Burlington, N.J., March 10, 2008 – Canon Business Solutions., Inc., a subsidiary of Canon U.S.A. and leading provider of document imaging and office solutions, today announced that Century 21 Sussex & Reilly of Chicago has installed the Canon imagePRESS C6000 digital press to support the real estate broker’s ability to produce marketing materials in-house.
 
“We produce 95 percent of all marketing material for our agents in-house. From concept to graphic design, printing and finishing, the marketing department is a true ‘low-cost’ turn-key solution for them.  The Canon imagePRESS C6000 enabled us to provide a high quality product at an affordable price.  We also print just-in-time and do not require minimums, offering a unique solution that has been a selling point for us to obtain and retain agents where others have failed,” said Patrice Lorenzo, Director of Marketing, Century 21 Sussex & Reilly.

The Canon imagePRESS line, which began shipping in July 2007, represents the largest single engine R&D investment in Canon's history. Capable of printing images up to 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution with a superior level of quality, the imagePRESS C6000 prints at 60 pages per minute, including media up to 110lb cover stock.
