Xerox Print Driver Platform Xerox Global Print Driver Xerox Mobile Express Driver
Executive Summary
Xerox Corporation developed a breakthrough print driver platform that significantly reduces costs and increases the efficiencies of enterprise printer management and support. This new platform has changed the way that IT administrators view and manage enterprise print drivers.
Our core driver platform (the key component of this new strategy), helps make you more productive by streamlining the user interface and ensuring a consistent experience across the majority of our product lines. This consistency has greatly simplified print services delivery and reduced end- ser training and support requirements, and lowered the cost of IT print services as a result.
Two of the most innovative print drivers built on the new platform, the Xerox Global Print Driver and Xerox Mobile Express Driver, have been upgraded:
- Xerox Global Print Driver (X-GPD) is a universal print driver that offers unprecedented ease of use for network administrators managing a diverse array of print devices across the enterprise. It greatly reduces the time and effort required to deploy and upgrade print drivers on a network.
- Xerox Mobile Express Driver (X-MED) allows mobile professionals to quickly and easily find and use printers in any new location, without timeconsuming driver installation and costly support calls.
Unlike proprietary “universal” print drivers, X-GPD and X-MED support both Xerox and non-Xerox printers, which is an important advantage for IT managers administering the typically diverse mix of print devices on today’s enterprise networks. These drivers also support 100 percent of the feature sets of most Xerox printers.

Xerox Works with KANA to Better Serve Global Customer Base
Overview
Xerox Corporation selected KANA IQ with KANA Response for its global Welcome Centers. The KANA solution provides customer service call center representatives with automated tools and information to better handle customer issues through assisted service.

Versatile Flatbed Scanner “Breaks Rules” to Provide Cost Effective Solution for Scanning Large Documents
PLEASANTON, Calif. — Scanners that use automatic document feeders (ADF) are convenient but office workers can’t use them for fragile documents or bound items such as books or passports. To help, Xerox (NYSE: XRX) today introduced the Xerox DocuMate® 4700, an A3 (11x17”) sized flatbed scanner with a built-in USB hub which allows it to be used as a stand-alone device or connected through any Xerox DocuMate sheet fed scanner. At only $795, the DocuMate 4700 is an affordable solution for large document scanning.
This design helps businesses avoid the expense of a having to buy a large format ADF/flatbed combination scanner. Other A3 flatbed scanners on the market today are sold as options that can only be connected to a sheet fed scanner and require a sheetfed scanner that must be specifically designed to work with the flatbed option. The DocuMate 4700 breaks both of these rules, costs much less than competitors and can be shared among co-workers.
