I’ll be taking you through some
of the paper handling and finishing options
of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 Series.
We’ll also be walking through some
of the exciting new finishing features
that we’re offering on these new models.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 Series
comes standard with three paper sources
and a paper capacity of up to 1,200 sheets.
Cassette One holds up to 550 sheets of letter-sized paper.
Cassette Two holds up to 550 sheets
of up to 12-inch by 18-inch-sized paper.
This tray also supports envelopes
with the included envelope feeding attachment.
The Multi-Purpose Tray holds up to 100 sheets.
One of three options can be attached
to create the base of the unit:
a Cabinet, a Cassette Feeding Unit,
or the new High-Capacity Cassette Feeding Unit.
While the Cabinet does not add
any additional paper capacity,
it provides a convenient space to store toner or paper.
The Cassette Feeding Unit
adds two additional paper cassettes
holding up to a combined 1,100 sheets
and supporting up to 12-inch by 18-inch-sized paper.
The High-Capacity Cassette Feeding Unit is a new option
that was not available on predecessor models.
It holds up to 2,450 sheets of letter-sized paper.
As you can see, the paper is loaded
on both sides of the drawer.
When the stack on the right is depleted,
the stack on the left is automatically shifted and then fed.
This new option allows for support
of up to 3,650 sheets
within the existing footprint of the device,
over 50% larger capacity than previous models.
For additional paper capacity, a side paper deck,
which holds up to 2,700 sheets, can be added.
This brings the maximum paper capacity
to 6,350 sheets.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 Series
supports an optional Inner Finisher,
which provides staple finishing
within the footprint of the main unit.
The Inner Finisher outputs to two trays
with a combined capacity of up to 545 sheets.
Unlike the predecessor model, the Inner Finisher
now supports an optional Inner Hole Puncher.
This can help save space
by allowing for two- and three-hole punching
without needing to include an external finisher.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 Series
also supports either of two optional external finishers,
Staple Finisher-Y1 or Booklet Finisher-Y1.
These optional finishers feature two trays
and support an output capacity of up to 3,250 sheets.
While the predecessor model had two moving trays,
the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5200 Series' external finishers
have one moving tray and one stationary tray.
This contributes to a reduction
in the amount of noise the finishers produce.
Both external finishers support an internal hole puncher,
available as an additional option.
The Internal Hole Puncher allows for
a smaller overall device footprint
as the predecessor models
only offered an external hole puncher.
This improvement decreases the width
of the configuration by 8.9 inches.
All finishers come standard with Staple-free Stapling.
This binds the paper together with pressure
and not the use of metal staples.
This helps cut down on staple usage,
and it's easier for users
to separate their originals later on.
When printing, this setting can be selected
from the finishing options within the driver.
When copying, you can access the staple-free finishing
from where you select your preferred finishing options.
While the UI screen indicates
that the max number of pages is five,
that is the official spec for 17-pound Bond paper,
which is not as common.
For 20-pound Bond paper, the official spec is four pages.
If you select Staple-free Stapling
for a document more than five pages,
the device will not attempt
to bind the pages together at all.
Another benefit of Staple-free Stapling
is that it makes for more efficient stacking.
Here we have side-by-side comparisons of the same document:
four pages, 50 sets.
As you see on the right,
the staple-free sets take up less space
than the traditional staple on the left.
All finishers also come standard
with a convenience stapler
which we are calling, Staple On Demand.
Say you have a user who has a stapled set of originals
that they want to make a copy of.
They simply walk up to the device,
remove the staple, and scan their original.
After the copy is complete,
the user can easily re-staple their original,
right at the device.
You can either push the green button,
or it will automatically staple after a set amount of time.
The default is three seconds,
but this can be adjusted from one to five seconds.
The Inner Finisher supports stapling of up to 40 sheets
and the external finishers
support stapling of up to 50 sheets.
As you can see, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 Series
offers impressive paper handling
and finishing options with some really valuable new features
compared to the predecessor models.
