Nothing extra-ordinary to worry about. The digital copiers carry a lot more
capabilities since they can also be used as scanners and fax machines if I'm
not mistaken. Should also have a lot sharper resolution compared to the old
analog machines. Find out what brand you are getting then visit their
website for further information concerning the capabilities of the machines.

Just consider it the next evolution in copying.
