Business Intelligence, Process Management and
Mobile Productivity Solutions Enhance the Way Firms Do Business
Recognizing technology’s impact upon the success of today’s
legal industry, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, will demonstrate its comprehensive suite of document
solutions for the legal market at ILTACON 2015. According to the
International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) 2014 Technology
Purchase Survey,1 62 percent of law firms spend more than $8,000 on
technology per attorney each year. To help legal professionals
maximize their return on investment and enhance productivity, Canon
will showcase solutions that can deliver actionable intelligence
for firms of all sizes at Booth #301/303, Caesar’s Palace from
September 1-3.
A Business Intelligence Strategy
Legal practices are under pressure to not only improve
performance, but also to reduce costs. The 2014 ILTA Tech Survey2
found 47 percent of legal professionals have yet to use a business
intelligence solution, an effective tool to help firms drive
efficiency and savings. Utilizing the insight from a business
intelligence solution can help firms build transparency into their
practice’s workflow, allowing administrators to be more proactive
and respond with a greater deal of agility to the industry’s
trends.
Canon’s broad portfolio of solutions for the legal sector
includes robust multifunction systems with sophisticated metrics
capture and reporting capabilities. The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE
product line is designed to integrate seamlessly with uniFLOW, a
comprehensive and scalable solution that provides enterprise class
metrics and detailed reports and analysis. uniFLOW helps firms by
capturing costs associated with billable activities such as print
and copy and assign charges to the appropriate customer or project.
The same data collected for cost recovery can also contribute to
more extensive trend analysis and forecasting to help firms build
their strategy.
To help legal professionals manage their document solutions
investments, Canon will showcase its portfolio of solutions
designed to help pinpoint workflow bottlenecks and areas of
inefficiency relating to hardware placement and document workflow.
Canon offers Managed Document Services (MDS) and imageCLASS
Printonomics programs to assist organizations in effectively
managing fleets of any size within large, mid-sized or small firms.
Providing administrators with the tools to more effectively manage
deployed devices, firms can easily provide detailed reports
containing analysis and graphic representations these analytic
tools help firms identify opportunities for cost reduction and
improved asset utilization.
Process Management for Workflow Optimization
Canon understands the time constraints faced by legal
professionals and knows firms require solutions that help eliminate
time-consuming business processes. Document scan and print
integration is a workflow optimization strategy that can help firms
save time and transform documents into productive content.
Canon offers a variety of solutions to help law firms streamline
case preparation, collaborate with their associates and integrate
with some of the most commonly used document management systems.
For broader workflow capabilities, uniFLOW extends its print, copy
tracking and user authentication features to support integration,
document capture and workflow processing capabilities being
integrated with various third-party document management solutions
such as iManage Work™, OpenText™, SharePoint™ and Box™.* Legal
professionals using the WorldoxTM document management system can
leverage the Scan to Worldox MEAP application to automate scanning
documents with FollowMe favorites from imageRUNNER ADVANCE devices,
as well as select imageFORMULA document scanners that can send
documents to Worldox with the touch of a button3. In addition to
Worldox scanning capabilities, imageFORMULA document scanners offer
industry standard ISIS/TWAIN drivers to integrate smoothly with
third-party applications, including Evernote® and Google Docs™.*
The models can also handle legal-sized documents with ease,
providing Bates stamping and other functions helpful to legal firms
when sharing information in electronic format.
Maximizing Mobile Productivity
On average, firms manage thousands of legal briefs per month and
often need immediate access to upload documents to various court
systems across the country. The sleek imageFORMULA Scan-tini Mobile
Document Scanner is a powerful, lightweight device that
conveniently fits on a desktop or in a briefcase to help legal
professionals scan on-the-go. The imageFORMULA models can also
wirelessly3 scan documents to mobile devices using the Canon
CaptureOnTouch mobile app.4

device usage and document output, Canon offers the uniFLOW Mobile
Printing application. This powerful application integrates mobile
device usage into a firm’s overall output management solution,
enabling firms to enact control over which users can submit
document output from select mobile devices, while also requiring
user authentication to print.
The newly announced CanonPRINT Business App, compatible with
imageCLASS and imageRUNNER and imageRUNNER ADVANCE models and
available for free download in the App Store and Google Play,

wirelessly3 from their compatible mobile device before they travel
or attend an off-site meeting.
