Print Speed - Canon imagePRESS C7000VP Customer Expectation Document

14.1 Print Speed

One of the key features of the imagePRESS C7000VP is its print speed
technology. The imagePRESS C7000VP maintains print speed regardless of
paper weight. A letter-sized sheet of bond paper weighing 17 lb (64 g/m²) will print
at 70 ppm. Also, the same sized sheet at 110 lb cover (300 g/m²) will print at
70 ppm.
Most stocks will maintain their speed regardless of their weight. However, a few
stocks require extra time when passing through the second fusing section, which
may result in a decrease in print speed. This applies to all paper stocks smaller
than 8.5" x 11", and when heavier weights are placed into the machine. The fixing
rollers cannot disperse the heat uniformly when paper smaller than 11" (LTR and
LGL) is run through the press. This will cause blistering and image deformity.
The table below describes the printing speeds one should expect when printing on
the indicated paper size and weight. "SB" in the table below refers to the optional
Stack Bypass-A1.

IMPORTANT
If you copy/print in the conditions below, you may not achieve the copy/print
speeds in the tables above:
− If you use 20 to 28 lb bond (80 to 105 g/m
67 lb cover (181 g/m
− If you use 28 to 34 lb bond (106 to 127 g/m
140 lb index (257 g/m
− If you feed papers of differing lengths together at the same time.
− If you copy/print the main document as one-sided and copy/print the cover and
sheet insertions as two-sided, while bookbinding.
− If you create a saddle stitched booklet using one sheet.
− If you use tab paper and other paper types at the same time.
