Canon’s NetSpot® Suite

Connectivity Software Simplified

Like all Canon networked systems, the imageRUNNER 105 comes equipped with a compre- hensive set of system utilities designed to simplify operation and management for both end-users and network administrators. Canon’s NetSpot® Suite consists of the three utilities outlined below:

NetSpot Console

NetSpot Console is a web-based utility capable of installing and managing Canon networked systems, including the imageRUNNER 105, 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, including low toner and paper jams. For added convenience, 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 manage and track the progress of print jobs, Canon supplies NetSpot Job Monitor. 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 job completion.

NetSpot Accountant**

NetSpot Accountant is an optional utility available for the imageRUNNER 105 that is capable of providing comprehensive job-tracking and analysis for cost-accounting and workflow optimization. Using NetSpot Accountant, network administrators can track all activity at the imageRUNNER 105, including copying, printing, and scanning for billing of internal or external clients for device utilization. NetSpot Accountant is ideal for Legal customers, or any customer who desires to account for imageRUNNER 105 device utilization.

Enterprise-management Integration

Canon also supplies plug-in modules for the most popular enterprise-management applications in use today. Supported applications include Microsoft® Management Console, CA-Unicenter, HP® OpenView®, Tivoli® NetView®, and BMC Patrol®. Through these plug-ins, Canon permits easy management of the imageRUNNER 105 from directly within the enterprise-management system console.
