Do you know what an MFP is? It is a multifunction printer which can perform different tasks like photocopy, facsimile, scan, email exchange and all this apart from printing a huge number of documents with remarkable precision and clarity.
Thus multifunction printers have slowly emerged into one of the most viable options for big business houses keeping in mind their ever increasing demands. However, MFPs have also found their way into homes and small to medium sized business houses. This is primarily because of their unique features like superior quality, bankability, versatility, usability and small size which make them mandatory for those businesses which aim for an increased productivity and profitability. So instead of buying multiple devices, isn’t a novel idea to combine all into one which also reduces the footprint both in homes or a small business set up?

Furthermore, with US MFP market experiencing a whopping double-digit growth over the last several years, the signs are loud and clear. This is almost the end of the market for standalone units.
Some of the manufacturers of the multifunction printers include biggies like Kyocera, Copystar, Oki, Lexmark, Canon, Fellow Shredders………..the list is endless. As we all know the MFPs are the talk of the town. But Kyocera has launched a powerful solution which promises to optimize the performance of Kyocera’s award-winning MFPs with the help of customized and integrated software applications. All this is aimed at giving the business a completing new dimension through improved information sharing and resource optimization.

Now the most pertinent question that crosses the mind is which is the technology at work here? Known as HyPas, (Hybrid Platform for Advanced Solutions) it combines both Java and web based technologies that make the system capable of solving most complex business challenges. Although Java is normally used for mobile applications like cell phones, in this particular case it facilitates embedding applications and features within the multifunction printers itself.
