whitepaper Why MFPs Matter to IT - Part 1: Validating the Technology2008-08-01 Xerox
  On average, today's office workers spend as much as 45% of each day working with paper and electronic documents. Much of each workday is involved in sending and sharing information, whether by printing, copying, faxing or scanning. And for every dollar spent on assets, InfoTrends estimates that $9.40 is spent on soft costs, such as IT support, administration and document management. These costs add up quickly, especially if there are many types of network devices to maintain and manage. Today's workplace typically involves some combination of local printers, workgroup multifunction devices (MFPs) and the means to effectively manage them. The more varied the devices, the more costly is integration onto the network, especially if devices require complex point-to-point integration.   
whitepaper Print Consolidation - The Hidden ROI2008-07-31 SARCOM
  In the always evolving world of information technology, a constant is always difficult to find. But one factor will likely always remain constant: the need for a decent printer. Remember when everyone thought computers would eliminate the need for paper? It didn't happen. Most people would rather read from paper rather than strain their eyes reading text on a computer screen. People also enjoy the visceral touch and tangible feel of paper documents. Additionally, there will always be a need for certain types of documents: contracts, legal documentation, presentations, receipts and more. Because paper is here to stay, it makes sense for companies to maximize their ROI on printing, increase productivity, improve efficiency and reduce costs.

whitepaper Digital Video Surveillance: The Need for Purpose-Built Media Networks2008-07-14
  It's now clear that video surveillance systems are trending away from analog CCTV to all-digital platforms. The advantages of digital video surveillance - including the ability for authorities to view video immediately after an incident, from virtually any location and over existing networks - are essential to actionable intelligence and swift response. But it's one thing to transmit surveillance video over existing networks, and another thing entirely to expect an existing enterprise network to provide the supporting infrastructure for the digital video surveillance system itself. Accommodating the resource-intensive nature of digital video surveillance in any existing network poses significant challenges, in terms of both infrastructure expense and administrative complexity.
