Managing your office's printing environment probably isn't the most exciting part of your day. But when it doesn't run smoothly? It's a problem that gets everyone talking, and not in a good way.

Submitted by Keith Metzler on

Many companies still rely on physical printing for day-to-day operations. But with Microsoft changing how printing works in Windows, IT teams and office managers are left scrambling to figure out how to keep their devices running.

At Strategic Technology Partners of Texas, we’ve been working with Xerox for nearly 40 years. So when Microsoft announces a change that could impact every Xerox device in a Windows environment, we’re not just paying attention, we’re here to make it easier for you to understand what’s happening, and what you need to do.

How the Xerox App Gallery Stands Out from Other Printer App Platforms

Submitted by Keith Metzler on

It’s safe to say printers have always had a bit of a bad rep. Everyone thinks they’re slow, expensive, and stuck in the past. While that’s not totally off-base, things are changing. Modern printers, especially those equipped with ConnectKey® technology, are even more powerful when paired with the right apps.

Did you know that Xerox printers can scan directly into SharePoint? Or automatically redact sensitive information? Or simplify printing without needing to call IT? Most people don’t. And that’s partly because office tech still makes you jump through hoops. Even when printer manufacturers offer “apps,” they’re often clunky, limited, or too basic to make a real difference.
