[Lake Success, NY – February 17, 2009]
Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging and office solutions, and emFAST Inc., a pioneer in network fax messaging, today announced the integration of emFAST's FACSys Fax Messaging Gateway application with Canon's advanced Multifunctional Embedded Application Platform (MEAP) enabled imageRUNNER line of multifunction printers (MFPs).

Since pioneering the embedded MFP software development platform with the launch of MEAP in 2003, Canon has been collaborating with leading third-party software vendors, customers and dealers to develop custom MEAP-based applications that simplify the interaction between end-users and Canon devices, while being customized to fit a user's specific workflow. The new MEAP version of the emFAST FACSys Fax Messaging Gateway, a network fax server application, will allow users to fax documents directly from Canon imageRUNNER MFPs. Users no longer have to wait at the MFP for confirmation of their fax transmissions since FACSys will send the notification directly to the user’s desktop. Users can also resend or redirect failed message transmissions directly from the desktop.

In addition, sensitive faxes will no longer be forgotten in the print tray as users can access their FACSys Inbox directly from the touch screen of the Canon imageRUNNER device to print the document while they are there to receive it.

Finally, using the FACSys Connector for Canon MEAP enabled imageRUNNERs ensures that all transmissions are captured and recorded for the purpose of compliance by providing necessary details and audit logs and storing the sent or received fax image for retrieval.
