Let's Not Forget the Old Saying, "Garbage In, Garbage Out"
Summary: Doc points out an informative video about working with the document software, “Laserfiche.”
When you have thousands or even millions of existing printed documents that you need to scan into electronic form, you really can’t afford to take a lot of chances. And Doc says you have to be sure that whatever high-speed scanning device and software you use it is compatible with your IT systems. Nobody wants to go through scanning a mountain of documents twice.
Here’s an informative video from our friends at Ricoh about how they work with the document software “Laserfiche,” which helps you capture and convert a huge variety of printed documentation.

Doc
ZDNet introduces Doc (The DocuMentor), sponsored by RICOH. Through his blog, Doc will educate you about Document Management. So who is Doc? Doc is something of an enigma. He was born to a Russian ballerina and a German electrical engineer who some believe was running covert operations for shadowy corporate interests. Doc grew up in various locations in the United States, although no one seems to know precisely where, least of all Doc. His early schooling was unremarkable except for the time he was caught trying to replace all the mimeograph machines with high-tech color copiers that had mysteriously disappeared from a shipment to Albania. At MIT, he made a name for himself by transforming a large printer into a robot that hunts and eats Roombas. Professionally, he reportedly has seen the insides of more brands, versions, and generations of printer and printer-related hardware than almost anyone. Some say his obsession with paper, printing, and mechanical movement was either started by, or evidenced by, a traumatic childhood episode when he crawled inside an old Xerox 2400 and tried to print himself.
Anyway, Doc has hands on experience with stuff like printer maintenance and fleet management, but his mastery of document management leaves no stone unturned. Important issues like sustainability, security, and regulatory compliance are top of mind for Doc, as are other business technology needs like networking and IT services, making him a true blue IT renaissance man.
