Basic network connectivity is just that—basic. To truly
support customer requirements, networked devices must
be easy to install, seamlessly integrate with existing
network-management applications, and permit manage-
ment from anywhere in the enterprise. Canon’s comprehensive
solution to these customer requirements is embodied
within Canon’s suite of software utilities as outlined
below:
Remote UI
:™ Canon’s Remote UI utility transforms a
user’s desktop into a remote access center for the
imageRUNNER 5000. By entering the IP address of the
device from a standard web browser, users gain instant
access to device status and settings, job-management
functions, user Mail Boxes and more–with no additional
hardware or software required.
NetSpot Console
: NetSpot Console is a web-based instal-
lation and management utility capable of installing and
managing Canon networked systems, including the
imageRUNNER 5000, on most customer networks.
Through NetSpot Console, network administrators are
provided a convenient, platform-independent utility to
install and manage Canon devices from anywhere within
the enterprise. In addition to basic installation support,
NetSpot Console also delivers administrator alerts,
notifying administrators of device status conditions such
as low toner, paper jams, and others. For added conve-
nience, NetSpot Console is also capable of managing
third-party printers complying with the standard Printer
MIB, thereby consolidating network device management
via one utility.
NetSpot Job Monitor
: To track the progress and manage
print jobs, Canon supplies NetSpot Job Monitor. Using
this utility, end-users can track the progress of jobs sent
for printing. NetSpot Job Monitor runs as an automated
task in the Windows
®
System Tray, and can be configured
to report job conditions based on administrator or end-
user preferences. Significant to NetSpot Job Monitor is its
ability to deliver end-of-job notification to end-users,
ensuring that they are always informed of the completion
of submitted work.
