No problems were experienced with any of the test files used in the appli-

cations compatibility tests. Units are tested for compatibility on Windows
XP platforms with Microsoft Word 2000, PowerPoint 2000 and Excel 2000,
as well as Adobe PageMaker 7.0, Photoshop 6.0 and Acrobat 6.0, using 25
application test files that contain text, graphics, halftone images, tables,
etc., enabling BLI technicians to evaluate memory usage, file processing,
font rendering and grayscale capability.

The Aficio 3260C offers scan to e-mail, network folders via FTP or SMB, the

Document Server (the unit’s hard drive) and desktop management applica-
tions such as DeskTopBinder Lite.



Via the Document Server, copied, printed and scanned documents can be auto-

matically stored on one of the Aficio 3260C’s four 80-GB hard drives. Moreover,
users have the ability to store documents with a PIN, ensuring file integrity.



Users can preview scans for quality at the device before transmitting them

and view documents stored in the Document Server either in a list view or
as thumbnail images both at the unit and via Web Image Monitor.



DeskTopBinder Lite, which comes bundled with the CD containing the scan

driver, enables users to view, download and repurpose documents stored on
the hard drive. Furthermore, files stored in the Document Server can be sent
via e-mail.



Up to five LDAP servers can be enabled, with users being able to search by

name, fax number, e-mail address, company name and department name as
long as this information exists in the mail server.



In addition to directly selecting addresses from LDAP servers, addresses can

be programmed at the control panel, which features a QWERTY keypad.



It takes 18 keystrokes without a user name and password to perform a scan-

to-e-mail job to one destination using LDAP with a 300-dpi PDF file. Scanning
to two destinations increases the number of keystrokes to 19.



Users can set up a scan-to-e-mail favorites list.



Although the unit does not generate an error when sending to an e-mail

address that does not exist, a second job can be sent to an existing address
even though the first job is held.
