Transforming paper documents into electronic format using conventional information equipment has always been a highly mundane and time-consuming task. To overcome this issue, it was necessary to create an office infrastructure in which anyone could quickly transform paper documents into electronic form, with user-friendly equipment capable of processing the information on a network.

ApeosPort C6550 / C5540 was developed as an information system specifically tailored to achieve these goals. In addition to incorporating superb copying speed of 65 ppm in monochrome and 50ppm in colour and impressive resolution of true 2,400dpi, ApeosPort C6550 / C5540 are empowered with the 5 intelligent services – Document Flow Service, Management Service, Sercurity Service, Customise Service and Mobile Services to improve workflow, increase productivity, protect your intellectual property and yet save you on costs.



With this system, users can access the internet directly and transfer documents saved on a network. All this can be accompanied by way of the large-size control panel (optional) without the need for a computer. In other words, digital multifunction machines used as document handling equipment in the office can function as "portals" to a network thanks to the new technology. This broadens the information utilisation spectrum and makes changes in the office and work style possible. The user interface is easy to use, can be highly customised and simplified to enhance work efficiency.

It also strengthens links with the system of other companies, so users can connect to the office systems of their strategic partners. For instance, it is possible to connect data-processing systems for another company's mission-critical operations such as manufacturing, sales and accounting with multifunction machines that handle paper documents such as contracts and bill-payment receipts. By doing so, it resolves management dilemmas regarding information systems.

Fuji Xerox plans to continually enhance the Apeos lineup in the future to satisfy the collaborative business demands of the open work environment.
