Scanners
Every business generates paperwork - and that paperwork often needs to move as fast as the people using it. Metro Sales offers a full lineup of office scanners, from compact desktop models to the top-of-the-line, high-tech imaging tech, built to fit organizations of any size.
As one of the largest independent office technology providers in the Midwest, our team is equipped to help you find the best scanning solution for how your team actually works.

What clients say
Told straight, by the people who hired us
Right from the start, Metro Sales professionalism and expertise has been top notch. I knew nothing about Ricoh's Global Scan and Streamline. Now, I would like to think I have a very state-of-the-art, printing/scanning infrastructure that is adaptable, scalable, dependable, and cost effective.
As a solo attorney, DocuWare has helped transform the way I run my practice. The ability to easily and efficiently digitize my files not only saves me substantial time, but also allows me the ability to access my case files from anywhere.
Once we went live (with DocuWare) and we got through our testing, within probably two weeks or a week we started to see a difference in our process, we started to feel it. We started to identify the time savings within two weeks. That is really good, tools don't usually have that big of savings. My team isn't troubleshooting, we have one person handling that now. Our team saw that change pretty immediately. The solution is working really well.
