Print and scan wirelessly
What should be in a modern office? Of course, computers, printers, fax machines, copiers, telephones. All this, as a spider’s web connected by a bunch of wires. Hide these cables are not always as "spider" cabinet does not look aesthetically pleasing. But it’s not so bad.
All these wires quite dangerous for humans and for technology. On them you can, for example, stumble. And imagine that the girl stumbled and fell on the heels. Such a fall can easily result in fractures.
Computers do not go around the office, at least for now, so that stretches through the study of the network cable they do not stumble.
However, the girl in stiletto in the fall can accidentally pull the cable and drop the table computer to which it is connected. For PC fall unpredictable results.
But these troubles can be easily avoided. It’s enough to give up cable networks and connect computers to the Internet, with each other and other devices using Wi-Fi.
Currently, wireless Wi-Fi quite widely used. They are built not only in large offices, but also in medium and small firms. Often, much cheaper and easier to put in the office of one or several access points, and using Wi-Fi technology to connect to them, and not to lay a system of cables.
Wi-Fi is particularly relevant for buildings of historical value. In these very difficult, or impossible, to pave the normal wired network.
Most users of Wi-Fi is associated only with wireless internet access. However, the international association of Wi-Fi Alliance has 320 members, among which is how the developers of network equipment and software vendors, and client devices.
And range of client devices is very large. It is not limited to phones, smartphones and laptops. Perhaps someone will be surprised, but Wi-Fi module is in the modern printers, scanners and MFP.
What gives the printer module Wi-Fi? In terms of technical toppings – additional detail. But this detail before the user opens great possibilities.
Let’s start with the fact that for the printer with Wi-Fi does not require any wires except the power cord. And that means it can be placed anywhere in the apartment or office, and not in places where falls short USB-cable.
But there is a scanner, fax and photocopier. With them, in the presence of Wi-Fi, everything is exactly the same: a network cable, the most convenient place to study and integration into a wireless network. But why clutter up the office when you can buy one universal harvester – IFIs.
Note that the IFIs with built-in Wi-Fi is much more common than monochrome laser printers. That may be about these printers will be much, but until they make only a few producers. One of the pioneers of this market — Japanese company Brother.
Russia representative Brother, OOO "Brother", currently offers several models of printers and MFPs with module Wi-Fi. One of them – MFC-7840WR.
Wi-Fi module had no effect on the appearance of this model. It is a typical MFP with hinged lid concealing a scanner, the resolution of which is 600h2400 points, a control panel with lots of buttons and two paper trays underneath.
For performance in its class, this model does not record, but for a small office fit perfectly. With print and copy speed of 22 pages per minute, it easily copes with all tasks. Fax memory built into the MFP, enough for 200 rooms. In short, the functional apparatus of this is consistent with its price – 14 thousand rubles.
MFC-7840WR can serve as a networked MFP, and individual. Despite the existence of the wireless module, nobody forbids to connect the device to a computer or integrated into a network via a cable. The most acceptable method of connection is selected at the time of installation.
Quite interesting additional opportunities MFC-7840WR of scanning, especially networking. MFC-7840WR retains scans, including locations, FTP-server and e-mail. In addition, the scanning can be performed directly in the program text recognition.
No less interesting is another jet Multifunction Brother with Wi-Fi – DCP6690CW. This is the world’s first multifunctional device to A3, which has no analogues. Its performance is also at altitude. In particular, view and edit photos before printing can be directly on the 4.2-inch touch screen DCP6690CW.
As already mentioned, the Brother is such rare device modules Wi-Fi, a monochrome laser printers. This model HL-2170WR and HL-5370DW. They represent the most common printers, with the only difference is that to work with them do not need any wire, except the network.
The company is currently conducting a special Brother promotion campaign Dedicated printers and MFPs with Wi-Fi. At the corresponding page can be found as to the proposed facilities, and with the companies participating this action. Most of them – Moscow’s online stores. For example, Dostavka.ru. Regionally, there is only one company – the dealer Brother in Stavropol "Business Technology".
