In its new whitepaper,
The Future of Work,
Samsung points out that
the enormous size of the smartphone market – a global installed base
of three billion devices by 2017 – is driving consumerisation of IT and
making the workplace the point of convergence for multiple device
types, irrespective of whether they are owned by an individual or
supplied by an employer.
On top of this, the greater functionality of smartphones has created an
expectation that content, including music, video, communications and social
media apps, and the tools we need to perform certain tasks should be available
on whatever device or screen we have in front of us at any particular moment.
This, says Samsung, is having a transformative effect on the workplace, where the
tools we use are becoming ever more mobile, smart and inter-connected.
These trends inform much of Samsung’s new product development and can
be seen clearly in the company’s new Android MFPs, the Smart MultiXpress
series, which has gone from concept design to a complete range in 12 months.
Launched at September’s IFA 2014 consumer electronics exhibition in Berlin,
the ten new MFPs are the first of their kind to be equipped with an Android
operating system. The combination of Android OS and Samsung’s Smart UX Center,
the same touch technology used in Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets,
provides a familiar user interface and a scalable platform for individual printer apps
– just like a smartphone. It also allows the printers to operate independently of a
PC with on-the-go connectivity through Samsung Cloud Print.
This, says Mark Ash, General Manager of Samsung Electronics’ Print Division
in the UK and Ireland, makes the Smart MultiXpress series ideal for the flexible
working practices employed by businesses today.
“With this new Android printer range we’re leveraging the strengths of our
heritage in consumer technology,” he said. “We live our lives around screens and
life in the main is without wires. Smartphones and tablets are the key enablers
Samsung is shaping its print offering to meet the
challenges of the office of the future.
Super smart,
