Newfield IT has added a
new module to its Asset
DB Managed Print Services
(MPS) toolset bringing greater
efficiencies to MPS providers
and their customers.
As well as enabling a sales
person to conduct audits using
an iPad or Android tablet with a
3G connection, WebSmart can
be used by the customer to view
and add comments to future
state design proposals created
in the core Asset DB application.
It can also be used by the
customer for remote data
collection, saving the MPS
provider the cost and time of
sending someone to collect
information on a small number
of devices.
Robert Newry, managing
director of NewField IT,
said: “Asset DB
WebSmart is another
exciting development for the
toolset that further broadens
the use of the application, which
is already used by 1500 MPS
professionals in 17 different
countries.”
It runs on all key web
browsers and is compatible with
multiple operating systems.

Refresh for i-SENSYS
Canon has refreshed its
i-SENSYS range of A4 laser
devices with the launch of
two mono network MFPs (the
23ppm i-SENSYS MF4700
and 25ppm MF4800), two
entry-level 18ppm mono
laser printers (the i-SENSYS
LBP6020 and LBP6020B)
and a high end 25ppm laser
fax (the i-SENSYS FAX-L410).
Reflecting changing
customer requirements,
the new models come with
numerous time and cost-
saving features, including
WiFi connectivity; one-touch
function keys to speed
up scanning and copying
workflows; fast first page out
times of just 5.8 seconds
on the MFPs; low energy
consumption; a one-touch
‘Paper Save Copy’ function;
and a new quiet mode, which
reduces noise levels to 45dB
by lowering the print speed.

Home office users are the
target market for Brother’s
new mono laser 3-in-1
MFP (print, copy, colour
scan). The combination of
a compact footprint and
wireless connectivity makes
the DCP-7055W suitable
for environments where
space is in short supply and
there is less freedom in the
positioning of equipment.
Wireless connectivity also
allows users to print from
tablets and smartphones
using Brother’s iPrint&Scan
app. The DCP-7055W costs
£149.99 inc VAT.

New software that integrates
scan and print management
has been launched by print
management solutions
provider OCM International.
OCM Scantraq is a one-
touch, end-to-end solution
that integrates with existing
applications and equipment,
including OCM’s embedded
secure print, cost recovery and
client billing print management
solutions.
OCM International CEO Peter
O’Farrelly said: “Companies
are increasingly under
pressure to examine corporate
expenditures in an effort to
remain operationally profitable.
Asset DB on a tablet
By utilising OCM Scantraq,
companies have a single point
of contact for embedded print
and scan management, which
can offer a wealth of hidden
cost saving opportunities.”
OCM Scantraq enables
end users to integrate paper
documents into information
workflows by converting them
into searchable, digital files that
can be routed and stored using
one of the many connectors
supplied, including Google
Docs, Microsoft Sharepoint and
scan-to-email.
It can also automate
business processes based on
data contained in barcodes,
document zones and marks
by extracting this information
automatically and feeding
it into business systems,
databases and scripts.
The software supports
OCM’s Single Sign On and is
compatible with hundreds
of desktop scanners and
MFPs including models from
Samsung, Sharp, Kyocera,
Ricoh and Xerox.
