Canon U.S.A., Inc. announced the upcoming release of the imageFORCE C7165 device, a new multifunction printer. Featuring innovative technology, the imageFORCE C7165 device offers high-resolution output, versatile paper handling, and adaptive security features, making it a valuable solution for high volume environments looking to produce brochures, posters, flyers, and business communication materials in-house.
The imageFORCE C7165 device, is designed to deliver consistent, high-precision results at print speeds of up to 65 pages per minute in both black-and-white and color (Letter).* Its compact footprint can make it a great fit for small and medium-sized businesses looking to produce short runs of professional-quality materials in-house, helping reduce the reliance on external print vendors and enhancing overall efficiency.
Built with newly developed technology, D2 Exposure, the imageFORCE C7165 device is designed to deliver excellent high-definition image quality with print resolutions up to 4800 x 2400 dpi. D2 Exposure uses organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) as the light source, combined with Silicon Wafer technology, to help elevate print quality beyond traditional laser technology that is generally used in standard office document production. Compared to traditional laser technology, a shorter light path contributes to less interference, which helps provide high-definition quality, fine lines, and accurate color registration. This technology helps enhance the overall print output and allows for new creative possibilities, enabling businesses to produce a wider variety of applications in-house.
The imageFORCE C7165 model supports a wide variety of media including long sheets up to 51.2 inches with the optional Long Sheet Feeder attachment which is currently scheduled to be available later this year. It is the first enterprise model from Canon that supports printing on synthetic (water resistant) media through the multipurpose tray. Synthetic media is often used for applications such as restaurant menus, outdoor signage, maps, labeling, and other materials. It also supports continuous printing of coated paper. This is due to the Air Assist feature of the multipurpose tray which uses two fans to help limit the paper from adhering together during the feeding process. The Multipurpose Tray also has a Media Sensor that can identify the media type and automatically adjust the fixing temperature and paper transport speed to help produce high-quality output results. This limits the need to manually enter the paper size and paper type when loading paper.
In a continued effort to support the security needs of modern businesses, the imageFORCE C7165 device introduces new Security Environment Estimation technology, which uses an estimation algorithm developed using Machine Learning to analyze the environment, identify the environment type, and recommend security settings based on your environment type. This feature helps enable companies to efficiently implement security settings.**
Designed with sustainability efforts in mind, 30% of the resin material*** used in the imageFORCE C7165 model is made with recycled plastic material – increased from 2% on the conventional Canon office MFP. Plus, Canon has reduced its use of plastic materials by switching from conventional foam packaging to interior cardboard packaging materials for the main unit – a material that is widely recyclable.
“In today’s dynamic business environment, companies must leverage the latest technologies to stay competitive, improve efficiency, and create better work experiences for their employees,” said Shinichi “Sam” Yoshida, executive vice president and general manager, marketing strategy unit, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “With advanced capabilities like impressively high amazing print resolution and features that leverage algorithms developed by Machine Learning, the upcoming imageFORCE C7165 MFP is designed to meet the evolving needs of businesses today, offering opportunities for both cost savings and increased productivity.”
