Delivering new color capabilities to the light production marketplace, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital document imaging, today introduced the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075 PRO and C9065 PRO multifunction products.
“These new imageRUNNER ADVANCE models will provide high-speed color and black-and-white performance, exceptional print quality, advanced finishing and media support, solutions integration and reliability,” said Sam Yoshida, vice president and general manager, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A, Inc. “The new imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075 PRO and C9065 PRO models will open up new opportunities for digital color printing in light production environments.”
Building upon the Company’s recent success in the production marketplace, these new models round out Canon’s digital color solutions portfolio to help meet the growing needs of a vast array of production users, from small copy centers and quick print shops to high-end commercial print environments.
“Canon’s success in the production space has been largely based on its ability to deliver a depth and breadth of quality products that are unrivaled in the market,” added Yoshida. “The new imageRUNNER ADVANCE is no exception. With a smaller footprint and cost that is easy to justify, these new models from Canon will bring an outstanding level of quality and functionality to this class.”

The new models will come standard with Canon’s Ultra Fast Rendering II (UFRII) printing technology, as well as optional Adobe PostScript 3 and PCL 5c/6 capabilities. For high color intensive users, there will be new imagePASS and ColorPASS print controller options available.
The new models will provide true 1,200 x 1,200 dots-per-inch (dpi) print resolution. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075 PRO and C9065 PRO will deliver exceptional output image quality, yielding smooth, vivid and well-defined images by virtue of the new architecture and technologies.
Both models will utilize a new, high-capacity Single Pass Duplex Document Feeder with scan speeds up to 200 images-per-minute (ipm) for black-and-white, two-sided and letter-sized documents. In addition to fast output and scan speeds, the new models will be available with a number of robust finishing solutions, including multiple folding options, professional punching and booklet trimming.
