Installing and deploying
a fleet of multifunction systems throughout your organisation is a potentially time
consuming and complicated process. This process is not limited to physically placing the units in your
environment, it is about how these systems will integrate into your
existing network infrastructure
. You also
need to consider the process required to
deploy printing and scanning services
to your users, and how
automated that process can be.
Easy to Install
When you choose Xerox, you can rest assured that your equipment will be delivered and installed
to your specifications and expectations. All network enabled configurations include an embedded
10/100 BaseT Ethernet connection with innovative features like auto IP addressing, device
naming and Ethernet speed sensing to provide a simple and automatic installation onto your
networks. Management and system setup can be accomplished through a variety of means,
including the easy and wizard-based process found within Xerox CentreWare
®
Web. Additionally,
the WorkCentre 7228/7235/7245 series can ingrate with third party management applications like
Unicenter
®
TNG, Tivoli
®
NetView
®
, Microsoft
®
Management Console, and HP OpenView.
Easy to Deploy
Another critical area to evaluate is the process by which you can deploy drivers for the print and scan
services to your user population. Print and scan drivers can be deployed centrally – keeping your IT
staff from having to walk from desk to desk manually installing new drivers. In many cases, existing
Xerox drivers on your network will be able to work with your new hardware, potentially saving the
step of updating your users’ driver software altogether. Again, wizards are provided within CentreWare
Web to aid in the process of installing, troubleshooting, and upgrading your users’ driver software,
freeing up your IT staff for more pressing projects.
