Case Study: York Region District School Board achieves faster attendance scanning and major cost savings with Lexmark

Lexmark quickly attends to York Region District School Board’s emergency need for electronic document scanning

York Region District School Board faced an urgent problem when its decade-old attendance scanners became incompatible with new Trillium Student Information Management software and the district’s Citrix environment. With the school year approaching, the board needed a fast replacement for its costly pre-printed bubble-sheet process, and it turned to Lexmark for help.

Lexmark delivered a certified Attendance Scanning Solution in record time, combining multifunction printers, scanning software, and custom integration with Trillium. The rollout reached all 31 secondary schools in less than four weeks and is expected to save the board nearly $200,000 over five years, while eliminating pre-printed forms and reducing inventory and processing costs.
