Canon, world leader in imaging solutions, has been recognised by Buyers Laboratory Inc.(BLI) with two “Outstanding Achievement Awards” for its recently launched Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE print platform.
Launched to the Middle East market in November, the award winning imageRunner Advance platform caters for organisations of all sizes, from SMEs to large corporates, helping companies across the region become more efficient through easier integration into their document workflows as well as achieving lower operating costs, improved document security and a lower environmental impact.
BLI, the world’s leading independent evaluator honours the most innovative products and solutions in the market with its seasonal “Fall 2009 Outstanding Achievement Awards”, and recognised the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform for its “ease of use” and “outstanding scanning capabilities”.
BLI European Laboratory and Research Manager David Sweetnam said, “The process of converting hard-copy documents into digital files has never been quicker or easier than with the imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform.
As softcopy and hardcopy convergence continues to be a mission-critical workflow for companies, Canon has raised the bar for scanning features on its next generation imageRUNNER ADVANCE print platform.”
BLI recognised Canon’s imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform for its usability; enabling users to store their own personal workflows and processes, including all settings and destinations, as a single one-touch button.
The new QuickMenu greatly enhances ease of use as personal workflows are linked to the user account and can be accessed via the console control panel.
BLI also felt the control panel more intuitive than ever before, aided by a large touch screen.
Canon was also recognised for the host of new scanning. The new platform enables users to scan paper documents quickly and to a multitude of destinations.
Incorporating new file formats which include Adobe® PDF, Office Open XML and Reader Extensions, Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE makes it easy for users to work effortlessly with hardcopy documents, mark-up and apply notes, insert annotations or save documents for long term archival.
Nicholas van Santen, CBS Marketing Manager, Canon Middle East comments, “Documents are the lifeblood of any organisation and handling hard copy and electronic documents is an integral part of office life.
By automating paper-intensive document processes through powerful scanning functionality and a new user-friendly interface, Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE enables workforces to become more productive.”
Van Santen continues, “We see the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE as a truly groundbreaking technology and are excited that BLI has already acknowledged its ease of use, and shown that this range of devices can simplify the way organisations work in the future.”
Test reports are in progress and will be available upon request.
