Sharp Earns Three Top Awards from Buyer’s Laboratory
Sharp Pro Series Color Document Systems and Cloud Portal Office Earn Outstanding Achievement in Innovation Awards
We are pleased to announce that Sharp has earned three Outstanding Achievement in Innovation awards from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI), the world’s leading independent evaluator of document imaging products and solutions.
BLI’s semi-annual awards are given to the hardware and software offerings judged to be the best in BLI’s comprehensive evaluations, which assess a wide range of the most important performance factors for buyers. Its Outstanding Achievement awards acknowledge products or capabilities that stand out for attributes such as innovation, usefulness, energy efficiency or value.
Sharp received Outstanding Achievement in Innovation awards for edge-to-edge printing as well as control panel integration with the EFI Fiery® Command Workstation® for the Sharp Pro Series MX-6500N and MX7500N Color Document Systems. We also received an Outstanding Achievement in Innovation award for our Cloud Portal Office document storage and sharing service.
Truly groundbreaking, our Sharp Pro Series innovative edge-to-edge printing feature allows operators to produce compelling in-line, full-bleed color booklets of up to 80 pages, helping reduce outsourcing costs and production time.
Our Sharp Pro Series control panel integration with EFI Fiery® Command WorkStation® is also breaking new ground within this market segment. This unique integration provides unmatched control and ease of use directly from the Sharp control panel for managing professional in-plant and busy on-demand printing.
Awarded the Outstanding Achievement in Innovation Award from BLI for its “intuitive, no fuss interface that follows workers wherever they go,” Sharp’s Cloud Portal Office document storage and sharing service is a cost effective content management solution that allows the increasingly mobile workforce to share information while simultaneously maintaining control over critical documents.
We’re proud to be recognized by BLI for our innovative and cutting edge solutions. These awards acknowledge our continued commitment to address the needs of our customers with innovative technology that truly keeps them competitive and productive.
To help get the word out and support your sales efforts, we are obtaining reprint rights for the BLI reports, certificates, and award medallions. Watch for availability of these materials on the Sharp-PC site.
