TRUMBULL, CONN. November 28, 2011 – Océ, an international leader in digital document management, today announced that the Document Printing Systems division of Océ North America, a Canon Group Company, has begun selling the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075S/C9065S PRO color multifunctional printers. Developed jointly by Canon and Océ, the new series combines Canon's imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform with Océ PRISMAsync controller technology to deliver powerful functionality to light production environments.

This introduction demonstrates the power of Canon and Océ technologies," said John Reilly, President, Océ North America, Document Printing Systems. "This series will provide customers with the reliability, performance and superb image quality of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform and powerful workflow capabilities of Océ's PRISMAsync technology."

The first imageRUNNER ADVANCE models to emerge from the joint Canon and Océ innovation pipeline, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9000S PRO Series combines high performance Canon color print technology with unique and award-winning Océ PRISMA® workflow technology to maximize machine running time and greatly improve CRD and print center productivity. With Océ PRISMAsync operation management, users can schedule up to eight hours of jobs at a time.

"The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9000S PRO Series demonstrates another step in the ongoing integration between Canon and Océ by seamlessly integrating each component of the print operation to meet customer demands and deadlines," said Sam Yoshida, Vice President, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A.

The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075S PRO delivers output speeds of up to 75 ppm in black and white and 70 ppm in color, while the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9065S PRO prints up to 65 ppm in black & white and 65 ppm in color. The input trays have a maximum paper capacity of 9,300 sheets, and both paper and toner can be replenished on the fly to keep jobs running uninterrupted. An operator attention light signals upcoming operator interventions, such as media refills, before action is required, allowing time to help prevent a halt in production.

In addition to the devices' robust capabilities and high print quality, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075S/C9065S PRO multifunctional printers utilize fusing technologies and pQ toner that help reduce a customer's overall energy consumption by minimizing power requirements. To further reduce, users' impact on the environment, certain components on these devices are constructed from plant-derived bio-plastic or 100% recycled plastic from retired products.
