OKI completes C9850 range with high-performance A3 colour Multifunction Product

Dubai-UAE, 29th December 2008 - OKI Printing Solutions, the leader in the global colour printing market, revealed recently its powerful C9850 MFP designed to ensure the smooth running of workflow in enterprises and medium-sized businesses. The C9850 MFP targets those who are looking for exceptional productivity, unmatched colour quality and real value.

At the heart of the C9850 MFP is its unique, embedded document distribution and management software - EFI SendMe. This system makes workflow processes more streamlined, by removing bottlenecks and generating greater business efficiency. In one-step, directly at the MFP, users can scan documents, edit them, add metadata as defined by each document management system(DMS), and send these directly to a DMS, such as Microsoft SharePoint. This one-step approach brings new levels of efficiency to office workflows, such as recording and approving invoices.

"The C9850 MFP strengthens OKI Printing Solutions' MFP offering. This smart MFP represents a revolution of the colour A3 MFP market with the provision of high quality, embedded management systems at a price this segment has not seen before. These systems ensure ease of use without compromising on the quality of output or functionality of the MFP." said John Ross, general manager, Middle East, India and North East Africa for OKI Printing Solutions,

"This is an exceptional MFP, providing businesses of all sizes with the functionality and flexibility they would normally expect from an outsourced printer company."

Built to meet the colour needs of even the most demanding businesses, the C9850 MFP can print up to 300gsm, oversized A3 and banners providing excellent media flexibility. In addition, users are able to use the 21cm touch-screen to perform basic editing tasks on scanned documents such as border removal, de-skew and de-speckle.

In addition to its document distribution and management software, the C9850 MFP also provides exceptional quality and consistent output, thanks to its colour management features. Tools such as the embedded EFI Fiery System 8e controller add an advanced level of colour printing compared to other MFP devices, making the C9850 MFP ideal for colour critical applications.

Ross added: "Together, the EFI SendMe and EFI Fiery System 8e controller ensure the smooth running of core business functions, giving employees more time to focus on other areas increasing their individual productivity and that of their business. As both systems are fully embedded, there is no requirement for additional IT applications and a minimal requirement in terms of IT staff support."
