As much as we love getting technical when it comes to photocopiers, we recognise that usability is equally important as the latest technology and security features. After all, unless the end-user is capable of utilising these great new features, they may as well not exist!

We are therefore delighted to announce that the Canon range of photocopiers & office printers has won the Buyers Lab International PaceSetter award for ease-of-use.

Buyers Lab highlighted Canon’s responsive control panel as one of the key features of the Canon MFP range (Multi-Functional Printer). Not only does the control panel boast several customisation features, but the user-interface is consistent across the line up, allowing employees to transition from one model to another without wasting time having to adapt to a new system.

The ability to create shortcuts for common functions, such as scanning to email, is another stand out feature of the Canon range. Customised shortcuts allow employees to minimise time wasted repeating various actions, thus increasing their productivity.

As well as the control panel and customisation options, Buyers Lab evaluated job management, feedback, media loading and misfeed removal as part of their rigorous testing routine.

The PaceSetter award winner for ease-of-use is chosen by Buyers Line International, the worlds leading independent document imaging authority. This achievement adds to Canon’s recent string of awards and cements their position as the current market leading photocopier manufacturer.
