With this technology, end users reduce their Total Cost of Ownership of our Canon CAPT Laser Printers, which means they need not spend more on buying memory for upgrading. It also increases productivity and overall ease-of-use of the printers. Together with features like Custom Print Profiles, On-Screen Previewing and Easy Networking, Canon's CAPT printers are both powerful and affordable. Most of Canon's range of personal laser printers are bundled with this technology: LBP-800, LBP-810 & the latest LBP-1210. A recent review on LBP-810 (shown on the right), has proven that, Canon's CAPT Printer, is able to achieve fast printing with less memory without sacrificing Quality. How Canon does it? A technology by Canon called ScoA, Smart Compression Architecture can only be found in printers with CAPT Technology. With SCoA Technology, fast printing is achieved with less memory on-board the printer. From the diagram below, Fig.1, the print job is being compressed in the computer by the SCoA driver, using the computer's memory. Once completed, the compressed data is transmitted to the CAPT printer for printing. The waiting-time is minimized and more productive compared to the flow of a normal laser printer, shown in Fig. 2, whereby the data transmitted is not compressed initially. Furthermore, with SCoA's efficient data compressing codes, it can manage the data compression with minimal memory. That is to say, stable output is realised regardless of the amount of data, even huge data can be printed smoothly. <<back
