PRODUCT LAUNCH Canon imageFORCE C7165
Intelligence led
Canon has launched a new multifunction printer that uses AI to help boost productivity, reliability and security for businesses, as well as providing production print like quality in the office.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been the breakout technology of the past couple of years, and increasingly office technology manufacturers are harnessing it to improve their products and help boost productivity for customers. Customers meanwhile are still demanding increased productivity, but also higher quality image production. To this end, Canon has recently launched its imageFORCE C7165, a multifunction printer (MFP) that is powered by Canon’s newly- developed imageFORCE technology platform. imageFORCE harnesses innovations such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to support new levels of security, reliability and quality for businesses. The imageFORCE C7165 MFP has been specifically designed to help organisations boost productivity and achieve production print like quality in the office. It delivers high-definition imagery, helping to expand creativity and the types of applications that can be printed in-house. For example, high quality flyers and posters can be produced with the same ease as office documents, making it ideal for short print runs, while reducing the cost of using an outsourced print supplier.
prints, improved smoothness and enhanced text quality. Canon says that the imageFORCE C7165 is the only MFP on the market to deliver 4800dpi resolution imagery, which means it delivers a print quality that rivals that of an outsourced supplier. It is therefore ideal for producing high-quality printed materials in-house, including flyers, posters, pamphlets and longer length banners. The imageFORCE C7165 can also help to simplify the process of printing sales materials, such as business cards, postcards and personalised direct mail. Enhanced security Another benefit of using AI in print is that it can help to enhance security. The imageFORCE C7165 uses machine learning to enhance security. Through Canon’s Security Environment Estimation Technology, optimal security settings are recommended on the operation panel, making it easy to achieve a robust level of device security, especially for companies without expertise in house. It is also possible to detect when changes occur in real time to the network, notifying the user accordingly and minimising security vulnerabilities due to missed settings. Improved reliability Machine learning is also used to support advanced maintenance, boost reliability and help support work continuity. For instance, it can predict the life of parts and help warn of any potential failures in advance, which helps businesses to minimise downtime and any potential business disruption that could arise from that. Better paper feeding Another way in which the imageFORCE C7165 helps to save time and boost production is that it enhances printing and paper feeding performance allowing businesses to work faster – quickly creating high quality materials in the office.
