Welcome to the digital age with Hewlett-Packard's HP 9100C Digital Sender. This desktop device looks a printer/scanner combination, but it is a communication device that converts paper documents into digital information to be sent by email. The HP 9100C Digital Sender sends documents at the price of email, the speed of a fax, with the quality of an overnight-expressed original. Send almost any paper-based information - documents, brochures, contracts, medical images or billing, whether monochrome or color.

The documents are compressed and converted to PDF or TIFF files. Once the transmission is completed, the information can be reformatted, edited, printed or even stored by the receiving party. Documents can be sent to different people in different locations - at the same time. Plus information can be sent directly to a recipient's PC for transmission of sensitive information.

The 50-page automatic document feeder is handy for unattended transmission of multi-page documents such as draft reports or contracts. The pre-installed HP JetDirect EIO internal print server supports Token Ring network connections. The HP 9100C installs quickly without modifications to systems or extra user training. The device is also simple to use. Documents are loaded into the automatic document feeder, the send-to address is entered or selected from a list, and the send button is pushed.
