2.2 High-Resolution Imaging System for Copied and Printed Images
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 provides a high-resolution imaging system.

This system renders images at a 1,200 x 1,200 dpi print resolution, which delivers
the highest level of speed and image quality. Object-optimized imaging also helps
to achieve superior print quality. Text and lines are processed with a high priority
given to resolution, and images and graphics are processed with a high priority
given to gradation. This high-resolution imaging system coupled with the Density
Fine Adjustment mode, a feature that refines thin, fine text, and lines while the
device is rendering images at 1,200 x 1,200 dpi, minimizes faint output and
delivers quality prints.
2.3 Image Stabilization Control
The quality of printed images is affected by changes in the environment, such as

temperature and humidity, in which the machine is installed. It is also affected by
the deterioration of image formation parts through extended use. The
imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 overcomes these issues, stabilizes image
production, and maintains color consistency with features, such as Auto Gradation
Adjustment, Real-Time Calibration, and accurate registration.
2.3.1 Automatic Gradation Adjustment
Automatic Gradation Adjustment is a function that helps to automatically adjust

toner density. Select from the Quick Adjustment mode or Full Adjustment mode.
The Quick Adjustment mode quickly and simply adjusts the gradation, density,
and color by performing calibration without outputting test prints. The Full
Adjustment mode performs a precise calibration by outputting and scanning test
prints. For more information on the Automatic Gradation Adjustment modes, see
“Adjustment/Maintenance,” in the Settings/Registration e-Manual included with
the machine.
2.3.2 Real-Time Calibration
Real-Time Calibration helps to maintain color consistency by making automatic,

real-time adjustments during print runs. Density level measurements of cyan,
magenta, yellow, and black toner are taken every 100 pages during a print job.
The patches of each color are imaged on the ITB (Intermediate Transfer Belt),
and sensors measure the density to adjust the toner gradation and density.
2.3.3 Accurate Registration
Image registration can be finely adjusted by manually specifying an exact

adjustment value for every user-specified paper type. For more information, see
“Printing a Test Page to Adjust the Image Position on a Custom Paper Type,” in
the Settings/Registration e-Manual included with the machine.

2.4 Professional Input/Output Accessories
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 features many robust input and output
accessories that allow customers working in light-production, graphic arts or highly
productive office environments to complete large jobs directly from the machine.
For more information on the input and output accessories that can be attached to
the machine, see “Specifications,” on p. 28.

2.5 Storage Capabilities
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 offers four built-in storage methods with
flexible linkage to external systems for storing scanned documents and accessing
stored files.
• Mail Box
• Advanced Box
• Network
• Memory Media
IMPORTANT
• Canon U.S.A., Inc. is not responsible for any damages caused to user data that
is stored on the hard disk drive of the machine. It is the customer’s responsibility
to create and maintain a data backup plan. Canon U.S.A., Inc. offers several
security options to enhance document handling and storage security needs. See
“System Options,” on p. 41.
• It is strongly recommended to back up the data stored on the hard disk drive.
2.5.1 Mail Box
The Mail Box is a data storage area that stores and handles files for printing.
The Mail Box function enables users to store files that are scanned with this
machine, or data sent from a personal computer via the printer driver. The stored
files can be printed anytime using the desired settings. Also, the file format of the
scanned documents can be converted into another format, such as TIFF, PDF,
XPS, and JPEG, to send via e-mail or fax by using the Send function. Up to 100
mailboxes can be used, and a name or password can be set for each mailbox. In
addition, various editing features are available, such as merging separately
stored files into one file, and erasing unnecessary pages from a file.

2.5.2 Advanced Box
Advanced Box is a storage area in the machine that stores scanned documents
and Microsoft Office files that can be used on a computer. There are two types of
storage in the Advanced Box: the Shared Space and the Personal Space.
Shared Folders
• An open access storage space. Ideal as a shared storage space by multiple
users (for example, team, group, or department members).
• Subfolders can be created.
• Up to 1,000 files/folders (main and sub) can be saved in each level.
Personal Folders
• Access is restricted to the set user only. Authentication must be set up to
enable a personal folder.
• Subfolders can be created.
• Up to 1,000 files/folders (main and sub) can be saved in each level.
Documents can be scanned with this machine, stored in the PDF, XPS, JPEG, or
TIFF file format, and can also be previewed or printed on this machine at any
time with the desired print settings.
The Advanced Box can be opened to the public as an SMB (Server Message
Block) server or WebDAV (Distributed Authoring and Versioning) server. This
enables the user to access the Advanced Box from a computer, and store and
share files in their native format, such as MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. To
view and print these native format files from the Advanced Box, the user must
access them via a computer.
The standard storage space for the Advanced Box is approximately 15 GB.
However, the standard Advanced Box storage capacity can be increased to 629
GB if the optional 2.5inch/1 TB HDD is installed.
IMPORTANT
It is strongly recommended to protect the Advanced Box folders from viruses. If
the user’s computer system has an antivirus system in place, add the
Advanced Box folders to its list of folders to scan and protect.
2.5.3 Network
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 is equipped with a collaboration function

that enables it to be connected to other imageRUNNER ADVANCE machines via
the SMB/WebDAV protocol. When the machine is connected to other machines,
a user can select an Advanced Box in another machine (if it is on the network) to
store files or print a file that is stored in another machine on this machine.

2.5.4 Memory Media
Memory Media is storage that can be used by attaching a USB memory stick to
the USB port on the control panel. A document can be scanned with this machine
and stored in memory media in the PDF, XPS, JPEG, or TIFF file format, and
also the file stored in the memory media can be printed on this machine at any
time with the desired print settings.
If the optional USB Device Port-A2 and Multimedia Reader/Writer-A2 are

installed, an SD card, Memory Stick, Compact Flash card, and Microdrive can be
used. For more information, see “USB Device Port-A2,” on p. 48, and
“Multimedia Reader/Writer-A2,” on p. 48.

2.6 Security Features
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 includes a comprehensive set of security

features, such as Device Authentication, Data Security, Document Security, and
Network Security.
2.6.1 Device Authentication
There are two ways to authenticate users at the device.
• Department ID Management - Register a Department ID and password for

each department, and manage the machine by limiting its use to only those
who enter the correct Department ID and password. Department IDs and
passwords for up to 1,000 departments can be registered. Use Department ID
Management to keep track of the copy, scan, and print totals for each
department. The following settings can be specified:
Turn Department ID Management 'On' or 'Off'.
Register the Department ID and password.
Set page limits for scans, prints, and copies.
Set whether to use Department ID Management for the Mail Box, Send, and
Network Scan functions. If the Copy function is specified, it is automatically
restricted when Department ID Management is set.
Set up copy, scan, and print restrictions.
• SSO-H (Single Sign-On H) - A user authentication system that enables the

functions of the machine and MEAP applications, etc., to be used after being
authenticated once. SSO-H has two compatible user authentication systems
(Domain Authentication and Local Device Authentication). Domain
Authentication is linked to a domain controller in a Windows Active Directory
environment on a network. Local Device Authentication uses a database inside
the machine to authenticate users. Administrators can use one of these two
systems or both at the same time. The Access Management System is a
subset of the SSO-H authentication system.
• Access Management System - The standard AMS (Access Management

System) allows system administrators to restrict various Copy, Print, Fax,
Scan, Mail Box, and Send functions that each user can use. Once the AMS is
activated, a Function Level Log-In can be used to authenticate users for
specific machine features only. SSO-H must be activated to use the Log-In
feature for the AMS.

2.6.2 Data Security
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 offers several ways to protect and secure
data. It is strongly recommended that a back up and security system is in place,
along with an antivirus protection system to make sure that no data on the hard
disk drives is lost, stolen, or compromised.
CAUTION
Canon U.S.A., Inc. is not liable for any damages resulting from the loss or
corruption of data. (See page 5 for further details.)
• Document Scan Lock Kit-B1 - The optional Document Scan Lock Kit-B1
embeds a code all over a printed document, which identifies which printer
printed the document, and enables the user to track who printed the document.
The Document Scan Lock system is tamper resistant, and if someone tries to
copy the document, the Document Scan Lock system checks to see if the
person has the proper permissions to reproduce it. A password may be
required to enable the reproduction of the document. For more information on
the Document Scan Lock Kit-B1, see “Document Scan Lock Kit-B1,” on p. 46.

• TPM (Trusted Platform Module) - TPM is a standard security chip (tamper
resistant hardware) installed in the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270. The
TPM provides a facility for the secure generation of cryptographic keys,
encrypts information stored on the internal HDD, and decrypts information read
from the internal HDD. The public keys to encrypt confidential information are
securely controlled by the TPM chip, and they can only be decrypted if the TPM
releases the associated decryption key. If the HDD is removed from the
machine, it will be difficult to retrieve data off that HDD since the encryption key
for that data is stored in a separate location within the TPM.
CAUTION
Once the TPM setting is activated, if the end user fails to back up the
TPM key, or if the end user loses the TPM key, it may result in
permanent, unrecoverable data loss, for which Canon U.S.A., Inc. is not
liable. (See page 5 for further details.)
IMPORTANT
• If the TPM setting is activated and the TPM chip fails, the confidential
information stored on the chip can only be recovered if Canon’s service
representative replaces the TPM chip and restores the original TPM key to
the new chip. Immediately, back up the TPM key on a USB memory stick,
after the TPM setting is activated.
• Only the Administrator of the machine can back up the TPM key.
• For security reasons, the TPM key can only be backed up once. Store the
USB memory with the backup data in a safe place.
• For the back up of the TPM key, it is recommended that a USB memory stick
(supported system file: FAT32) with free space of 10 MB or more is used.
• The TPM seals the hardware components associated with the data, and the
data cannot be accessed unless the specific TPM key is issued by the TPM
chip. Therefore, setting the TPM mode to ‘On,’ may affect service procedures
and service costs (if not handled properly). It is strongly recommended that
the Administrator who has access to the TPM key be present for all service
calls to prevent the loss of data and productivity of the machine.
• Removable HDD Kit-AH1 - The optional Removable HDD Kit-AH1 provides

the capability to physically remove the hard disk drive out of the machine and
place it in a secured location. The hard disk drive can easily be removed for
secure storage on a frequent basis, and can easily be reinstalled for normal
machine use. This option provides another layer of data security for
government agencies and corporate enterprises that need to ensure that data
stored on the hard disk is physically secure when the machine is not in use. For
more information on the Removable HDD Kit-AH1, see “Removable HDD
Kit-AH1,” on p. 47.

• HDD Data Erase - The standard HDD Data Erase feature is available for those
environments requiring additional data security measures. This feature
automatically overwrites image data that is written to the hard drive following
each job performed at the machine. The HDD Data Erase feature overwrites up
to three times with random data, depending on the preferences set by the
system administrator. Other settings include the ability to overwrite once with
null data and overwrite once with random data.
IMPORTANT
An increase in the amount of times the HDD Data Erase feature overwrites
data, may result in a loss of job productivity.
• HDD Data Encryption & Mirroring Kit-C7 - The optional HDD Encryption &
Mirroring Kit-C7 is another security tool available for environments requiring
additional data security measures, and can be used in conjunction with the
HDD Data Erase feature to provide even greater security for data stored on the
internal HDD. The HDD encryption chip is Common Criteria Certified (EAL level
3), and applies 256-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption to all
data prior to being written on the HDD. This adds an additional layer of security
to files stored on the HDD. The Mirroring function provides redundancy when
utilized with an additional hard disk drive of the same storage capacity. This
preserves company data if one hard disk drive fails. For more information on
the HDD Data Encryption & Mirroring Kit-C7, see “HDD Data Encryption &
Mirroring Kit-C7,” on p. 47.

2.6.3 Document Security
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 offers several document security modes

to protect printed and distributed documents.
• PDF Visible Digital Signature - The PDF Visible Signatures mode enables the
user to view the device signature and user signature on a PDF file. Visible
digital signatures and user signatures are displayed on the first page of the
PDF file to account for the origin of the document. The system administrator of
the machine can set the Visible Signatures mode for all PDF documents or
certain PDF documents created on the machine. This mode differentiates from
the Digital Signature mode in that instead of having to access digital signature
information from the document properties from the File menu, this information is
displayed prominently on the first page of the document in the background, and
is printed along with the document data, thereby deterring improper distribution
of sensitive documents.
• Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES Server Integration - Adobe

LiveCycle enables Administrators to set automatic document privileges and
apply security policies by creating Policy Protected PDF files on the machine,
even after document creation, using the Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management
ES Server. Once a Policy Protected PDF document is created on the machine
with this feature enabled, the PDF extension in Adobe Reader, upon attempt by
a user to open a protected PDF, contacts the Rights Management Server to
check the latest authorized users, expiration, auditing, and watermarking
policies set by the administrator. These latest policies are then enforced by that
application to ensure the information in that document remains secure.
IMPORTANT
• To generate a PDF linked with Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES
Server, the Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES Server must be
licensed, pre-configured by a system administrator, and the machine must be
connected to the Intranet or Internet.
• Encrypted PDF and PDF/A-1b documents are not compatible with Adobe
LiveCycle Rights Management ES Server.

2.6.4 Network Security
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 secures network communications by

using IP Address and MAC (Media Access Control) Address filters, encryption
and authentication, and network port and application access control.
• IP Address and MAC Address Filters - IP Address Filter performs a function

similar to many firewalls. It permits or rejects incoming packets from up to eight
IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses. Also, IP address filters to outbound
connections can be applied. For example, if such functions as Remote Copy
and Universal Send are used, system administrators can block or restrict users
from sending files to specific IP addresses. This helps to minimize the risk of
data being sent out of the company to systems that are not trusted.
MAC Address Filter permits or rejects access for up to 100 MAC addresses. It
is useful for environments that use DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) for IP address assignments. If DHCP leases expire and a new IP
address is issued to a certain system, the filter can still identify the system’s
MAC address, and permit or reject access to the machine. MAC addresses can
be easily added, edited, or deleted through the Remote UI. MAC Address Filter
takes a higher priority than IP Address Filter, which prevents unknown systems
from attacking the machine.
• Encryption and Authentication - SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protects data

transferred over the network by encrypting file names and formats. The System
Administrator can also add IPSec capabilities to secure Internet Protocol (IP)
communications from lower layer protocols, such as TCP (Transmission
Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) by authenticating and
encrypting each IP packet of a data stream across the Internet.
Additionally, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 supports IEEE 802.1x,

which provides port-based authentication. Authentication involves
communications between a supplicant, authenticator, and authentication server.
The supplicant is authentication software on a client device. The client device
(the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270) needs the supplicant to provide
credentials, such as user names/passwords or digital certificates, to the
authenticator (a wireless access point). The authenticator then forwards the
credentials to the authentication server (generally a RADIUS database) for
verification. If the credentials are valid in the authentication server database,
the client device is allowed to access resources located on the protected side of
the network.
• Network Port and Application Access Control - Network Port and

Application Access Control enables system administrators to set up only the
necessary protocols, such as IPP, FTP, SNTP, SNMP, RAW, LPD, and others
for transferring data. These protocols can be switched on and off. The
administrator can also disable unneeded services, protocols, ports, and the
potential paths of attack so that attacks on the machine can be minimized.

3.3 Installation and Service Space
The installation site must provide enough space for unrestricted operation,
maintenance work, and proper ventilation. The machine dimensions are in
diagrams on the following pages. Every attempt should be made to install the
equipment in a room that allows for the proper servicing and maintenance of the
equipment, and ensures that issues, such as ventilation, odors, and dust
accumulation are not a concern.
IMPORTANT
• Keep the back of the machine at least 4” (100 mm) away from a wall.
• Make sure that approximately 19 3/4” (500 mm) of space is left around the front,
left, and right sides of the machine for the proper servicing of the equipment.
• The floor must be level (with no bows) and flat for the stabilization and support of
the machine.
• The minimum doorway opening that the machine passes through prior to
installation must be at least 36” wide.
• The machine should not be moved once it is in place.
3.3.1 Installation Space Diagrams
The approximate installation space requirements may differ, depending on how

the machine is configured and the optional accessories attached.

• There needs to be approximately 1/5” (5 mm) of space in between each
accessory attached.

3.4 Recommended Floor Space Requirements
For a fully configured imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270, it is recommended that

there be at least 13.1’ (W) x 7’ (D) of level floor space.
13.1’ (4 m)
7’ (2.1 m)
IMPORTANT
• The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 was created to be modular in design.
Floor space, budget, monthly copy/print volume, and applications will determine
which configuration will work best.
• Only one optional finisher unit (Staple Finisher-L1 or Booklet Finisher-L1) can be
attached to the machine.
• Only one optional insertion unit (Document Insertion Unit-J1 or Document
Insertion/Folding Unit-G1) can be attached to the machine.
• Only one optional paper feeding unit (POD Deck Lite-A1 or Paper Deck Unit-C1)
can be attached to the machine.
3.5 Floor Structure Requirements
The floor on which this machine is installed must have strength of at least
61.5 lb/ft2 (300 kg/m2). If the floor does not have this level of strength, consult a
building contractor before installing the machine.
The weight of the machine is distributed on the floor through the adjusters and
wheels. Do not install the machine on an unstable floor or platform.

3.6 Network Interface Connectivity
A standard Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-TX interface jack (RJ-45) for device

installation, monitoring, Mail Box and Advanced Box access via the Remote UI,
ships standard with all configurations. A Wireless LAN connection can be obtained
with the optional Silex Wireless Bridge SX-2500CG. (See “Silex Wireless Bridge
SX-2500CG,” on p. 48.
Standard support for up to two USB 2.0 High-Speed interface ports ships standard
with all configurations. One USB port is inside the right-corner box and can be
used for scanning, printing, or direct printing from a USB memory stick. One USB
port is on the rear of the machine, and can only be used to attach a USB keyboard,
third-party card reader, direct printing, or for servicing the machine.

4. Power/Electrical Requirements
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 requires a NEMA 5-20 receptacle for the
main unit.

ColorPASS-GX400 1-120 V/15 A outlet NEMA 5-15 6’ (1.8 m)

The following illustration shows the power outlets and voltage requirements of
each optional accessory item.
IMPORTANT
• We recommend an additional standard 120 V/15 A outlet for service tools, such
as a laptop computer or vacuum that may be used when servicing or
configuring the machine.
• Use only dedicated and properly grounded outlets for the main unit and
ColorPASS or imagePASS. It is also strongly suggested to use dedicated and
properly grounded outlets for each optional accessory. Do not use extension
cords. The ground connection serves to provide the internal electronics with a
reference voltage. Faulty or poor ground sources will cause this reference
voltage to fall into a range that no longer serves as a reliable reference voltage.
The internal logic and programming of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270
will not perform reliably because there is an insufficient difference between the
internal operating signal voltages and the poor ground reference signal. A
qualified electrician can measure and provide the ground source that the
imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 or any computer controlled office equipment
requires.
• Before installation, confirm that all necessary receptacles are available.
NOTE
The Duplex Color Image Reader Unit-F1, Paper Deck Unit-C1, External 2/3
Hole Puncher-A1, Staple Finisher-L1, and Booklet Finisher-L1 do not require
any additional outlets.

5. Environmental Factors and Requirements
This section describes the necessary environmental factors and requirements in
which the machine should be operated to achieve the best image quality and print
results.
NOTE
It may be necessary to use a humidifier or dehumidifier to attain the proper
humidity levels for optimal machine performance.
5.1 Temperature and Humidity Conditions
The optimal humidity range is 30% to 70% RH (Relative Humidity) with a room
temperature of 68°F to 80.6°F (20°C to 27°C).
The machine contains intelligent technology that can sense the environmental
temperature, and optimize its performance if operated outside the temperature
range. However, productivity, paper feeding, and image quality may be affected if
the machine is operated outside of these guidelines.
The machine should not be installed in locations with significant shifts in

temperature or humidity. Areas containing water, or equipment that can
significantly alter room temperature or humidity, such as a heater, stove, or
portable air conditioner, should be avoided, unless proper environmental control is
available to achieve maximum productivity or quality capability.
The optimal humidity range for storing paper is 30% to 70% RH (Relative Humidity)
with a room temperature of 68°F to 80.6°F (20°C to 27°C). Storing paper in a
location that does not meet these specifications may affect paper feeding and
image quality. For example, if the humidity is too high, paper curling and paper
jams will increase. If the humidity is too low, paper may shrink or lose resistance,
and toner will not adhere to the paper as well.
5.2 Temperature Gradient
Using an air conditioner during the winter, or if a sudden temperature change

occurs, may have an adverse affect on image positioning. Sudden temperature
changes may cause the paper to bend or contract, cause the machine to
malfunction, and form condensation. To avoid these issues, control the
temperature gradient so that temperature fluctuations do not exceed 18°F per hour
or 10°C per hour.

5.3 Ventilation
Ensure that there is an air exchange rate of at least 1.5 times per hour, and at least
3,885 ft3 (110 m3) of space in the location where the machine will be installed.
This machine generates a slight amount of ozone during normal use. Although
sensitivity to ozone may vary, this amount is not harmful. Ozone may be more
noticeable during extended use or long production runs, especially in poorly
ventilated rooms. It is recommended that the room be appropriately ventilated,
sufficient to maintain a comfortable working environment, in areas of machine
operation.
5.4 Elevation Limitations
Install this machine at an elevation below 13,123’ (4,000 m) and at an air pressure
less than 607.8 hPa.
5.5 Lighting
We recommend installing the machine in a location with at least 500 lux

(29 1/2” (75 cm) above the floor) for normal operation and maintenance.
5.6 Sunlight
Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight. Direct sunlight has adverse affects
on toner consistency and image quality. If direct sunlight is unavoidable, use
curtains to shade the machine. Be sure that the curtains do not block the
machine’s ventilation slots or louvers, or interfere with the electrical cord or power
supply.
5.7 Ammonia
Avoid installing the machine where ammonia is emitted. In a sufficient amount,

ammonia will attack the surfaces of the machine’s paper feed and image quality
components, thereby shortening their useful life and increasing the need for
periodic and remedial maintenance.
A professional assessment of the air quality in the room in which the machine is to
be installed is recommended prior to its installation.

9. Consumable Items
Consumable items are all products and materials that are consumed with regular
use and cannot be reused. Such consumables are included but not limited to
paper, chemicals, and toner.
A number of factors go into the approximate life expectancy of a consumable item,

including paper size and the amount of coverage per page.
The Usage Conditions and Consumables tables below state the estimated life
expectancy yields based on LTR size paper. Using paper larger than LTR reduces
the supply yields and parts life accordingly.
9.1 Usage Conditions
Operate the machine within the following usage conditions to achieve optimal
machine performance.
Item Condition
Operating Temperature 68°F to 80.6°F (20°C to 27°C)
Operating Humidity 30% to 70%
*1
Optimal Performance Range 30,000 to 80,000
Image Ratio 5%
*1 Based on 20 lb LTR size paper, and under the above optimal environmental conditions.

9.2 Consumable Parts
Consumable parts are defined as those parts having a limited life that will be
reached during a customer’s specific machine operation, and then should be
replaced as needed. Examples of consumable parts include, but are not limited to
feed rollers, cleaning blades, fixing assembly components, etc.
An estimated consumable parts life is provided below to assist in the initial

parts/supplies planning. A consumable part’s life expectancy is directly related to
usage factors, such as paper size, paper quality, environment, usage application,
and machine maintenance. Therefore, consumable parts do not have a warranty,
and Canon U.S.A., Inc. cannot guarantee a minimum life.
NOTE
All consumable parts shown in the table below are for reference purposes only,
and are subject to change without notice.

10. Toner Bottle Yields

The black toner bottle holds approximately 3.7 lb (1,660 g) of toner, and yields
approximately 80,000 impressions at 5% coverage on LTR size paper.
The color toner bottles hold approximately 2.07 lb (940 g) of toner, and yield
approximately 52,000 impressions at 5% coverage on LTR size paper.

11. Waste Toner Yields
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 uses a replaceable waste toner container,
which collects the waste toner during the printing process.
The operator or service technician should replace the waste toner container when
approximately 50,000 sheets of LTR paper at 100% color ratio and 5% image ratio
have been printed. However, the capability for the operator to replace the waste
toner container must be enabled by the service technician. Otherwise, only the
service technician can perform this task. When the message is displayed that the
waste toner container is full, up to an additional 1,000 sheets of LTR paper at
100% color ratio and 5% image ratio can be printed before the waste toner
container must be replaced.
When the waste toner container becomes completely full, the imageRUNNER
ADVANCE C7270 stops. The service technician (or operator, if enabled) must
replace the full waste toner container with an empty waste toner container.
Disposal of the full waste toner container must be done in a manner that is
applicable to the laws in the geographical area where the machine is located. It is
recommended that the customer maintain a supply of waste toner containers for
replacement when necessary.

12. Optimum Monthly Product Performance
The table below describes the differences between the optimum PCV (Print Copy
Volume), average PCV, maximum PCV, and duty cycle. Please note that the
numbers in the table are for reference purposes only, and depend strongly on the
type of media selected and environmental conditions. For information on the
optimal environmental conditions for the machine, see “Environmental Factors and
Requirements,” on p. 26.

This is the print/copy volume range that the
equipment was intended to run on a regular
basis to maintain a high level of performance
and print/copy quality. Running the equipment
Optimum PCV 30,000 to 80,000
within this range ensures that no undue stress
is placed on components, and it allows time
for the proper servicing and maintenance of
the equipment.
This is the maximum number of prints/copies
the machine can produce within a one-month
period. However, sustained use of the
machine at this print/copy level will impact the
Maximum PCV long term performance and durability of the 80,000
machine. It is recommended to stay within the
optimum print/copy volume, and reduce a
possible increase in servicing and
maintenance issues.
On occasion, the machine can produce up to
250,000 prints/copies. However, sustained
use of the machine at this level, will
significantly impact the long term performance

and durability of the machine. The user should
expect an increase in the number of service
calls and down time during periods of
maximum production use.
IMPORTANT
If the user’s business constantly runs the machine at the duty cycle or is
consistently run above the maximum PCV, the user should consider purchasing
additional machines or higher volume machines.

13. Machine Productivity
This chapter describes the productivity of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270.
13.1 Print Speed
One of the key features of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 is its print speed
technology. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 prints a color, letter-sized
sheet of bond paper weighing 14 lb bond (52 g/m²) at 60 ipm, and prints a
black-and-white, letter-sized sheet of bond paper weighing 14 lb bond (52 g/m²) at
70 ipm.
There is an impact on print speed if the user is printing on paper of different sizes,
weights, media, and if the user is printing double sided jobs. For more information,
see “Mixed Paper Weight Job Productivity,” on p. 57.
The tables below describe the printing speeds one should expect when printing
one- or two-sided documents on the indicated paper size and type.

*8 Transparencies can only be used with a machine that is equipped with the Copy Tray-P1.

IMPORTANT
The copy/print speeds in the table above may not be achieved if the user
copies/prints in the conditions below:
− If papers of differing lengths are fed together at the same time.
− If a job is printed on papers of differing paper weights.
− If a simplex or duplex job is printed on mixed media.
− If a saddle stitched booklet is created using one sheet.
− If tab paper and other paper types are used at the same time.
13.2 Mixed Paper Weight Job Productivity
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 is capable of processing jobs that contain

paper with different paper weights. However, during the processing of jobs with
mixed paper weights, the machine adjusts its fixing temperature, resulting in a
printing delay.
13.3 Paper, Toner, and Waste Toner Replacement
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE operator can maintain productivity by removing,

replacing, and refilling the paper and toner while the machine is running.
The paper trays can also be opened and refilled during operation. The tray that is
being used by the machine during production, however, will be locked. Once the
job completes, or the machine switches to another tray, the empty tray unlocks,
allowing the operator to prepare for the next job, and add more paper. No
productivity is affected and jobs finish faster.
Similar to the paper, the toner bottles can be removed and replaced while a job is
printing. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 has a large toner hopper, making
it possible for the machine to run longer with no bottle. The operator is not required
to replace the toner bottle immediately after removing the old bottle. Therefore,
productivity and image quality are not affected, and jobs finish in the same amount
of time.

14. Media Usage/Compatibility
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 maintains reliable, predictable, and
high-quality output. Consistency of the output is dependent on knowing and
compensating for variables of a print job. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270
incorporates many control systems which compensate for environmental and print
process conditions. Another variable is the print media. Knowing the characteristics
of the media guarantees optimal print output.
14.1 Media Characteristics by Media Library Parameters
The System Administrator must be in the Management mode to edit the media
characteristics.

14.2 Paper Handling and Storage
• The permissible humidity range for paper storage is 30% to 70% (with a room
temperature of 68°F to 80.6°F (20°C to 27°C)). Storing paper in a location that
does not meet these specifications may affect paper feeding and image quality.
• Only use paper that has fully acclimatized to the environment in which the
machine is installed. Using paper that has been stored in a different
environment (with a different temperature and humidity), may cause paper jams
or result in poor print quality.
• We recommend using paper immediately after opening the package. Rewrap
any remaining paper in its original package, and store it on a flat surface.
• Before loading paper, make sure to fan the sheets thoroughly so that air runs
through the sheets, as shown in the diagrams below.

14.3 Paper Grain and Curl
Paper grain and curl can dramatically affect the reliability of machines utilizing an
electrostatic process like the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270. Paper used in an
offset press is usually cut for short edge feeding. This type of paper is not as
reliable as paper made for machines utilizing an electrostatic process, which is cut
for long edge feeding. Also, the composition of electrostatic paper is different from
offset paper, and produces better quality results in a digital machine. When
selecting paper for the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 choose paper intended
for use in electrostatic machines, such as laser printers and copiers.
If paper jams or poor print quality occur when paper is fed from the optional paper
deck, paper curl is often the cause. The paper stiffness, direction of curl, and
amount of curl have a strong influence on how well the paper is transported
through the machine. If paper is curled, straighten out the paper by gently curling it
in the opposite direction to which it is curled.
Paper stiffness depends on the direction of the paper grain. Paper tends to curl in
the direction parallel to the grain.
IMPORTANT
When using LTR or smaller paper sizes we recommend using paper with a grain
parallel to the long edge (A). For paper sizes larger than 11” x 17”, we
recommend using paper with a grain parallel to the short edge (B). When using
coated paper that weighs less than 105 g/m2, we recommend using paper with a
grain perpendicular to the feeding direction of the paper.

14.4 Note for Customers Who Cut Their Own Paper
Customers who cut their own paper may experience:
• An increase of paper dust in the machine

• Shortening the life of the machine’s fixing rollers due to excessive wear from the
rough side of the cut paper
• Paper jams due to paper dust getting into areas of the machine where it is not
meant to be
• Improper paper feeding
• Paper registration inaccuracies
Follow the precautions below to minimize the above issues:
• Have a process in place to regularly make sure that the cutting blades are
sharpened, and that cuts are made as clean as possible.
• Place the paper with the factory mill cut sides facing to the right (leading edge),
and to the front of the machine.
• Pay special attention to the paper grain orientation when cutting it. For more
information on paper grain, see “Paper Grain and Curl,” on p. 59.
• The best results for consistency and front to back registration are obtained by
using factory mill cut, digital compatible paper.
14.5 Media Feed Locations
As with all Canon copiers, certain feed locations within the device are capable of
feeding specific media sizes and weights.
When considering media, make sure the media is within the proper size and weight
parameters of the feed location. Once the desired media is selected the
appropriate feed location must be selected.

The default paper types registered in the machine are shown in the table below.
The Paper Deck Unit-C1, POD Deck Lite-A1, Multi-Drawer Paper Deck-A1,

15. Image Quality Capabilities
The table below describes the type of image quality the customer can expect when
using the machine.
IMPORTANT
Following installation and set up, it is strongly recommended that owners of the
imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270 print and store samples of the image quality
the product is capable of producing. These samples should serve as a
benchmark against which subsequent image quality can be referenced. Samples
should be made using as many applications, media, and paper types the owner
intends to use on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270.

15.1 Customer-Defined Image Quality Adjustments and Recommendations
Customer-defined image quality adjustments enable the customer to enhance the

productivity of the machine. There are several user modes, such as the Adjust
Image Quality and Paper Type Management Settings modes, which provide
adjustment functions, to help maintain the desired image quality for each job.
These settings also aim at reproducing optimal images under variable factors (i.e.,
changes in the environment, deterioration due to aging, etc.).
To achieve the best image quality the following factors are recommended:
• Tighter control of the temperature and humidity will result in tighter image quality
consistency in the device.
• The device must be properly maintained, which includes performing preventative
maintenance as scheduled.
• To maintain proper color calibration on the device, the customer should perform
a Shading Correction and a Full Auto Gradation Adjustment once a day and
whenever a change in print quality is noticed. Follow these guidelines to calibrate
the machine properly:
When calibrating the machine, make sure to perform a shading correction first,
then an Auto Gradation Adjustment on the engine, and then a calibration with
the RIP.
If an EFI controller is being used, use a high-quality, 28 lb bond (105 g/m2),
98% brightness, 11” x 17” or LTR sized paper when performing an Auto
Gradation Adjustment.
If the Canon controller or off the glass copying is being used, the user must
calibrate the machine to the paper being used. For example, Heavy 1/2 or
Heavy 3/4 paper. Once a job is complete, it is recommended to recalibrate the
machine using a high-quality, 28 lb bond (105 g/m2), 98% brightness,
11” x 17” or LTR sized paper.

15.1.1 Adjust Image Quality Modes
The Adjust Image Quality mode enables the user to make fine adjustments to the
printed image. For more information on specifying the Adjust Image Quality
modes, see “Adjustment/Maintenance,” in the Settings/Registration e-Manual
included with the machine.
The following items can be adjusted through the Adjust Image Quality menu:
• Auto Adjust Gradation • Correct Density

• Correct Shading • Auto Correct Color Mismatch
• Fine Adjust Zoom • Color Balance
IMPORTANT
• It is recommended that the user select [Full Adjust] when performing an
automatic gradation adjustment. Select [Quick Adjust] to perform a quick, but
less complete adjustment between regular full adjustment recalibrations.
• If the Correct Shading mode is specified, only 12 5/8” x 17 11/16”, 12” x 18”,
11” x 17”, or LTR plain paper can be used for the test pages. Make sure that a
sufficient supply of the aforementioned paper sizes is loaded in a paper source
before starting the Correct Shading procedure.
15.1.2 Paper Type Management Settings
The Paper Type Management Settings mode enables the System Administrator
to improve the image quality output result by precisely registering the type of
custom or standard paper settings that are frequently used in the machine.
The following items can be adjusted through the Paper Type Management
Settings menu:
• Basis Weight • Finish

• Type • Color
• Adjust Creep Correction • Curl Correction Level
• Adj. Ppr. Separation Fan Level • Adjust Image Position
• Adj. Secondary Transfer Volt • Tail End White Patch Correct.
IMPORTANT
• The Paper Type Management Settings mode is only available from the
Management mode.
• For more information on specifying the Paper Type Management Settings
modes, see “Registering/Editing Custom Paper Types,” in the
Settings/Registration e-Manual included with the machine.
