large number of paper sources, and wide range of acceptable paper
weights, sizes, and stocks, the imageRUNNER 8500 is capable of per-
forming just about any job you can dream up.
Innovative Capabilities to Help You Work Smarter
The imageRUNNER 8500’s standard 10GB Internal Image Server hosts
many unique applications that set new standards for production-level
output. These innovative capabilities include Confidential Mail Boxes,
Scan-Once-Print-Many, Automatic Page Imposition, Copy Reservation,
Job Build, SmartScan Page Recognition, Chapterization, and Tab Copying
and Insertion.
Finishing Capabilities that Make You Shine
Your finished documents are representative of your business, and
as such, should be as professional-looking as possible. The
imageRUNNER 8500’s extensive finishing capabilities are designed
to make your documents stand out from the crowd. From basic
collated and stapled output to multipage, saddle-stitched booklets,
the imageRUNNER 8500 delivers with a minimum of operator
involvement. There is even optional support for Z-folding and post-
process document insertion.
The Ideal Solution for Production-level Environments
With a print controller capable of handling 10/100 Ethernet or Token
Ring* connections and PostScript
® 3 Emulation and PCL ® 6 print languages,
the imageRUNNER 8500 can meet the needs of the most demanding
production environments.
Canon’s latest print controller design leverages the unit’s Internal
Image Server and memory structure, ensuring rapid first-page-out
times, and quick and efficient printing of common office documents.
Additionally, the imageRUNNER 8500’s network printing function
offers a number of advanced features such as Confidential Printing,
Mail Box Printing, In-line Finishing, and more.
Manage Information Regardless of Form
As the widespread use of electronic-based information continues
to grow, office devices need to be able to easily integrate both hard-
copy and electronic documents. Through its scanning capabilities,
the imageRUNNER 8500 is up to the task. Users can scan documents
locally to the imageRUNNER 8500 internal User Mail Boxes, or over the
network (network print option required) using Canon’s virtual TWAIN
driver. In addition, the imageRUNNER 8500 can be upgraded to add
Canon’s new Universal Send
™ capability, allowing users to scan and
“push” documents via communicating machines, including E-mail,
I-Fax, FTP, and local areas networks.
Connectivity Software Simplified

equipped with a comprehensive set of system utilities designed
to simplify operation and management for both end-users and
network administrators. Through these tools, Canon eases device
installation and network management while supplying a level of device
status and job-management capabilities unmatched in the industry.
Additionally, all imageRUNNER 8500 devices ship standard with a
Remote UI feature, allowing users to access device status and configura-
tion, job status, address books, and more using a standard web browser
from a desktop PC, with no additional software requirements.
