    Canon is ready to support your company, be it a small, medium or large enterprise, with such new solutions. After the success of its award-winning imageRUNNER ADVANCE (iR-ADV) platform, Canon has launched a new generation of 16 MFD models. These models come packed with features to boost your productivity, increase your security, and enhance your mobility. What’s more, green-friendly companies will love the new models for features that lower total energy consumption.

    Improving Productivity

    Canon knows that every company wants to handle its documents efficiently since time and information are valuable. Do you need to edit a document urgently but realised that you don’t have the soft copy in your computer? Users will love the effective Optical Character Recognition (OCR) function. The new Canon devices can scan and convert documents into commonly accessed formats such as Microsoft Word and Excel, so that you can edit and update with ease.

    Canon has also included a Scan-to-Cloud feature , so the new generation of iR-ADV devices allows you to scan and immediately upload to existing cloud destinations such as Microsoft Sharepoint, Salesforce.com, and Evernote, as well as many newer cloud destinations such as Office365, DropBox, PaperPort and GoogleDrive.

    Working with counterparts in Japan or China and require a device that supports multiple languages? The document conversion service can extract and convert 120 languages quickly, from simplified and traditional Chinese, to Japanese and Korean.

    Even with multiple large quantity print jobs, productivity in the office is never compromised. With the Canon iR-ADV series, you won’t have to wait. Black-and-white speeds are from 55 to 105ppm while colour print speeds are from 20 to 70ppm. It’s blazing speed, leading smoothly to greater efficiency and maximum productivity.

    Enhancing Security

    Canon knows that data security is a top concern for many businesses. As such, the iR-ADV series has been designed with a slew of control features that can help your company promote responsible printing within the organisation. Regular print statistics reports can be generated to moderate and control users’ access and usage. This in turn can help to better manage costs and security issues.

    Through various authentication methods available, individual users can identify themselves using the new server-less login system. They can then easily automate frequently done tasks, such as Scan-to-Email and scanning to a document management system, to enhance their productivity.

    In terms of security, users can print classified documents such as price lists and contracts, with an assurance of knowing that their documents will not be compromised. They can simply select the print jobs to be released after they are physically present to authenticate themselves at the device.

    Enabling Mobility

    With tablets and smartphones everywhere, companies need to keep abreast of technology, providing complementary anytime-anywhere access to data in the corporate system. The Canon Mobile Printing App can be downloaded from the App Store. With a compatible Canon MFD or single-function printer, you can now use a wireless network to print documents and photos directly from your iPhone or iPad. The App has a built-in web browser so you can access and view emails and websites, and twiddle with the flexible print settings.

    Your mobile workforce will love the freedom of connecting to cloud platforms since it does not require a driver or server. With quick swipes on your devices, you now have direct access to Microsoft SharePoint Online and Google Docs. You can easily print documents stored there, whenever and wherever you need them, or scan and upload new documents to the cloud. With this, your company can create a mobile printing strategy, one that uses Canon’s reliable printing solution to integrate smoothly with existing office infrastructure.

    Canon’s new generation imageRUNNER ADVANCE is your organisation’s solution to rising above competition and challenges. With increased productivity, security and mobility, Canon will create countless opportunities for you and your businesses to work smarter.
