Coming today to TechnoFeature: New business strategies always begin with a debate, but once such strategies become widely accepted, the debate shifts to how to best implement the strategy. The paperless office has made the shift from new idea to mainstream practice, but the debate over the best scanner for law firms continues. In this TechnoFeature, California lawyer Philip Rhodes reviews the Canon imageFORMULA DR-2010C after using it in his office for about five weeks — a much longer period of time than professional journalists typically spend evaluating products. As a result of this quality time with the imageFORMULA DR-2010C, Philip has a good read on how well it works in a law firm setting, making his review a good read for lawyers and law office administrators.
