Lanier Introduces Two Powerful Digital Multifunction Products for Small Offices and Midsize Workgroups.

LD335 and LD345 Offer Digital Copying, Network Printing, Scanning, Faxing, Finishing

ATLANTA -- Lanier Worldwide, Inc. today launched the Lanier LD335 and LD345 digital multifunction products (MFPs). Both deliver 35 or 45 black-and-white pages per minute for digital copying and network printing with 600 dpi resolution. Scanning is standard, and options include faxing and finishing. The systems will be available immediately.

"In today's fast-paced environments, end-users need to be able to produce high-quality documents quickly and deliver them efficiently -- across the office and around the world," said Dominic Pontrelli, vice president of Marketing for Lanier. "The Lanier LD335 and LD345 provide all the technology to realize these goals and achieve very high productivity."

Three configurations are available for each model. The stand-alone copier produces up to 35 or 45 pages per minute. The scan/print version adds 35 or 45 ppm network printing and a long list of scanning features, including scan-to-email, scan-to-folder, scan-to-NCP, and scan-to-URL. Finally, an RPCS-only print controller offers cost-effective network printing. Both print-ready models also offer optional Super G3 and IP faxing.

"These two versatile systems are ideal for small offices, midsize workgroups, and departments with up to 100 users," Pontrelli said.

Security features include Microsoft[R] Windows[R] network authentication, Hold Print, Stored Print, and a detailed job log. The RPCS print driver also offers Copy Guard Protection, which renders output from these systems illegible if unauthorized users attempt to copy documents on a similarly enabled device.
