Your boss calls and asks you to send him a copy of a client proposal.
The only copy you have is on paper, and you’re in the back of a taxi.
Without needing a computer or even a power connection, you use the new Xerox
Mobile Scanner to scan the proposal to a PDF file and wirelessly
transfer it to your mobile phone. You then email it to your boss in
seconds.
Xerox
Corporation (NYSE: XRX) today announced the first battery powered
scanner that uses Wi-Fi to wirelessly transmit JPG images and multipage
PDF files from the scanner to computers, mobile phones, pads and the
cloud. Using a free mobile app, the device is able to communicate
wirelessly to a PC, Android®, Mac®, iPhone®,
iPad®, iPod® touch, or the Cloud.
Priced at only $249.99, the Xerox Mobile Scanner is a small (2” x 2.75”
x 11.5”) color scanner that includes a 4 GB Eye-Fi SD memory card,
carrying case, rechargeable battery and charger. Simple to use, simply
press the power button, select a file format (PDF or JPG) and insert the
document. The scanner’s patented AutoLaunch technology senses the page
and begins scanning.
"The Mobile Scanner provides a quick, convenient way to scan and share
documents when you’re on the go,” said John Capurso, vice president of
marketing at Visioneer, a Xerox licensing partner. "Untethering the
scanner and adding Wi-Fi reflects Xerox’s drive to make life easier for
the mobile worker.”
The maker of the world’s first wireless memory card, Eye-Fi (http://www.eye.fi)
was a collaborative partner in the development of the scanner. Eye-Fi’s
patented and patent-pending technology works with Wi-Fi networks to
automatically send photos from a digital camera to online, in-home and
retail destinations.
"The Xerox Mobile Scanner is the perfect capture device to work with our
technology. We loved the idea and immediately knew that we were helping
to design the future of mobile capture devices,” said Ziv Gillat, vice
president of business development at Eye-Fi, Inc.
Pricing, Availability
The Xerox Mobile Scanner has a U.S. list price of $249.99 and is available
immediately through retail and online channel partners, major resellers,
