With the expansion in use of USB memory sticks, a new world of information transport has come of age. Now, large quantities of information can be easily and quickly transferred to another terminal or system. USB sticks are also extremely useful in scanning, storing, and printing documents in an office environment.
With new multifunctional print and scan systems, scanning documents for storage and mobility can be as easy as making a copy. Documents can be scanned and saved on a memory stick at the point of scanning with the use of naming and folder options available on the LCD control panel of new Multifunction systems. Stacks of documents can be scanned securely and quickly to a memory stick, which can then be inserted into the port of a laptop or other office system, giving you instant access to important files.
Multifunction systems can scan documents to Adobe™ PDF format, which can be viewed on most any PC or Mac-based system. PDF files can also be “read” by OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software, giving an editable text document with original formatting still intact.
Memory sticks now have large enough capacity to hold tens of thousands of scanned documents. Having that much information mobile is helpful for many types of workers in differing situations, from the desk-based office worker, to the mobile representative, to the teacher in a classroom setting. Users can carry and access scanned documents immediately from virtually any computer, making handling of information truly portable.
