image quality

The imagePRESS C6000 digital press delivers revolutionary technology to the high-end, high-quality digital color printing market.
Superb Image Reproduction
Color images intensify the communication power of printed documents but only if they are accurately reproduced. The Canon brand is synonymous with image quality because of our extensive R&D investment in photography, color science, and imaging. With a true 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution and 256 levels of grayscale, the imagePRESS C6000 digital press not only produces clean, sharp text, but also highly detailed images with vivid hues, a wide tonal range, and clean, smooth gradients. Skin tones look lifelike, memory colors are accurate, and image details are sharp and clear. The imagePRESS C6000 digital press makes it easier to deliver the level of quality that will keep your customers coming back for more!
Amazing Color Consistency Output That Rivals Offset
Your customers expect that each piece in a print run will look just like every other piece. Although this sounds simple enough, its notparticularly when youre working with digital color images, a variety of paper types, and varying environmental conditions.

The revolutionary imaging, fusing, and toner technologies developed for the imagePRESS product line help generate output that looks and feels like offset printing. Canons oil-free V Toner uses exceptionally small particles (averaging 5.5 microns) and, when combined with Canons proprietary Dual Fusing technology and Media Library, the toner lays evenly and flat across the sheet, producing sharp, vivid, dense images with a smooth finish. Also, Gloss Optimization helps ensure that you wont see any differences between the gloss level between the printed and unprinted areas on a sheet. Nor will you feel raised toner. Your clients can confidently use output from the imagePRESS C6000 digital press to relay their messages to their customers.
The imagePRESS C6000 digital press incorporates three sophisticated technologies that help ensure consistent color throughout a print run. Automatic Press Calibration maintains the necessary color densities without constant oversight by press operators. Advanced Developer Technology constantly supplies fresh developer. This helps create consistent color across the width of every page. Real-Time Calibration measures color density levels while the job is in progress. Automatic adjustments help ensure that the first print in a job matches the last print and every print in between. Together, these technologies help ensure that all prints maintain a level of consistency that your most demanding customers expect.

productivity

Built for Reliable, Efficient Performance, The imagePRESS C6000 digital press keeps jobs moving
Its designed for dependable, predictable performance on all types of jobs.
The imagePRESS C6000 digital press is engineered to minimize slowdowns or downtime that can limit your potential for achieving the greatest possible returns from your investment in a digital press.
In-Track Registration and Timing Sensors
These sensors help ensure that each sheet enters the press straight, centered, and at exactly the right moment so that images and text will be placed in the same location on each sheet. As a result, offline finishing is much easier to manage.

On-the-Fly Paper and Toner Replacement
You dont have to stop the press to refill paper trays, replace toner bottles, or change the waste toner bottle. Keeping the presses running helps you deliver more jobs in the timeframe each customer demands.
Automatic Duplexing and Perfecting
The Canon imagePRESS C6000 digital press can auto duplex/perfect stocks up to 110 lb. Cover (300gsm) and 13 x 19.2 in size, giving you the latitude to accept almost any type of job a customer might request.

Toner Station

Multifeed Detection Technology
In the unlikely event that more than one sheet enters the press at the same time, Multifeed Detection diverts the sheets to the Escape Tray on top of the POD Deck without stopping the press. Press operators can then focus on getting other jobs in and out of your shop, without having to waste time clearing paper jams.
Precision Front-to-Back Registration

Press Console

When images and text are printed on both sides of a sheet, the advanced registration technology helps ensure that your front-to-back registration will be accurate. This helps provide the professional look your customers expect in their finished documents.
Advanced Feeding Technology
Press operators dont need to intervene as often when paper stocks feed reliably. To help ensure more stability as each sheet is fed into the press, the Suction Feeding technology picks up the top sheet with air rather than rollers. Enhanced Air Assist and Air Separation Technologies also help prevent papers from double feeding by minimizing paper friction and keeping sheets separated.

The POD Decks hold any supported stock, in any tray, up to 13" x 19.2" Each POD Deck has three trays with a total capacity of 4,000 sheets.** Add a second POD Deck to increase total capacity to 10,000 sheets.**
Twin Red Laser Imaging produces precise, clear, higher-resolution images. The E Drum was engineered for optimum image transfer and durability. The Standard Paper Capacity is 2,000 sheets.** 1,000 sheets of any supported stock fit in each of the two standard trays.

PRODUCTIVITY

BUILT FOR RELIABLE, EFFICIENT PERFORMANCE, THE imagePRESS C6000 DIGITAL PRESS KEEPS JOBS MOVING
Its designed for dependable, predictable performance on all types of jobs.
The imagePRESS C6000 digital press is engineered to minimize slowdowns or downtime that can limit your potential for achieving the greatest possible returns from your investment in a digital press.

IN-TRACK REGISTRATION AND TIMING SENSORS
These sensors help ensure that each sheet enters the press straight, centered, and at exactly the right moment so that images and text will be placed in the same location on each sheet. As a result, offline finishing is much easier to manage.
ON-THE-FLY PAPER AND TONER REPLACEMENT
You dont have to stop the press to refill paper trays, replace toner bottles, or change the waste toner bottle. Keeping the presses running helps you deliver more jobs in the timeframe each customer demands.
AUTOMATIC DUPLEXING AND PERFECTING
The Canon imagePRESS C6000 digital press can auto duplex/perfect stocks up to 110 lb. Cover (300gsm) and 13 x 19.2 in size, giving you the latitude to accept almost any type of job a customer might request.

Toner Station

MULTIFEED DETECTION TECHNOLOGY
In the unlikely event that more than one sheet enters the press at the same time, Multifeed Detection diverts the sheets to the Escape Tray on top of the POD Deck without stopping the press. Press operators can then focus on getting other jobs in and out of your shop, without having to waste time clearing paper jams.
PRECISION FRONT-TO-BACK REGISTRATION

Press Console

When images and text are printed on both sides of a sheet, the advanced registration technology helps ensure that your front-to-back registration will be accurate. This helps provide the professional look your customers expect in their finished documents.
ADVANCED FEEDING TECHNOLOGY
Press operators dont need to intervene as often when paper stocks feed reliably. To help ensure more stability as each sheet is fed into the press, the Suction Feeding technology picks up the top sheet with air rather than rollers. Enhanced Air Assist and Air Separation Technologies also help prevent papers from double feeding by minimizing paper friction and keeping sheets separated.

VERSATILITY

CANONS PAPER-HANDLING, COPYING, AND FINISHING CAPABILITIES LET YOU ACCEPT A WIDE VARIETY OF JOBS
No matter what type of job your customer requests, the imagePRESS C6000 digital press gives you the versatility to say, Yes, I can do that!
The press can handle the applications that are most in demand today, such as direct mail, business cards, newsletters, brochures, sell sheets, and self-mailers. The imagePRESS C6000 digital press can also help you offer new applications and enter new markets.
MANY DIFFERENT PAPER TYPES HARD-COPY REPRODUCTIONS
If a customer wants to reproduce copies of an existing document, you can do that too! With the optional Image Reader and DADF in the imagePRESS C6000 digital press, you can convert hard-copy documents to digital format for editing and production. Also, when it comes to connectivity, the imagePRESS C6000 digital press offers efficient document distribution with Canons Color Universal Send technology. It provides comprehensive distribution of information simultaneously to multiple locations across the hall or around the globe.

MULTIPLE FINISHING OPTIONS
Your customers are accustomed to selecting their own paper because they know that stock affects the overall impact of the finished document. Canons imagePRESS C6000 digital press can handle an extremely wide selection of weights, finishes, types, and sizes. The press can accept sheets ranging from 7.2 x 7.2 up to 13 x 19.2 and any custom size in between. It also supports everything from lightweight 17 lb. Bond to heavy 110 lb. Cover stock. The two standard trays and POD Deck can be easily adjusted to accommodate any of the stocks the imagePRESS C6000 digital press can handle.
MORE PAPER, READY FOR PRINTING
For the ultimate in production versatility, your Canon imagePRESS C6000 digital press can be equipped with a wide range of finishing options, including multiple highcapacity stackers, a saddle finisher or perfect binder for creating booklets, a plain finisher for basic stapling, a hole puncher for documents that will be inserted into binders, a booklet trimmer for full-bleed saddle-finished booklets, and a cover inserter for efficiently adding heavier weight covers to saddle-finished booklets.
Profitable digital printing requires being prepared to handle a variety of different jobs every day. The economical 3,500sheet Paper Deck employs Air Assist Technology for reliable feeding of numerous stocks up to 110 lb. Cover and as large as 13 x 19. As your business grows, so can your press. When you use Canons optional POD Deck in conjunction with the two paper trays included with the imagePRESS C6000 digital press, you can have five different stocks ready to go at all times. The POD Deck includes three trays: two that hold up to 1,000 sheets and one that holds up to 2,000 sheets.
