Canon 5000 Printer User Manual


 
Network Printing and Connectivity Should Not Be an Afterthought
Why Stand Alone When You Can Connect?
When configured with one of two optional print controllers, the imageRUNNER 5000 becomes a
powerful networked device, giving users full access to the imageRUNNER 5000’s advanced
capabilities right from their desktops. Users can choose either the Canon-designed Network
Multi-PDL Printer Kit-A2 or the imagePASS-L1 Print Controller developed by Electronics for
Imaging. Both enable 2400 x 600 dpi interpolated print resolution, and are designed to integrate
seamlessly with your existing network infrastructure.
The Canon-customized controller leverages the standard 250MHz processor embedded into each
imageRUNNER 5000 base model. This controller is best suited for text-intensive documents
common to the general office environment, and where PCL page description language represents
the bulk of jobs sent to the printer.
The imagePASS-L1 Print Controller features an Intel
®
Celeron
®
366MHz Mobile processor, and is
designed for environments in which complex graphics, variable data, or true Adobe
®
PostScript
®
files make up the majority of print jobs. An imageRUNNER 5000 equipped with an imagePASS-L1
Print Controller gives users full access to EFI™ print utilities such as WebTools,™ DocBuilder,™
Command WorkStation,™ and Fiery
®
FreeForm.™
