Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What separates the Canon imagePRESS C850 from standard office multifunction printers?
  The imagePRESS C850 is engineered specifically for fast production environments, commercial print providers, quick-print vendors, and corporate departments who require absolute color accuracy and duty-cycle durability. It features production-grade alignment technology and specialized Consistently Vivid (CV) toner for texture-rich sheets and intensive print runs.
• What types of media paper stock can this digital press process safely?
  Equipped with an advanced elastic fusing belt and precise front-to-back mechanical registration tracking, this system comfortably handles textures ranging from thin text sheets, tabs, heavy cardstock varieties, clear film layouts, synthetic media, envelopes, and heavy gloss coated boards up to 110 lb. Cover (300 gsm).
• Does this print engine require an external print controller to manage files?
  Yes. To fully leverage its high-fidelity color matching and workflow capabilities, this production engine pairs with an external server module (such as an EFI Fiery or PRISMAsync architecture controller) to manage intensive multi-gigabyte graphic queues, perform color transformations, and implement professional mechanical sorting profiles.
