Maximize Uptime Across Your Enterprise

imageWARE Enterprise Management Console is a highly scalable, Web-based installation and management utility capable of installing and managing multiple Canon and third-party devices on most customer networks.

• Device List

For IT personnel frustrated with having to cope with a multitude of individual device management utilities, imageWARE Enterprise Management Console delivers a streamlined, centralized point of control for all devices installed across your enterprise. Its expandability helps to speed the correction of error conditions by directing low toner, paper jams, and maintenance alerts via e-mail messages to the designated network administra- tor. With imageWARE Enterprise Management Console, IT administrators are provided with a single, integrated utility to manage network peripherals from any connect- ed PC. What’s more, multiple imageWARE Enterprise Management Console servers can be installed on your network in different geographical locations to reduce network traffic, so you can place device management portals where you decide they’re needed most.

Server Discovery and Management Module

IT administrators can easily discover other imageWARE Enterprise Management Console servers installed on the network.

Create Device Names

Simplify device identification tasks by naming periph- erals by type or location, such as Third Floor West— Color imageRUNNER® device.

Identify Device Configuration

Through Remote UI, Canon’s browser-based device status utility—a graphic image and primary informa- tion about the target device—is displayed. Users can see the amount of memory, hard disk space, paper sizes, and quantities remaining in the unit, as well as available finishing modes to help users make informed printing decisions from the desktop.

Manage Third-Party Devices Complying with the Standard Printer MIB

Consolidate network device management regardless of brand or manufacturer through a single utility for added convenience.

View Device Status

Connected devices immediately report changes in sta- tus conditions via e-mail sent to a system administrator or a specific end-user for the fast resolution of errors such as paper jams or out-of-toner/ink conditions.

Customize Viewing Preferences

Sort devices by protocol, type, or group to segment and manage them as your environment demands, such as All Black-and-White Printers, for example.

Versatile Communication Tools

Send notices to other IT administrators about device status, and exchange messages with individuals or every connected user to inform them about changes to the printing environment or device configuration.
