An All-star Player Sporting all the Tools
The imageRUNNER 5000, like all Canon networked systems, comes equipped with a comprehensive set of system utilities designed to simplify operation and management for both end-users and network administrators. Through these tools, Canon eases device installation and network management while supplying a level of device status and job-management capabilities unmatched in the industry.
You Need to do More than Just Connect to the Network
Basic network connectivity is just that—basic. To truly support customer requirements, networked devices must be easy to install, seamlessly integrate with existing network-management applications, and permit manage- ment from anywhere in the enterprise. Canon’s comprehensive solution to these customer requirements is embodied within Canon’s suite of software utilities as outlined below:
Remote UI:™ Canon’s Remote UI utility transforms a user’s desktop into a remote access center for the imageRUNNER 5000. By entering the IP address of the device from a standard web browser, users gain instant access to device status and settings, job-management functions, user Mail Boxes and more–with no additional hardware or software required.
NetSpot Console: NetSpot Console is a web-based instal- lation and management utility capable of installing and managing Canon networked systems, including the imageRUNNER 5000, on most customer networks. Through NetSpot Console, network administrators are
provided a convenient, platform-independent utility to install and manage Canon devices from anywhere within the enterprise. In addition to basic installation support, NetSpot Console also delivers administrator alerts, notifying administrators of device status conditions such as low toner, paper jams, and others. For added conve- nience, NetSpot Console is also capable of managing third-party printers complying with the standard Printer MIB, thereby consolidating network device management via one utility.
NetSpot Job Monitor: To track the progress and manage print jobs, Canon supplies NetSpot Job Monitor. Using this utility, end-users can track the progress of jobs sent for printing. NetSpot Job Monitor runs as an automated task in the Windows® System Tray, and can be configured to report job conditions based on administrator or end- user preferences. Significant to NetSpot Job Monitor is its ability to deliver end-of-job notification to end-users, ensuring that they are always informed of the completion of submitted work.
