A corporate level paper production system such as the Canon ImageRunner 2800 is a must for workgroups with extremely high output demands. This network copy machine can both print and make copies at a rapid rate of 28 pages per minute with high quality resolution and duplex double sided printing, which means your presentations will have maximized professional appeal.
With an enormous 2,500 sheet potential total paper capacity and a huge footprint, the Canon ImageRunner 2800 truly qualifies as an industrial level machine, though, without expansions, it only comes equipped with two 500 sheet total capacity cartridges, and a stack bypass of 50 sheets. Other expandable hardware includes a cassette feeder for additional paper, and a finisher that includes an automatic stapler.
Not only can the optional finisher staple, it can also fold paper, and can be expanded even further with a hole puncher. It can even saddle stitch brochures and publications up to 40 pages thick. Interestingly, the 50 sheet automatic document feeder is also an expandable option, as the unit can be ordered with a simple platen glass for single passes. For a unit of this magnitude, the absence of an automatic document feeder seems absurd, but Canon has gone out of their way to make the Canon ImageRunner 2800 as customizable as possible to match almost any demand set.
The Canon ImageRunner 2800 is a network ready unit, and is designed to take the abuse of constant use from an entire office, with a 100,000 sheet maximum monthly duty cycle. Canon makes it easy with a comprehensive set of system utilities included with the package and accessible through a NetSpot console device. The tools provide simplified network management and device control that assists the user in getting the maximum usage out of this versatile hardware.
A 5.1 GB image server and 128 MB of built in random access memory store hundreds of innovative features, some unique to Canon products alone. A Scan one, print many feature allows users to scan an image a single time and store it within the hardware’s memory for immediate or later use. Up to 100 confidential mail boxes accept and store scanned or printed data, and allow multiple individual users to combine their own sets of digital information for repeated use.
Due to the high memory capacity, concurrency runs at a very high five total copy jobs, storable in memory while another job is in the process of printing. Concurrent operations reduce down time to an absolute minimum even when dealing with massive outputs. Warm up times are also rapid for a machine of this size, with only 10 seconds or less from sleep mode, of a full 29 seconds from main power off. Once warmed, the unit can execute a first copy time of only 5.8 seconds from the platen glass, or 6.6 from the automatic document feeder.
The Canon ImageRunner 2800 is so customizable and flexible it would be difficult to find a copy demand that the unit couldn’t meet effortlessly. For businesses that need nothing short of the absolute best, a fully functional production system is a must.
