Information Sharing Without Limits

In addition to its basic local and network scanning capabilities, the imageRUNNER 8500 can be upgraded to add Canon’s new Universal Send feature. Using Universal Send, hard- copy documents can be scanned at the device and “pushed” to MULTIPLE destinations using MULTIPLE formats in ONE simple operation.

Send as an E-mail – Send scanned documents as E-mail attachments in TIFF, multipage TIFF, or PDF.

Send as an Internet Fax – Bypass the PSTN and send scanned documents over the Internet as fax transmissions at no cost.

Send to a File Server – Store scanned data in a centralized directory for archival purposes or sharing within workgroups (FTP, Windows®, NetWare®).

Send to a Mail Box – Organize and archive digital information in 100 Mail Boxes. Store files for sharing, merging, printing, or sending at a later time.

Send to a Database – Use for automatic data collection and to eliminate redundant data entry and errors.

The advanced functions of Universal Send allow users to communicate, manage, and share information as never before, and require no special server or additional software. What’s more, Universal Send works simultaneously with the imageRUNNER 8500’s Print and Copy functions for enhanced multitasking.

As the widespread use of electronic- based information continues to grow, office devices need to be able to easily integrate both hard-copy and electronic documents. Through its scanning capa- bilities, the imageRUNNER 8500 is up to the task. Users can scan documents locally to the imageRUNNER 8500 internal Mail Boxes, or over the network (network print option required) using Canon’s virtual TWAIN driver. In addition, customers can leverage any TWAIN- compliant software application to drive the imageRUNNER 8500 for specific network scanning and workflow requirements.
