerable: the critical gap between a server going down and network operations being restored. Kyocera’s PreservDOX™ offers flexibility that aligns with your business needs – allowing you to minimize downtime, maintain staff productivity and adhere to regulatory requirements.

PreservDOX™ is intended to supplement recovery protocols that your organization undertakes and can be part of a complete recovery strategy for your business. PreservDOX™ is limited to providing your organization access to PDF documents that have been saved within the application prior to any interruption.

PreservDOX is a trademark of Kyocera.

Can You Email That To Me?

Can You Email That To Me?

Increasingly in the business world we hear, “Can You Email That To Me?” “Sure”, you say as you walk down the hall and wonder how long this is going to take me. The document isn’t digitized and is double sided.

No worries with the Kyocera Scan to Email.

scan to email Kyocera Carbon Copy

Your office probably already has been using scanning technology.

Scanning offers some real benefits to your office:

Reduced risk  – Scanning documents reduces the risk of loss of vital information as well as the risk of a lost business opportunity for lack of timely access to information.

Improved productivity – A digital filing system makes it easier to search for information using a keyword or phrase.

Anytime, anywhere access – Today document scanners come with the a one-touch functionality of sharing the scanned document across multiple platforms such as email, on the cloud and third-party applications; thereby making it easier for employees to access information remotely.

The real benefit we are sharing today is in the form of scan to email. Generally we would scan the document and file it in a folder. If we didn’t get interrupted and sidetracked, we would then go back to our desk and find the folder and the file and create an email, attach the document and we are done.

With today’s advanced technology, your copier can be used as the email server. Simply select send by email, add the address, select the type of document (single or double side), and press send. The document is sent to the desired email address thereby eliminating the need to go to our desk, open our email client, and find the file and send by email.

Save Money on Printing

The Worst Printing Crimes – Are They Happening in Your Office?happy-printer sm

Little do most people know about the unspeakable printing crimes that are committed on a daily basis in offices around the globe.

Need some evidence?

Despite everybody seeming to strive for a paperless office, the research and advisory company GARTNER says the amount of paper produced by the average company is actually growing annually at a rate of 25% – far from a trivial offence! Here are the five big printing crimes your company might be committing this very second.

Is Your Company Spending Too Much On Printing?

 

Preventing Unnecessary Printing

To  prevent this type of criminal squander, you can define print profiles, or even restrict specific user profiles to print in black and white only. Also to further save, always print everything except the proof and final in draft mode.

You’ll save a ton of ink (and time) by setting Fast Draft or Draft Mode as the default option in the printer properties, so you won’t ever forget and send a long document to the printer in regular mode.

Don’t forget about software options too – shrink to fit to save that last orphan line from being an extra page.

Double Sided Printing tree hgger

You may save up to .04 a page by printing everything Duplex or Double Sided. Plus you will save paper – cutting your paper costs in half!

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the average office worker in the US prints 10,000 sheets of paper each year. This is equal to two boxes of paper.

A study at Chico State provided the following: savee money

During the 2008-2009 academic year approximately 12,600 reams of paper were printed using a desktop printer on campus. That is about $63,000 in paper costs per year. If double sided printing is used on campus this amount could be reduced by 50% and about $32,000 could be saved each year.

What could you be saving?

How to Save Money on Printing

Double sided printing saves resources and money.

Remember those days of waiting for a document to print so you can flip it over to print on the other side and wondering if it will it come out upside down and backward. The process of printing double sided has become a lot easier and less time consuming. Default printer settings can be set to duplex printing. Whenever you print, regardless of what program you are printing from or what type of document you are printing, your documents will automatically print on both sides.

And by acquiring the right devices and automatically redirecting certain kinds of documents to the most suitable for the job at hand, you can lower the costs of any MUST HAVE printout.
