Canon Combines Speed and Ease of Use in the Latest Range of Colour Laser Printers to Help Businesses Raise Productivity
Delivering exceptional usability, the new imageCLASS LBP611Cn, LBP613Cdw and LBP654Cx provide SOHOs and SMEs with intuitive user interface and connectivity
SINGAPORE, 01 Aug 2017 – Canon today announced the launch of the imageCLASS LBP611Cn, LBP613Cdw and LBP654Cx, three high-performing A4 colour laser single-function printers ideal for Small Office Home Offices (SOHOs), Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and workgroups within large enterprises. Designed to provide ultimate ease of use and improve workplace productivity, the printers offer easy network connections and significant cost savings while producing consistently brilliant-hued business documents.
"Amid challenging market conditions, it is important for businesses to support productive working practices to stay ahead of the competition," said Mr. Satoru Takeda, Vice President of Regional CII, Canon Singapore. "Packed with connectivity capabilities and a revolutionary V² Colour Technology, the new printers promise readily available, outstanding colour printouts. Businesses can expect simplified work processes with a wide array of efficiency-enhancing features, and improved profitability when users devote more time in meaningful core functions instead."
High-speed and high-quality colour printing
Built to handle the growing burden of workloads in fast-paced office environments, the latest imageCLASS printers deliver impressive colour printing with remarkable print speeds of up to 27 pages per minute (ppm) for LBP654Cx, and 18 ppm for the LBP610 series. The new printers adopt the V² Colour profile from the award-winning imageRUNNER ADVANCE Generation 3 multi-function devices, producing vivid and vibrant business documents in deeper and richer hues for effective communications.
Improved usability for greater user convenience
Equipped with a 5-line LCD display, both the imageCLASS LBP611Cn and LBP613Cdw enable easy configuration of device settings and preferences for added convenience. The imageCLASS LBP654Cx further enhances user experience with a large 5-inch colour LCD touchscreen with intuitive icons, on-screen QWERTY keyboard and customisable home screen display.
The imageCLASS printers present an innovative solution in facilitating a hassle-free toner replacement process. The printers automatically remove the protective toner seals during the setup of new toner cartridges, minimising the handling of cartridges and allowing work to resume quickly with minimal interruptions.
The new printer lineup offers various connectivity features that help users perform print jobs conveniently. All three models support Gigabit Ethernet network connections, while the imageCLASS LBP613Cdw and LBP654Cx come built-in with wireless LAN for seamless wireless connections along with Direct Connection capabilities.
Incorporating a new QR Code scan and NFC Touch Print features, the imageCLASS LBP654Cx ensures easy device pairing for mobile printing with the Canon PRINT Business app. Other mobile printing solutions supported by the printers include Canon Print Service, AirPrint™, MOPRIA®, Google Cloud Print and Windows® 10 Mobile, enabling users to carry out day-to-day tasks with absolute ease.
Cost and workflow efficiencies with smart functionalities
With new high-yield colour toner cartridges made available to all three printers, users can now print more documents in between replacements. The increased page yields translate to lower cost per print that help businesses save on running costs. The secure print function addresses concerns over leaking confidential information by limiting the access of sensitive printed documents to authorised users only. It also prevents incidences of uncollected printouts, helping to reduce paper consumption effectively.
The imageCLASS LBP654Cx features an innovative Application Library introduced to help users work smarter and more efficiently. With the Print Template application, users can store frequently-used form templates with pre-defined settings and print readily as and when required, eliminating paper wastage with pre-printed forms and the need for sending repeated print jobs. The Standby Slide application allows users to personalise the printers by creating customised screen savers, such as displaying corporate logo on the operational panel.
