OKI Europe Adds Google Cloud Print Service to Selected Colour Multifunction Printers

Google printing technology helps optimise mobile workforce productivity

OKI Europe Ltd has enhanced its mobile print portfolio with the addition of the Google Cloud Print™* service to selected multifunction printers (MFPs).

Google Cloud Print allows users to wirelessly print documents including Gmail™ and Google Docs™ from a smartphone, tablet, Chrome device, PC, or any other web-connected device to OKI’s Google Cloud Print Ready MFPs with ease, improving both productivity and convenience.

The Google Cloud Print service will initially be available on the MC300 Series and MC500 Series**, A4 colour MFPs, enabling users to easily print high quality business documents, when they need them, wherever they may be, without the need to install print drivers or plug in cables.

"Using our Google Cloud Print Ready products, you can make your home and work printers available to you and anyone you choose, allowing you to print from anywhere, from applications you use every day," says Tetsuya Kuri, vice president, product marketing, EMEA. "We understand the workforce is becoming increasingly mobile so we are excited to deliver this additional connectivity service which will provide enhanced options for our end users and drive greater efficiency within the workplace."

The MC300 Series and MC500 Series combine a powerful feature set, with large paper capacity, fast print speeds, duplex printing and scanning capabilities, digital LED technology and high-definition colour output, all in a compact design. The addition of the Google Cloud Print service further strengthens OKI Europe’s mobile print offering, helping end users to print everyday applications from anywhere.
