Canon iR3170Ci color photocopier
Everything Your Business Needs In Black & White. And More.
Finding the right multifunctional device for your office is now
easy thanks to Canon’s highly innovative iR 3170ci. Compact,
yet powerfully equipped for a diverse range of office tasks, its
innovative smart colour technology brings colour document input
and output to black and white office devices. So you can communicate
with real visual impact - at black and white affordability.
Colour When You Need It
Wouldn’t it be great to have the ability to print in high
quality colour when you need to, without paying to use a local
copyshop, or waiting ages for a desktop printer to complete the
job? Well now you can with a black and white multifunctional that
knows when to print in colour – and when not to. By analysing
your source documents and files, the iR 3170ci photo copier automatically
determines which are in colour, and prints or copies them accordingly.
That way you only pay for colour when you use it – a revolution
in affordable office reproduction. And as colour visuals are proven
to get you noticed – with up to 39% better recognition* – using Canon’s 3170ci with smart colour
is the intelligent decision for forward thinking businesses.

Information That Puts You In Control
System intelligence extends beyond the use of smart colour, giving
business owners unrivalled levels of information and control.
With in-built ID management, you can specify users and limit their
B&W or colour usage, providing controlled access to the machine.
And to keep a firm eye on costs, additional applications such
as Netspot Accountant MEAP allow you to accurately assess usage
by users, groups or departments, providing accurate running costs
detailing all the machine usage statistics and enabling you, when
required, to set specific output limits. That way, outstanding
office communication is managed according to the financial parameters
that you specify.
A New Way To Manage Office Communication
With Canon’s space-saving MFP’s you can enjoy the
benefits of multiple devices from a single, powerful device. Print
detailed reports in black and white or colour, scan hard-copy documents straight to e-mail, walk up and copy, send faxes and
even access the web without a PC – it’s all made simple
with the compact iR copier
Space Saving Innovation
In today’s offices space is a premium. Business owners and
IT managers need office hardware that’s productive and integrated,
not intrusive. With the 3170ci that’s exactly what you get.
By amalgamating the capabilities of many devices into one, you
can free up valuable space in your office. And thanks to Canon’s
innovative thinking, users can produce staple-finished documents without the need for an external
staple sorter, courtesy of the internal finishing unit. With a
compact footprint measuring 565 x 755 x 754mm, you’ll be
amazed how little can do so much.
Instantly Ready For The Network
The system is designed to fit seamlessly into your network environment.
Supporting industry-standard PCL and PostScript printing, the
device is also equipped with Canon’s unique UFR II language
which can enhance printing speeds for Windows applications. Not
only that, but the 3170 also offers the speed and quality of an
Adobe PostScript Printer Unit Option – rare for machines
of its type. Set up and configuration is easy for IT managers.
For multiple device installations, a range of advanced set up,
configuration and management tools, allow for effortless integration,
including one-to-many set up protocols. That way, you set up one
device and replicate its settings onto the other devices, saving
time in installation and configuration. And also benefit from
our range of utilities for day to day management and control.
The Utilities Available Are:-
NetSpot Device Installer
NetSpot Console
NetSpot Job Monitor
NetSpot Resource Downloader
Remote User Interface
Maximising Uptime
As well as on-site support, you also have the option of e-Maintenance
which detects the machine fault automatically, alerting the service
centre to send an engineer, minimising our response time. (Please check availability of this option with
your local Canon supplier)
Built For The Security Conscious
Network-enabled user authentication tools, such as Single Sign-on
(SSO), permit existing network IDs and passwords to be used so
employees can maintain a single identity for all network security functions – ideal in larger, corporate
environments. Once device access is granted, a number of advanced
security and encryption features go to work to prevent data from
being compromised or intercepted by outsiders. For even greater
protection, the optional iR Security Kit initiates the encryption
and overwriting of hard disks to completely erase stored data.
The Secure Print and Personal Mailbox functions ensure that once
a document is sent to print, only its author can retrieve it from
the device – ideal when printing out confidential documents.
Future Proof Investment
Using MEAP (Multifunctional Embedded Application Platform), Canon’s
device embedded Java based application platform, enables new and
customised software developments to be incorporated directly within the device on-site. This way, your
investment keeps pace with the very latest in office communication
technology ensuring a healthy return on investment for years to
come.
Instant Access For All
Access the web directly at the device, making it possible to
print pages and PDFs directly from websites - without the need
for a PC. Employees can even access the company intranet which
means documents like holiday forms, contracts and manuals can
be printed easily and instantly. A simple colour touch screen
panel provides instant walk-up access to all staff.
Simple copying jobs, scanning documents to email accounts, or
sophisticated colour booklet creation and collation are all easily
achievable via step-by-step menus. Disabled users can also operate
system functions from a laptop or desktop PC using the optional
Remote Operator’s Software Kit, which emulates the control
panel. Visually impaired users can receive audible job confirmation
through the optional Voice Guidance Kit. And the optional ADF
handle allows users in wheelchairs to close the opened document
feeder.
From Start To Finish
The system offers levels of document production that you might
only expect to be available from professional print suppliers.
With an innovative internal finisher you have everything required
to produce exceptional quality documents in style. In addition
to automatic collation, hole punching and stapling, users can
opt for an impressive range of finishes - even producing colour
saddle-stitched booklets. And thanks to its accessible user-interface,
performing these tasks is no problem at all. Using Canon’s
cutting edge iW Publishing Manager (iWPM) software, you can also
create professional documents by merging the component parts from
different sources, (for example, Microsoft™ Excel, Microsoft™
PowerPoint, etc), without having to collate them separately –
offering a huge time saving in the creation and print of multiple
sources documents.
Advanced Control For Users
Canon’s Send feature enables documents to be scanned at
up to 44 ipm in B&W or colour. A key function of Canon devices,
offered as standard on the iR 3170 Ci, is the ability to scan
and send documents to different sources, by email or to file folder.
As part of this sthe searchable PDF (OCR) Mode* creates searchable
scanned files to locate information quickly, and is ideal when
searching documents by key words in a document management database.
Furthermore, users can minimize the risk of unauthorized distribution
by encrypting PDF files with a password so that only intended
recipients can open, print, or edit the document.
Environmentally Responsible
As an energy saving resource the iR 3170Ci is ahead of its time.
In sleep mode, the system cuts power consumption down, keeping
operational costs to a minimum. And by carefully assessing the
manufacturing process, this complies with the new European Parliament
ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directive, applicable
from 2006. The iR 3170 Ci has also earned a coveted Energy Star
as a multifunctional printer and copier.
