Increase
Productivity In The Office
Imagine how office life could speed up if
your normal document handling processes could
be cut down. As a single device that does
the work of many, the iR 2870 photocopier
saves valuable space taken up by separate
faxes, printers, scanners and copiers –
and all the time you and your staff spend
rushing between them. Now everyone in your
office can create, share and distribute documents
with ease – with a professional finish
without the added expense or hassle of outsourcing.
|
Achieve
Economy With Technology
By combining document handling efficiency
with simplicity, Canon can help you maximise
your workflow and still minimise cost and
effort. To save money, the iR2870 photo copier
has a modular design and a built-in MEAP Java
platform. So it can be set up to match your
current needs and easily accommodate future
growth and further ‘personalised’
business applications. To save time, complex
functions are achievable in easy steps at
the device
itself or individual workstations. To optimise
your resources, Canon Utilities provide a
range of tools, which allow ease of use and
control of the devices in your working environment.

Higher
Security Lowers Risk
Canon’s new safeguards on the iR 2870
enhances the security of your confidential
data. To make sure that only you see your
document, use Secured Print to delay printing
until you’re at the device to enter
a unique password. To limit access to the
device, use the Department ID Management and
Single Sign On features that only permit authorized
usage with pre-set
passwords. To minimise the security risks
of multiple distribution, you can encrypt
PDFs with a password to guarantee that only
the authorized recipients can access the document.
Data
transferred between the users’ PC and
the printer can be equally protected by encryption
using HTTPS. And for extra safety, the new
security kit enables you to encrypt and automatically
erase all information saved on the hard disk
drive. |
Reach
New Levels Of Efficiency
Canon’s multi functional printers offer
input as well as output – a step ahead
of conventional desktop printers. Everyone
in your office can now combine paper and electronic
documents for easy sending, sharing, storing
and retrieving. Hard copies can be scanned
in once and sent directly from the iR 2870
to many destinationswithout the expense of
ink or paper. Electronic sending is not only
fast but also safer- especially with Canon’s
security innovations to protect documents
from unauthorised users. |
What
Can This Do That A Printer Can’t?
With a network printer you can print. With
a Canon iR device you can print, scan, copy,
fax,
communicate electronically, finish documents,
manage your document workflow and enjoy
high level document security. |
Isn’t
This Kind Of Technology Expensive?
Because the iR does the work of more than
one office machine, it can get more done by
less people. Installed in the heart of your
office , it can also reduce the time jobs
take and the amount of paper used. And being
modular, it can grow with your needs. |
What
Do Canon Utilities Offer?
Canon Utilities enable you to set up, manage
and control your Canon devices easily. This
gives you real control of print and job management
of one or many devices, whatever the size
of your workgroup. |
Why
Do I Need Security?
Information falling into the wrong hands can
cause financial loss and bad publicity for
your business. As part of the document cycle,
your printer has a key role in protecting
the confidentiality of data. Canon’s
wide range of security features and solutions
are there to provide a level of data protection
to suit your environment. |
Can
An Application Be Customised For Our Business?
Canon is continuously developing MEAP embedded
applications that run directly on iR devices.
We aim to offer an extensive range of applications
to help you work the way you want to –
not only through Canon expertise but also
through our partnerships with leading software
companies and developers. |
Install,
Manage And Upgrade Easily
The 2870 is easy to install and is available
in different Printer Driver Language options
– PCL, PostScript and UFRII (a unique
PDL developed by Canon for faster document
processing.) To set up and manage several
devices at once use Canon’s device information
distribution. This feature enables the administrator
to perform the settings on one device via
the Remote User Interface and replicate them
instantly on other devices, saving time and
resources. |
Communicate
Electronically And Process Speedily
Now everyone in your workgroup can share the
data within your documents. Electronic communication
also streamlines workflow by removing several
steps and many hard copies from lengthy administrative
processes. Don’t worry about overloading
your devices in the
same way that you overload filing cabinets.
Canon has developed a clever web-based solution
called URL Send. This enables scanned documents
to sit in a Mailbox on the device rather than
being sent via e-mail as attachments. Only
the URL of the document is e-mailed to recipients
for retrieval when they need it – saving
electronic traffic jams and clogged personal
email boxes. |
With
Canon’s new iW Publishing Manager software,
you can easily merge documents from different
Windows applications (eg Microsoft Word, Excel,
PowerPoint). From this electronic ‘master’,
you can edit, amend and print your professional
Can I bring documents together
from different sources? document with no time
wasted on manual collating or finishing. More
importantly you can save the settings applied
to your document for future prints, therefore
improving your overall efficiency. |
Can
I Store Information On The Device?
You can store documents on the iR2870 via
scanning or printing to the Mailbox. This
allows access to purchase orders, expense
forms, etc – at the device instead of
searching for files on your PC. Just print
it when you need it. And protect it with a
password
for confidentiality. |
Share
And Send Information Instantly
Use Canon Universal Send to scan in documents
and send them electronically to anyone, anywhere.
Create PDFs at the iR 2870 itself and retrieve
them easily with Canon’s Searchable
PDF feature. This innovative feature enables
you to locate any PDFs in your database by
keywords in the content. For added security
and simplicity, use the Mailbox feature to
scan and store documents and print them securely
– using your password – when needed.
|
Manage Every Task Easily
Managing information is as important as producing
it. That’s why Canon iR devices are
designed to help users without technical expertise
to manage document workflow with amazing efficiency
-either at the device itself or directly from
their desktop. Both the intuitive control
panel on the 2870 and Remote User Interface
(RUI) at the user’s PC enable sophisticated
features and functions to be completed in
easy-to-follow steps. |
Create
Complex Documents With Simplicity
At last it’s possible to complete all
the documents you create. Canon’s range
of finishing options on the iR 2870 produce
professional documents that are ready for
presentation. Choose from a wide range of
media and sizes, and select your desired finish
such as booklets or stapled documents. Save
office space, by selecting the inner finisher,
which now comes with an optional internal
puncher unit. And achieve all your document
production in-house, in time and with no bills
for outsourcing. |
