The next generation 
imageRUNNER ADVANCE
Information defines success
It is often said that information is power, 
but today’s forward-thinking organisations 
appreciate that information per se isn’t an 
asset. Now successful businesses must be 
able to gather and present information 
instantly, share it quickly with those that need 
it, and keep it secure from those that don’t.  
As information today takes multiple forms 
and co-exists in various locations – from 
employees’ desks and office cabinets to cloud 
servers and mobile devices – getting things 
right poses a sizeable challenge. 
More than ever before, documents are the 
conduits of this information. They convey 
emotion, communicate ideas, persuade, 
teach and inform – both electronically and  
in hard copy. That’s why it’s crucial to  
employ a document and print platform  
that allows you to manage documents  
and information in the most efficient and 
effective ways possible. 
The next-generation 
imageRUNNER ADVANCE
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE is an  
intelligent document communication 
platform designed to support the goals  
of your business and to be adaptive to the 
fast-changing environment we live in.It is 
built to complement every stage of the 
document lifecycle: from creation to 
management, output to archival,  
whilst supporting your security and 
environmental goals. 
For every work environment
From small workgroups and offices to large 
departments or print rooms, the versatile and 
extensive imageRUNNER ADVANCE range is 
designed to address the document-handling 
needs of every working environment. 
Whether high quality colour or efficient  
black and white output, low or high volume, 
there is an imageRUNNER ADVANCE that  
can be tailored to meet your output and  
capture requirement . 
The way we work today would have been unthinkable 20 years ago. 
Flexible start times, working from home, mobile workers who share 
desks, and employees who cross international boundaries yet interact 
as if they were in the same room. Today businesses must be able to 
respond quickly; not just to the fast-evolving demands of customers 
but also to the fast-developing opportunities that technology plays in 
creating competitive advantage.

Doing business with fewer resources, or in less time, is always a hot to\
pic at 
management meetings. When designing the imageRUNNER ADVANCE, the 
same was true at Canon. How can we help your business be more effective 
by being more productive? The outcome is a range that constantly impress\
es, 
getting the job done quicker and more easily than ever before.
Next-level 
productivity
Ease of use
A large user interface is the focal point of 
every device. The high definition colour touch 
screen makes carrying out tasks effortless, 
while the tilt function gives users the freedom 
to adjust the screen angle as best suits. 
Menus are logically structured and intuitive 
making task completion simple for novices, 
with a built-in tutorial and help information 
selectable, should further guidance be needed.
The entire imageRUNNER ADVANCE range 
is built using a common platform and 
operating principles, so once familiar 
with one device, you can use any other, 
making multi-device deployments easy 
to implement.
Advanced document capture
Each device can act as a hub for document 
capture and digitisation of workflows through 
its powerful scanning capabilities. With 
standard support for both optical character 
recognition and Office Open XML formats 
such as PowerPoint or Word, you can capture 
and reuse paper information within any 
electronic workflow. Image readers 
simultaneously scan both sides of paper for 
super-quick results, and you can easily send 
scanned documents to a multitude of 
destinations including e-mail, fax, folder,  
FTP and Google Drive™.
For complete process or workflow 
optimisation, all iR-ADV devices integrate 
tightly with a range of powerful Canon  
and third party output and information 
management software thanks to the 
embedded MEAP and MEAP Web  
application platforms.
Support for mobile working
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE provides 
scalable support for mobile and flexible 
working practices to increase workforce 
efficiency. Powerful MEAP applications allow 
users to print from any Google Cloud Print 
enabled web and mobile app, or scan to and 
print from iPad, iPhone and Android mobile 
devices. Alternatively, within Canon’s 
uniFLOW solution, centralised mobile  
printing capabilities allow users to print  
many file formats, from any platform and to 
any device - all without compromising 
security or cost control. 
Every imageRUNNER ADVANCE features a large intuitive high definition colour touch screen.

52% who use smartphones for 
work said they can’t currently print 
from their device, but want to.
IDC Hardcopy Device Usage - Effect of Mobility On Print, 
March 2011
The look and feel of the screen can be personalised for each user, and personal workflows can be set to increase convenience and productivity. 
Create personal workflows
Every imageRUNNER ADVANCE device is 
designed to be shared, but also provides 
opportunities for a unique, personal 
experience. Once logged in, users are 
presented with a workspace that can be 
fine-tuned to suit. Common tasks, such as 
scanning into business applications or 
sending documents to group addresses,  
can be transformed into personal one-touch 
buttons for quick and easy execution.  
In fact, even the touch screen’s wallpaper,  
as well as button layout and size, can be 
defined so that every user’s interaction  
with the device is unique.

Professional document publishing 
Document creation and publishing takes  
on a new meaning with Canon’s iW Desktop 
document publishing software. It allows you 
to effortlessly take files created in different 
applications (such as Word or Excel), combine 
and edit them with drag-and-drop simplicity, 
before applying finishing. In this way, 
impressive, professional-looking customised 
sales proposals, reports, training materials, 
and more can be produced in minutes rather 
than hours. 
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE Quick Printing 
Tool also allows you to print, fax or convert 
documents to PDF files without opening 
the native application and printer driver – 
another time-saving benefit. Plus, PDFs  
can be compressed and annotated by  
different users, allowing collaborative 
workflows and proofing processes to  
be simply established.
Personalised documents
With iW Desktop’s variable data printing 
it’s easy to create personalised versions  
of your document in an instant - simply  
drag and drop variable text fields into  
your document and iW Desktop will  
create personalised versions for you  
based on a simple Excel or CSV file. 
Microsoft Office Integration
You have spent time creating your  
documents in Microsoft Office - now 
make them stand out with quick and  
easy finishing. With iW Desktop’s Office  
Toolbar you can apply your own finishing 
templates directly from within Microsoft 
Word, PowerPoint or Excel. This means 
finished documents can be created in 
seconds, without having to navigate  
through printer driver settings.
Communication 
that differentiates 
iW Desktop enables easy creation of professional finished documents through 
combining and editing files and pages from various applications.

Advanced cost control
In a fast-changing world, maintaining control of critical processes and \
keeping operating costs low is a pressing issue for businesses. When it \
comes to document output and management, the imageRUNNER 
ADVANCE provides all the tools you need to stay in control – whether you\
 
are a small business with just a few employees or a multinational 
operating across borders.
Control access
The award-wining Universal Login Manger is 
a unique server-less application that enables 
controlled device access, based on local 
device authentication or using Active 
Directory. Authentication at the device can be 
as simple or as sophisticated as you require,  
for example from touching your avatar  
on the screen to using PIN codes and 
passwords or user proximity cards. 
Track and control activity
It’s easy to monitor the activity of users 
within your organisation through reports, 
and you can use the information to identify 
potential areas where savings can be 
achieved. For example, by encouraging more 
double-sided printing or printing in black 
and white. Identified action areas can be 
implemented using the built-in Access 
Management System, which allows you to 
apply restrictions to certain device functions 
such as scan and send, or copy and print in 
colour on a per user basis. This helps to 
control costs and also adds another level  
of security around your device. 
Ultimate control with uniFLOW
For businesses that demand the highest 
levels of control, Canon’s uniFLOW solution 
can be configured together with the 
imageRUNNER ADVANCE. This provides 
sophisticated cost tracking and accounting 
capabilities, including detailed reporting  
and cost centre selection for cost allocation. 
Intelligent routing enables the administrator 
to define how documents are printed when 
certain conditions are matched, and 
automatically redirect print jobs to the most 
efficient device on the network, reducing 
overall print costs.
