FaxSav Extends Internet Fax Capabilities To Third Line of HP ScanJet Color Scanners EDISON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 25, 1999--FaxSav, (Nasdaq NM: FAXX - news) the global leader in Internet Fax, announced today that it has teamed up with Hewlett-Packard to make it easy and affordable to scan an image and send it over the Internet as a fax, by accessing FaxSav's Global Fax Network from HP's newest series of color desktop scanners -- the HP ScanJet 5200C. The HP ScanJet 5200C series of professional color scanners are enabled to transparently access FaxSav's Global Internet Fax Network, so that any HP customer with a desktop scanner and an existing Internet connection, can fax documents and graphics directly from the scanner. The partnership provides HP customers with a means of faxing scanned images and computer-originated documents to customers/clients world-wide without additional hardware and at an inexpensive guaranteed fixed cost-per-page price. When faxing scanned graphics -- which are memory intensive and generally more costly to fax via telephony - such cost savings can be critical. The HP ScanJet 5200C is the third line in HP's scanner series with Internet Fax capabilities. In the fall of 1997 Hewlett Packard began shipping the HP ScanJet 6100 and, in mid-1998, the HP ScanJet 6200C. Using FaxSav's enhanced faxing service will allow HP customers to: -- send a fax broadcast from the desktop PC -- send a fax without disconnecting from the Internet -- create a fax and queue it for later delivery -- confirm a fax delivery through email notification -- preview and archive faxes for records -- render and store any document in a .TIF format without sending a fax. ''We've teamed up twice in the past 12 months with Hewlett-Packard to enable first their 6100 and 6200 series, and now their 5200 series of desktop scanners to send Internet Fax,'' explained Bill Fallon, FaxSav's Vice President of Marketing. ''Our ongoing relationship with a market leader that's known for high quality and innovation, helps us take another step toward making Internet Fax available from any device a customer chooses to use - whether that's email, a fax machine, web site, or scanner.'' FaxSav's award-winning FaxLauncher Pro software is responsible for bringing this easy to use, reliable, and economical faxing option to ScanJet desktop scanners. It enables HP customers to scan and fax documents to remote locations, such as branch offices and main headquarters, without incurring courier and overnight mailing expenses. To better serve HP's global customer base, FaxLauncher Pro software is available in 12 of the most widely used languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Russian and Korean - making it the only localized Internet Fax software available in many major markets. FaxSav is the global leader in Internet Fax, an emerging industry recently forecasted by the Dataquest/Gartner Group to grow from 44 million pages carried in 1997 to 5.6 billion pages by the year 2001. FaxSav provides enterprise-wide fax solutions to customers in 150 countries, helping them fax more easily, efficiently, and cost effectively For more information about the FaxSav/HP Scanner products contact 1-888-3FAXSAV; send email to Serena Ainsworth at www.hp@faxsav.com, or visit FaxSav's website at www.faxsav.com.
