- ALWAYS FROM YOUR POINT OF VIEW
User-Centered Design
We wish to contribute to the business of customers by offering user-friendly document devices and services to as many people as possible.We develop products based on the user-centered design process in order to deeply understand each customer and offer better products and services.This process consists of survey, planning, design, and evaluation. The repetition of this process allows us to identify challenges, including slight dissatisfaction that customers feel and concerns that customers have not noticed yet. This is a product development approach that implements improvements from various perspectives.Through this activity, we promote the development of products that meet the needs of more customers.- Survey
Information about the usage and use problems of document devices is collected from sales and market support sites, call centers, and customer surveys, and is analyzed to identify and prioritize challenges to be solved.
- Planning
Planners, designers, and engineers discuss the challenges identified through surveys, to find the ideal products and their implementation methods. Experts in various fields engage in discussions depending on the theme of the challenge.
- Design
To commercialize the planned products, development team members, including designers and engineers, work together on product design. Furthermore, the designed products are reviewed based on user friendliness guidelines and check lists to bring them to perfection.
- Survey
Large Touch Screen
Fonts and icons are displayed in large size on the large full-color touch screen. Furthermore, the finished quality and image of scanned document data and the image of saved print data can be previewed. Checking before printing ensures accurate operation.
- Intuitive & Tablet-like Operability
Users can flick on the home screen, pinch on the preview screen, and display the soft key numeric keypad when necessary, just like when intuitively operating a smartphone or tablet device.
