Toshiba goes Android, now you can print and scan on Android phones and tablets..

-To enhance productivity for an increasingly mobile workforce, Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. (http://business.toshiba.com) today introduces its e-BRIDGE Print & Capture mobile software app, which supports all Android™ smartphone and tablet devices supporting version 2.3.3 (released in February 2011) or later.

The leading managed document services (MDS) provider and business printing solutions innovator’s free new app allows Android users to scan from and print to the company’s e-STUDIO™ multifunction products (MFPs) featuring its advanced e-BRIDGE technology.

Seamless scanning from an e-STUDIO product to an Android device and file sharing though other software applications is also possible. Users may additionally attach scanned files to email, share documents with other Android applications or upload files to a cloud storage support service such as Box.com, Google Drive, SkyDrive and Dropbox. Users may choose from a range of scanning formats including JPEG, TIFF and PDF.

The new e-BRIDGE Print & Capture app supports cloud-based data storage centers, allowing users to upload information into the cloud and retrieve it either on the mobile device or by printing the content on a Toshiba printing device. The new app also allows users to create a Quick Response (QR) code from an Android smartphone or tablet. Content stored on the mobile device may then be printed on any current Toshiba MFP affixed with this QR code.

“As the mobility of today’s workforce increases and BYOD becomes more of a standard than a trend, the importance of enabling employees to scan and print from a mobile device to a multifunction product is paramount,” said Bill Melo, vice president of marketing, services and solutions at Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. “Considering this new reality, the introduction of our e-BRIDGE Print & Capture now allows an organization’s personnel to work whenever and from wherever they are.”

e-BRIDGE Print & Capture is also compatible with Private Print and other user authentication applications. A download of Toshiba’s new mobile app is available on Google Play: http://bit.ly/16mGxgl.
