Canon 5000i User Manual

At face value, the Canon imageRUNNER 5000i has

all the physical attributes of a typical multifunction

device. Looks, however, are about the only

characteristic the imageRUNNER 5000i has in

common with its peers. Yes, the 50-page-per-

minute imageRUNNER 5000i prints, copies, and

scans, but it also sets a new standard for the way

information is communicated in today’s workplace.

Using the existing infrastructure of corporate

networks and the Internet as its medium, the

imageRUNNER 5000i empowers users to distribute

hard-copy and electronic information to multiple

destinations, in multiple formats, in one operation,

from one single platform. No other device comes

close to matching the breadth of features that

come standard with the imageRUNNER 5000i.

Manage information regardless of form,
content, or location.

The Canon imageRUNNER 5000i can be accurately

described as a central communications hub for

managing, printing, and sharing information in the

networked office. With an architectural design that

enables independent hardware and software

components to function as one congruous system,

the imageRUNNER 5000i represents a new source

of freedom for its users–the freedom to work with

information the way they choose to–without being

constrained by the limitations of incompatible

or proprietary solutions inhabiting many of

today’s offices.

Canon’s Universal Send technology transforms the

imageRUNNER 5000i into a digital communications

center. As a shared networked scanning solution, the

imageRUNNER 5000i’s Universal Send capabilities

overcome functional limitations of today’s office

equipment to perform mass, multiple-routed document

distribution tasks in one simple operation through

an easy-to-use, full-color, touch-screen interface.

Moreover, all sending modes perform at a level equal or

superior to what users have come to expect from

dedicated devices. Universal Send functions, all of which

are standard on the imageRUNNER 5000i, include:

Send via E-mail –Send scanned documents as E-mail

attachments in TIFF, multipage TIFF, or PDF formats.

Send via Internet Fax – Bypass the Public Switched

Telephone Network and send scanned documents over

the Internet at no cost.

Send to a File Server – Store scanned data in a

centralized directory for archival purposes or sharing

within workgroups (FTP, Windows

®

, NetWare®).

Send to a Mail Box –Organize and archive digital

information in up to 100 Mail Boxes. Store files for

sharing, merging, printing, or sending at a later time.

Send to a Database– Use for automatic data collection

and to eliminate redundant data entry and errors.

The advanced functions of Universal Send allow users to

communicate, manage, and share information as never

before, with no additional server hardware or software

required. Universal Send also works simultaneously with

the imageRUNNER 5000i’s Print and Copy functions for

enhanced multitasking functionality.

In addition, every imageRUNNER 5000i comes

bundled with a 20-user version of eCopy

software. With Desktop, documents sent from an

imageRUNNER 5000i to a local or shared folder can be

retrieved and transformed into information that can be

easily integrated into existing business applications.

Documents can be combined, annotated or converted

to editable text, then distributed via E-mail or saved to

a company’s database, filing system, or document

management application.

The imageRUNNER 5000i is also tightly integrated

with Canon’s imageWARE Document Manager, a

centralized document management system suitable

for small offices to large enterprises. Using the

imageRUNNER 5000i’s Send to Database function,

hard-copy documents can be digitized and sent to a

centralized database for enterprise-wide access.
