Evernote Partners With Lexmark For One-Step Scanning

Posted on 24 February 2010 by


Evernote continues to roll integration with numerous apps and partnerships with assorted hardware manufacturers. The latest partnership comes in the form of Evernote’s SmartSolution now being available for three of Lexmark’s inkjet all-in-one printers, the Interact, Prestige and Platinum.

This new integration allows users to send hardcopy scans into Evernote straight from their Lexmark machine with a single touch of a button.

I’ve been using this solution with my Fujitsu ScanSnap lately, as I have been digitizing my assorted notebooks from numerous seminars and training I’ve attended over the years in preparation for the upcoming iPad.

As the company explains:

This, like many of Evernote’s recent integrations, gives their users yet another channel to expedite sending important information straight into Evernote with the ease of a single step process.

Lexmark built an application off of Evernote’s platform to save time when they need to store and access information quickly and efficiently from their printer. After a simple setup process, an Evernote application icon appears on the printer’s touch screen. Once tapped, the scan is synced across all devices, waiting for you in your Evernote account and made fully searchable with Evernote’s powerful text recognition technology.

Having a father who was heavily involved in early laser and fiber-optical research, Dan grew up surrounded by technology and gadgets. Dan’s father brought home one of the very first video games when he was young and Dan remembers seeing a “pre-release” touchtone phone. (When he asked his father what the “#” and “*” buttons were his dad said, “Some day, far in the future, we’ll have some use for them.”) Technology seemed to be in Dan’s blood but at some point he took a different path and ended up in the clergy. His passion for technology and gadgets never left him. +Dan Cohen
