How often have you hit “Print” on your computer only to find there is an error message on the other end of the printer? Then, after wasting time trouble-shooting, you reluctantly find out that the USB cord simply needed to be unplugged and re-plugged to fix the problem. Sound familiar?

This is just one of the many scenarios where printers fail to cooperate, specifically in the business setting when printing is vital in ensuring employees’ day-to-day productivity. Computer printing technology hasn’t always been reliable, but printing giant, Xerox, looks to change the path of printing for business.

The new Xerox Phaser printer was designed with our technology driven world in mind, and boasts wireless capabilities that integrate with your mobile device. That means you can turn the printer on and off from your smart phone, print a document without having to connect your computer to the office printer, and can even print an important last minute change from your phone at while at lunch and still have it ready for that presentation later in the afternoon.

Aside from obvious advantages like conserving and saving time and office space, the new mobile enabled Xerox devices are just another example of technology that is helping to shape the Internet of Things. We’ll soon be able to control just about everything around us from the convenience of our mobile phones.

Mobile enabled devices requires the sending and receiving of important documents over the internet, making it of the utmost importance for businesses who use such technology to follow and teach employees best security practices.
