One of the key trends in the IT world of late has been convergence. The digitisation of information and the many different types of media are converging into a few, all purpose digital formats.

One area where this revolution is being felt is the modern office. Here, traditionally separate document information systems such as printers, copiers, scanners, faxes and servers are converging into single unit, multifunction devices.
