Industry Roundtables

Attendees broke into three industry focus sessions (education, insurance, government/utilities) for informal discussions of common problems. Among the discussions held by the education group was one on the value of copier management programs. Those who have implemented them extolled their virtues and urged the others to do a study of current copier costs and show it to accounting. This led to a discussion on the benefits of multifunction devices over standard copiers. One manager said her college fell in love with the scan-to-e-mail feature.
