ties into
Cisco's vision of providing easy, reliable and secure
access
to the Internet on the move, at home or at work. By
providing
mobile business professionals with convenient, easy
access to
their corporate networks from locations including
airports and
airline lounges, convention centers and hotels,
enterprises
will realize increased productivity from their
employees and

Cisco selected Mimeo.com as an applications service
provider
because Mimeo.com has set a new standard for corporate
printing,
whether from a remote site or at the office, built on
the strength
of its secure and dependable technology for data
transfer and

at its
state-of-the-art digital printing facility. Mimeo.com

to have
their documents printed, bound and delivered to their
desired
destinations directly from their personal laptop.
"The ability to print important documents with the
quality that
mobile business professionals expect, and the security
and dependability
that they demand is a key application driving the need
for easy
access to the Internet from airports and other public
venues,"
said Charles Giancarlo, Senior Vice President of
Cisco's Commercial
Line of Business. "The Mimeo.com technology solution,
combined
with a Cisco network infrastructure comprised of
wireless and
wired networking technology, delivers a critical
business service
for mobile professionals."
The Mimeo.com service utilizes the patent-pending
Exact PrintSM
Software, which allows users to send electronic data
in an encrypted,
secure and high-speed manner directly from any PC
application
to Mimeo.com's centralized production center in
Memphis, TN.
The documents are viewed real-time by customers and
then printed,
bound and delivered exactly as specified by the
customer. When
paired with the Cisco technology and delivered by
leading Cisco
Powered Network service providers, enterprise business
professionals
will be able to access fast, convenient, secure
wireless document
production in environments like airports, hotels and
other public
access spaces.
"We are proud to have been selected by Cisco Systems
to provide
the on-line printing solution for their important new
wireless
service for the enterprise mobile professional," said
Jeff Stewart,
CEO of Mimeo.com. "When we developed the Mimeo.com
service,
we designed it to allow people to access the highest
quality
printing and binding without regard for differences in
time,
place, type of PC or software application. The Cisco
Internet
Mobile Office initiative allows for a great expansion
of available
locations where business travelers can be productive

our service and moves us closer to the technology
necessary
for full PDA usability with our service."
