the right supplies are available at the right
time, all of which adds up to time and cost
savings.
“This will reduce the number of service
calls from customers and on-site visits
that engineers need to make, and provide
dealers with the ability to proactively fix a
fault, before the customer has reported it,”
Mills said.
Cloud and mobile
All e-BRIDGE Next devices support cloud
and mobile printing. e-BRIDGE Plus
connectors for Microsoft OneDrive, Google
Drive and Dropbox provide direct access to
cloud services and enable documents to be
sent to or printed from the users’ service of
choice or via the MFP. In addition to cloud
functionality, all devices can easily connect
to mobile devices, supporting AirPrint,
Google Cloud Print or the Mopria Print
Service.
“This new cloud connectivity and
availability of a number of free to
download apps is another value-add for
our dealers,” said Mills.
A single optional module for both
wireless LAN and Bluetooth allows fast
and easy transmission of data from mobile
devices to the system by supporting
peer-to-peer communication. Additionally,
the Wi-Fi-direct function is enhanced
when used in combination with Toshiba’s
e-BRIDGE Print & Capture app. Once
downloaded from the app store, users can
print and scan to a mobile device.
The optional multi-station print feature
allows individuals to decide where they
want to print within the network, without
the need for a server.
Security as standard
Toshiba’s security measures address access
security, document security and device
security. Various authentication features
provide full control over who has access
to documents and devices, ensuring that
business-critical data remains confidential
and secure.
The e-BRIDGE Next systems support the
use of card readers, users can authenticate
themselves at the device by swiping an ID
card or alternatively, individual passwords
or pin numbers can be set up.
The Toshiba Secure HDD is built in
as standard, it works with a 256-bit
AES encryption in real-time and stores
the encryption key on the HDD itself.
Furthermore, the HDD knows which device
it has been built into and will only share
information stored with this device after
an authentication process. If the HDD is
removed and connected to another MFP
or PC, the encryption key will be deleted
automatically.
A greener future
Toshiba TEC’s on-going commitment
to create a greener future is reflected
in the design and development of the
new printing solutions. Lower energy
consumption and advanced energy save
functions are key benefits.
The systems comply with leading
environmental programmes and standards
such as ENERGY STAR and Blue Angel and
additionally, all devices in the new range
are delivered carbon neutral as part of
Toshiba’s Carbon Zero Scheme.
Launched in 2009, the initiative helps
end-users to reduce their environmental
impact by offsetting all the carbon generated
from manufacturing to customer delivery.
Carbon offsetting allows for the
investment in projects that save the emission
of, or absorb an equivalent amount of CO2
to that of any Toshiba product’s footprint.
Through this process, emissions are balanced
to become ‘Carbon Zero’ which allows
for positive business activities with no
detrimental effect to the environment.
Up until the end of December last year,
Toshiba TEC UK has offset 92,069 tonnes
of CO2 emissions, which equates to the
equivalent of 66,716 transatlantic flights,
lighting 1,438,578 energy saving light
bulbs for an entire year, powering 11,803
homes with electricity for one year or
taking the train from London to Edinburgh
and back 1,534,483 times.
“We will also shortly launch an online
impact report resource that will enable
dealers proposing a fleet to produce a
summary for customers that details the
CO2 reduction and CSR benefits for that
specific deal,” Mills said. “We see this as
an additional value-added resource that
will support our partners in winning new
business,” he concluded.
