You can operate the touch panel display much like a smartphone, using familiar gestures such as flicking and pinching in or out. Easy-to-understand videos provide maintenance instructions, such as when the toner cartridge or staples need to be replaced. Equipped with a motion sensor, the machine automatically wakes up from sleep or energy saver mode when a person is detected nearby.

Using the Touch Panel Display

The machine is equipped with functions that let you copy large amounts of documents more efficiently. For example, you can scan a document on one Canon multifunction printer and then distribute the data to multiple machines for copying, or you can scan multiple documents with different settings and then merge them into a single document for copying. In addition, you can use the Direct Print function to print directly from a computer or network without a printer driver, such as when you are away from your office. When scanning documents, you can enjoy stress-free operations thanks to features such as the ability to skip blank pages, as well as messages that notify you when pages are stuck together. The machine is also equipped with convenient forwarding functions, such as the ability to automatically forward received documents, as well as to receive e-mail notifications after sending is complete, which can improve the efficiency of your operations in a variety of situations.

The machine conserves power by entering sleep mode or energy saver mode when it is not in use. In addition, the staple-free stapler lets you join pages together without using staples. The PC Fax function lets you send documents directly from your computer without printing them out first, which helps the environment by reducing the amount of paper you use.
