Typical these customers don&#8217;t want to deal with USB Redirection (XenApp 7.x or Microsoft Remote FX) or don&#8217;t have USB Redirection available (XenApp &lt;=6.5 \/ Windows Terminal Server &lt;= Windows 2008 R2)<\/p>\n<p>If you run\u00a0in a situation like this you should look out for solutions like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.irislink.com\/c2-2360-189\/IRISCard-Anywhere-5---Cardiris-5---Business-Card-Recognition.aspx\">IRIS Card Anywhere<\/a>\u00a0(Canon). Devices working in the same way don&#8217;t need a &#8220;special&#8221; driver installed, they come with an internal memory or SD-Card and can be used like an regular USB Memory and this means: It can be used with Windows, Linux, MacOSX or an Android Tablet providing a USB Port. Disadvantage: They are a little bit more expensive but if you calculate the work to get a driver installed or deployed in your environment than you will have a much cheaper TCO.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers<\/p>\n<p>Michael<\/p>\n<p>P.S.: I used the IRIS Card as sample regarding my past experience, it&#8217;s not an advertisement. \ud83d\ude42 In any way there are several solutions out there and you should test it in advance and before ordering a bunch of these devices. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Folks, from time to time customers are asking what type of Business Card Scanners can be used with the IGEL Linux or any other &#8220;none&#8221; Windows Client devices together with XenApp or Microsoft Remote Desktop Services.
