What is NGP?
NGP is an acronym for Network Gateway Platform, a
design on which Muratec has adopted its next
generation of segment 1 and fax products. This
design has led to the development of MFP devices
with a built-in affinity for the network, meaning
products seamlessly integrate into and maximize
the full potential of a corporate network
environment.

Why segment 1 fax-centric devices?
Muratec believes that as customers implement
document archiving programs the on-ramping of
hardcopy documents into a searchable, indexed
filing structure will take place on small
workgroup devices rather than the traditional
copy room behemoths. A convenient, intuitive
desktop solution allows small workgroups /
executives instant on-ramping capabilities
whenever they need to digitize a document for
either archiving or distribution purposes, making
for an efficient and cost-effective solution.

What functions can I perform on NGP-enabled
devices?

• NGP-enabled devices are capable of
• Color scan to network (direct SMB scanning)
• Color scan to FTP (direct or shortcut)
• Color scan to e-mail (direct or shortcut)
• Internet faxing (T.37 compliant, not T.38)
• Desktop faxing
• Traditional walk-up faxing (33.6 Kbps high-speed
  modem)
• Without adding any additional hardware or
  software.

6
Color scan to network

• Scan both high-resolution color and monochrome
  hardcopy documents directly into network folders.
• Surf your network file structure from the
  intuitive touchscreen, guiding documents directly
  into the folder of their choice (similar to
  saving a document using Windows Explorer).
• Register up to 20 folder shortcut locations
  allowing for one-touch job initiation.
• The QWERTY keypad allows you to tag each scanned
  document with a custom file name, allowing for
  greater file retrieval capabilities.
• Documents may be saved in TIFF, PDF or JPEG
  format.

7
Color scan to FTP

• Post both high-resolution color and monochrome
  hardcopy documents directly onto FTP sites
• Register up to 20 FTP shortcut locations allowing
  for one-touch job initiation
• The QWERTY keypad allows you to tag each scanned
  document with a customized file name, allowing
  for greater file retrieval capabilities.
• Documents may be posted in TIFF, PDF or JPEG
  format.

8
Color scan to e-mail

• Send both color and monochrome hardcopy documents
  to e-mail recipients as either TIFF, PDF or
  JPEGs.
• Register e-mail addresses in the internal address
  book for quick recall or enter them manually
  using the intuitive QWERTY keypad (which mirrors
  a PC keyboard and even includes a .com
  button!).
• Simultaneously send documents via fax and email,
  depending on the recipients preferred method.
• Toggle between To/Cc/Bcc, just as you would when
  sending via Outlook.

9
Color scan to e-mail

• Network administrators can limit file scanning
  size to reduce network congestion. Transmission
  may also be broken up into separate transmissions
  to insure quick delivery.
• Attach network/desktop files to your
  transmission, no matter the file format.
• You can easily attach a quick subject line and
  text message to your outgoing e-mail (preventing
  the recipient from thinking the message is SPAM).

10
Internet faxing

• T.37 internet fax connection offers fast and
  secure delivery of hardcopy documents to remote
  internet fax terminals (T.37 only, not compliant
  with T.38).
• Utilizing the existing mail server does not
  require the purchase/installation of a VPN
  (virtual private network). Uses basic SMTP e-mail
  delivery and POP3 email reception.
• Files are transferred as TIFF images.
• QWERTY keypad makes sending an I-Fax as seamless
  as a fax transmission.

11
Desktop faxing

• Quickly send documents from PC applications to
  remote fax terminals, bypassing the need to print
  documents prior to fax transmission.
• Insert custom coversheets and short text
  messages.
• Received faxes may be routed to e-mail addresses,
  network folders or FTP sites, reducing paper
  consumption and increasing delivery accuracy to
  intended parties.
• Improved PC fax interface allows you to view sent
  documents and quickly delete them from memory.
• Intuitive confirmation screen allows you to view
  the sent document, transmission time and result.

12
Walk-up faxing

• 33.6 Kbps modem w/JBIG compression and optional
  2nd line.
• 300 location address book (each location can
  include both an e-mail address and fax number).
• Quickly import address book data from Microsoft
  Outlook (vCard) into the internal address book.
• Corporate directory searching capabilities (LDAP
  compliant).
• Select the appropriate server prior to searching
  (up to 5 servers may be registered).
• Contacts located during a directory search may be
  imported into the internal address book for
  instant recall.

13
Simplistic operation
NGP-enabled products are the first segment 1 and
fax-centric products to utilize a touchscreen,
which allows for intuitive user operation.
