Improve flexibility with new printing and scanning products
The HP Officejet 150 Mobile All-in-One is the world’s first mobile all-in-one printer and an ideal companion for business professionals who need a compact, durable solution for printing, scanning and copying while on the go. It features built-in wireless Bluetooth for printing from select notebooks and smartphones and a long-lasting lithium-ion battery that provides enough power to print up to 500 pages on a full charge.

The HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401 is HP’s first web-connected mono single-function laser printer, and the HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425 is HP’s first web-connected mono laser multifunction printer (MFP). Both feature advanced connectivity that meets the expanding needs of fast-paced SMB environments, including HP ePrint and HP Wireless Direct, which allow employees to more easily stay connected and productive while out of the office. In addition, the 8.89 cm touchscreen control panel allows users to manage print functions and access business applications directly from the device.

The high-quality colour HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 color MFP M575 and the black-and-white HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 feature a larger 20.32 cm full-colour touchscreen with HP Quick Sets for one-touch workflows. HP Quick Sets include send-to options directly on the control panel and allow users to preview, edit and zoom images for accurate results. HP FutureSmart 2 firmware enables businesses to simplify software updates and centrally manage tasks across their entire fleet with HP Web Jetadmin. As with the HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401 the HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425, users can now print from virtually anywhere with HP ePrint and Apple AirPrintTM, and reduce energy use with HP Auto-On/Auto-Off Technology, which automatically turns the printer off when not in use.(4) HP printers are designed to work with Original HP supplies as a finely tuned print system that delivers high-quality text and true-to-life colour documents with every page printed. Designed for optimal performance with minimal environmental impact, Original HP supplies offer superior reliability, which reduces the need to reprint, and many cartridges are made from recycled plastic.

The HP Scanjet Enterprise 7000 s2 has a compact, desktop design with HP Precision Feed and HP AccuPage technologies to ensure flawless and efficient performance, while the ability to “Scan to Sharepoint” and “Scan to Cloud” extends its capabilities beyond the desktop.

Manage information with HP Workflow Solutions
New mobile printing solutions include HP ePrint Software, which enables PC printing to HP ePrinters at home or at work, and to HP ePrint Public Print Locations (PPL) for workers on the go. HP ePrint App for Apple and BlackBerry enhances and replaces the popular HP ePrint Home & Biz App. The Universal Email Address for HP ePrint PPLs allow HP’s large PPL network to publish and promote a single email address for mobile print jobs. Any end user with an email-capable device can send a print job to the email address and retrieve the print job at any of the PPLs.

To simplify workflows, HP Capture and Route provides a cost-effective way to digitise information so customers can find and retrieve documents faster than ever before. The HP Capture and Route solution enables users to easily convert paper documents into a variety of digital formats—including JPG, Microsoft® Word .doc and .docx, PDF, TIF, and RTF—making it simple to find information where it is needed, using just one button.

HP and Kofax Communication Server is a centralised communications platform that ensures reliable exchange of business-critical messages among applications, devices, and people. Additionally, customers can identify, track and log senders and recipients of incoming and outgoing email, SMS, MMS, voice and fax.

To ease manageability of the printing infrastructure, HP Jetdirect 2700w USB Wireless Print Server provides high-speed wireless printing plus advanced enterprise-class security, enabling customers to place printers wherever needed, without wires.

HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 provides enhanced performance, improved workflow management and additional device support for more control and ease of use. This fleet-management application is available at no additional cost, and is used for installing, configuring, troubleshooting and managing networked and PC-connected MFPs, printers and scanners.

Improve peace of mind with HP Security Solutions
Printing security is simplified with HP Imaging and Printing Security Centre, an industry first in security management, which provides policy-based security for HP printing fleets. It now also includes broader HP enterprise device support, enhanced fleet risk reporting, improved usability and HP Instant-On Security, which secures devices as soon as they are added to the network. The solution is now available for purchase through HP Managed Enterprise Solutions and HP Partner Document Solutions Specialists.

In addition, HP Access Control Printing Solutions has newly added features, including server-less pull printing, which lowers costs; dual-factor authentication, which adds an additional level of security; and the ability to send prints via email, which increases productivity.
