TRUMBULL, Conn. - July 19, 2001 - Pitney Bowes Office Systems, a leader in the corporate fax and copier industry, has received the "Editor's Choice" award from Better Buys for Business for its DL750, 75 page-per-minute, digital copier/printer. "Receiving the Editor's Choice recognition for our DL750 is a statement by a respected independent source that Pitney Bowes Office Systems is offering the right combination of performance and cost to the high volume segment of the market," said Nathaniel Gifford, vice president, Strategic Marketing, Pitney Bowes Office Systems. "Our entire new line of digital copier/printers is being offered to corporate customers with this same attention to cost-effectiveness, performance, support, and best-in-class solutions." During the past year, Pitney Bowes has moved aggressively to offer solutions to corporate customers by systematically filling out its comprehensive line of digital copier/printers. This new line of color and black-and-white digital devices has print speeds that range from 17 to 75 pages-per-minute, and meets the requirements of the office workgroup and high-volume in-house central reprographics departments. "The DL750 is an excellent machine and a worthy recipient of our Editor's Choice rating," said Jonathan Bees, editor in chief, Better Buys for Business. "The 75 page-per-minute DL750 is the fastest digital copier/printer yet from Pitney Bowes. The new machine is built on a very durable platform and offers a host of advanced high-volume capabilities. It performed admirably on our suite of copier productivity tests." With a 550,000 maximum monthly print volume, the DL750 is well suited to augment production in busy centralized environments. With the DL750, customers can now complement high-volume units and implement a volume-splitting strategy to cost-effectively increase throughput. Customers will find a host of operational and performance benefits from the DL750's advanced networking, scanning, document handling, and finishing features. With the added productivity enabled by digital technology, the DL750 is a logical, low cost replacement for high speed, aging analog copiers and underutilized digital production publishers.
