Whether you work from your home office full time or only occasionally when you work remotely from the office, having certain amenities can make your experience much more pleasant.
One of the nicer things to have for your home office is the ability to scan documents, either from a dedicated scanner or a small multifunction printer. The latter of the two is often preferable for home offices, especially if you need the devices other functionalities, since it can save you quite a bit of space.
In today’s Preferred Document Solutions blog post, we’ll make the case for why it’s so great to get document imaging (scanning) set up for your home office, and tell you about one of our favorite budget-friendly Xerox MFPs to do it with.
Let’s begin:
Ready, Set, Scan: How Document Imaging Boosts Efficiency in a Home Office Environment
Imagine not having to deal with stacks of paper cluttering your workspace—for some of us, it’s a dream come true! Now imagine that you can also enjoy heightened security for your documents, easier digital collaboration, automatic organization, version control… the list of benefits is practically endless.
If you work remotely, it’s great to be able to quickly scan a document, send it to your colleagues back at the office, and collaborate on it together. If you fly solo, having all your documents digitally stored means you can access them from anywhere, at any time. Need to reference a contract while you’re out meeting a client or traveling? No problem–just pull it up on your phone or laptop.
Document imaging adds a level of convenience and functionality to your home office that, once you have it, you’ll never want to be without.
Why the Xerox C235 Is a Fantastic Multifuction Printer for Home Office Scanning Projects
The Xerox C235 is a budget-friendly, “right sized” (A.K.A., space-friendly) multifunction printer ideal for home offices and small teams of up to about five people. It’s ConnectKey-enabled, which means that it will work with apps from the Xerox App Gallery, and sports some very impressive specs for a small-scale MFP. Wi-Fi printing, mobile printing, and a rapid 24 ppm output of crisp color or monochrome documents makes it an excellent choice.
Scanning with the C235 in your home office is a great experience. Most home offices have limited desk space, so an all-in-one unit like the C235 frees up valuable space, scans quickly, and gives you access to Xerox apps and integrations—for example, you might choose to have your scans uploaded directly to your cloud storage platform of choice, such as DocuShare Go or Office 365. You can even install the Xerox Print & Scan Experience App for neat features like auto-cropping and auto-straightening for your digitized documents.
