Press release from the issuing company

ROCKVILLE, Md., Oct. 12 - OTG Software Inc., a leading provider of online data storage, data access and email management solutions, today announced the certification of the new Canon DR-5060F Hybrid Document Scanner with its XtenderSolutions suite for enterprise content management. OTG is among the first group of software vendors to certify the scanner. The scanner with a photographic memory, the Canon DR-5060F can simultaneously record images to a PC and to obsolescence-proof microfilm, offering state-of-the-art document management and a back-up system in one compact unit. The only digital scanner with built-in, long-term archival recording, the Canon DR-5060F enables image files to be accessible and readable 20, 50, even 100 years in the future, despite changes in storage technology. "When Canon entered the paper scanner business in 1996, OTG was one of the first software companies to certify that their software was compatible with the Canon DR-3020. Since that time they have certified all of our scanners and have proven to be a true partner of Canon dealers,'' says Robert J. Stankard, Director and General Manager of Image Filing System Division. "We are pleased to have OTG's certification of the DR-5060F and we are looking forward to a successful relationship.''
