FINALLY, YOU’RE IN CONTROL OF ALL RESOURCES.

The imageRUNNER C3100 Series offers a comprehensive set of utilities and features designed

to simplify operation, management, and security.

User Authentication

Enable Department ID Mode to limit system access to those users assigned valid IDs and passwords. You can set volume ceilings and restrict or enable access to color and black-and-white copy, scan, and print functions for up to 1,000 departments or users. An optional Control Card/Card Reader system manages usage through intelli- gent cards that must be inserted in the system before granting access to functions.

Simplified Device Management

To truly support customer requirements, networked devices must be easy to install, seamlessly integrate into existing network environments, and permit management from any location. Canon’s comprehensive solution to this is embodied within Canon’s Remote UIutility and NetSpot® Suite. Remote UI provides end-users with real-time system access and information via a standard Web browser. NetSpot Suite is a group of utilities designed to ease the administrative burdens associated with vast numbers of print devices on corporate enterprise networks.

Canon Print Server Appliance

The optional Canon Print Server Appliance (PSA) is designed to help administrators manage enterprise network printing. When the PSA is first connected to a network, it will auto- matically discover all print devices, create print shares for those devices, and publish them on an intranet page gener- ated by the appliance. From this intranet page, end-users can download the driver—with a single click—and start printing, resulting in increased efficiency and ease-of-use.

imageRUNNER Security Kit

Your information is a vital asset and one that should be protected at all times. That’s why Canon offers the imageRUNNER Security Kit, an optional software package that initiates the overwriting of hard disks and completely erases previously stored data. This allows you to safe- guard critical information in order to protect the interests of your work environment.
