PLANO, Texas (August 27, 2002) — Muratec America, Inc., manufacturer of multifunction office equipment and business productivity solutions,
announces today that the F-560 has earned “Pick of the Year” status in the high-volume fax category from Buyers Laboratory.
The F-560 was the first Muratec multifunction device to feature the Network Gateway Platform (NGP).
This NGP-enabled device offers seamless document on-ramping to the network, making it an outstanding
workgroup scanning solution for companies that have incorporated a document management solution into
their workflow. A unique twist to the F-560 is the incorporation of a touchscreen, which allows users to easily
deliver documents to network folders, e-mail addresses, FTP sites and fax terminals.
"The Muratec F-560 rises above the competition with its superior ease of use and multitasking capabilities,"
said Paul Depaolo, BLI senior test engineer. “This model is one of only a few fax-based MFPs to offer a touchscreen,
which greatly enhances ease of use because the control panel is uncluttered. The touch screen also makes it easy to
use the standard Network Gateway Platform scanning system because it provides one-touch access to scan to e-mail, folders and FTP."
“Muratec is extremely honored that Buyers Laboratory has chosen the F-560 as a Pick of the Year recipient," said Yutaka Moriwaki,
president of Muratec America, Inc. “Buyers Laboratory is one of the most respected analysts in our industry and it is very gratifying
to be recognized for such an honor. Our strategic planning and engineering departments deserve a great deal of credit for developing
a product that has set new standards in innovation, reliability and customer usability.”
