Something we’ve had the privilege of witnessing during our many years of serving the local community by providing high quality Xerox technology is the undeniable fact that Xerox actually listens to customer feedback and actively iterates on their products to provide the most functionality and efficiency.

A great example of this attention to the needs of the consumer was recently released in the form of the excellent Scan With Print App. In today’s post on the Southwest Office Solutions blog, we’ll examine this neat little time saver and go over a few use cases.

Let’s begin:

Let’s say that you’ve just scanned a document using your Xerox multifunction printer. Typically, if you needed an immediate printout of the document you just scanned, you had to take two steps: the initial process of scanning the document, and then making a copy of the document with it still in the bed. You could, of course, also locate the saved scan and print that, but it would take a bit longer and if you already have the original copy in the device already, why bother?

Either way, the process was more cumbersome than it needed to be. Even though it wasn’t a dramatic waste of time, waste is never a good thing—and people in offices the world over said to Xerox, “It sure would be nice if we could scan and print a document without going through these motions.”

Xerox listened, and now the Scan With Print App allows end users to do exactly that: scan a document, save that scanned document in the usual way they prefer, and immediately produce a printout of the document as well.

Why the Scan With Print App is a Truly Fantastic Time Saver

At first glance it may sound like the Scan With Print App isn’t a huge time saver—and perhaps on the surface you might not be wrong. It’s not a major upgrade, it won’t solve all of your problems, and you’ll still have to share your birthday cake with everyone else in the office this year.

But what it does do is shave off a few moments of having to perform a repetitive, unnecessary additional task to get your daily work done efficiently. And those moments, day after day, month after month, will absolutely add up. That means more time spent on doing the things that really matter—and that’s what Xerox technology is all about.
