With an HP all-in-one (AIO), you get a whole lot of multi-tasking power in one small package, which makes it the perfect machine for the independent business owner who does it all.
What exactly is an all-in-one? It's one office product with the power of several. You can print, copy, fax and scan, giving you the flexibility and productivity a growing business needs.
Workhorse on staff
An HP all-in-one is like an employee who works around the clock and never slows down. Consider the benefits of having an all-in-one on your team:
•
Make multiple copies in a flash, reduce and enlarge copies, and automate repetitive tasks like collating documents.
•
Fax in color with automated features and settings for extra ease-of-use.
•
Scan old documents and make an archive of your paper files.
•
Use optical character recognition (OCR) software to save yourself the trouble of retyping long passages of text.
•
Print in brilliant color and crisp black and white using the same machine-no need to switch to another (color) machine when you want your document to look professional.
•
Create your own brochures, flyers and other powerful marketing tools in-house.
•
Make business cards, letterhead and other business documents as you need them. Never again waste money throwing away unused printed materials.
Plug and print
When you bring a new machine into your independent business, there's usually a little bit of anxiety about setting it up. With HP all-in-ones, there's no need to hook up several different machines because one machine can do it all. It's simple-one printer, one connection to the network, one setup. And getting it up and running is as easy as pressing a button.
The moneymaking power of color
Research shows that adding color to documents has a huge effect. "Color is the easiest and most effective way to increase the clarity of a document, " says Robert McCullough, president of McCullough Research.
We all know that color advertisements and flyers are more eye-catching than their black and white counterparts. And consider the difference in a graph or chart printed in color: It's much easier to differentiate a red line from a blue one than it is a light gray line from a dark gray one. Now you can get the high visibility of color printing with the low cost of doing it yourself.
An HP all-in-one combines brilliant color with productivity-enhancing features in a complete communications tool for your business. Not only can you scan and print in color with an all-in-one, but you can also make color copies and send faxes in color. And since you only need one machine to do it all, the savings are tremendous.
Picture the profits
As powerful as words can be, sometimes it takes a picture to make a point. People are more likely to take a real estate flyer that has a photo of a house on it than one with just a description. All-in-ones with photo-friendly features can also print pictures in standard sizes like 4 x 6, so your office machine can be a full-service digital photo lab as well.
