Xerox Extensible Interface Platform™ (EIP)
Xerox EIP is a software platform inside the WorkCentre 7425/7428/7435 devices that
enables personalized solutions users can access right from the device touch screen. These
applications can leverage existing databases and meet your specific business challenges.
Users benefit from simplified and personalized workflows:
•
Simplified user experience. A user can swipe his or her company ID badge at the device,
and an EIP solution can present user-specific print jobs, workflows and settings on the
touch screen.
•
New employees become productive immediately. For example: Instead of needing to
learn a complex order fulfillment sequence, they simply scan in a paper order, press a
button on the touch screen, and the EIP application correctly routes the order.
Get more out of your hardware and infrastructure investment:
•
EIP applications leverage existing databases and systems. This two-way communica-
tion allows users to query your company's databases and choose the appropriate
customer or project folder when storing a scanned document.
•
Reduce abandoned print jobs and increase productivity. Send documents to a virtual
queue and an EIP application can let users log onto any available device on the net-
work to print a job.
IT professionals enjoy ease of integration:
•
Managing applications across a fleet of devices is easy. Administrators can make
updates at the server level and those changes become live on all EIP-devices on the
network, regardless of location or product model, eliminating the need to load software
on each individual device.
•
Use active directory to provide various departments and groups access to certain
features and personalized scanning workflows.
In-house developers can tailor applications to address unique needs:
•
Build user-friendly touch screen interfaces that work the way your business works.
•
EIP is based on web standards such as HTML, CSS, XML and JavaScript, speeding
programming and making new application development fast and easy.
