Photocopiers

Photocopiers are becoming increasingly sophisticated offering:

• Duplexing - two-sided copying
• Networked - available as a network printer
• Scanner - documents can be scanned as JPEG images or PDF documents which can be stored on the copier or emailed or transferred to networked computers.
• On copier storage of documents.
• Integrated Fax facility
• Finishing Capability - collating, stapling even saddle stitching
• Booklet production
• Colour copying.

Issues to consider in making a decision to purchase a photo copier:

• cost, in financial and training (time)involved in the purchase.
• future issues Whether the increased sophistication and size of the copier will create difficulties for service and return of copier to supplier for major repair (an issue for remote sites).
• Application of simpler technology Whether simpler solutions may ultimately be more used eg manual stapling of sets of notes, using stand-alone scanners, using a laser printer for colour printing.

Important:

Consider the Generation Effect . Each stage in a publishing process usually results in degeneration and loss of resolution in both text and image.
