Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Canon imagePRESS C850 is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You're a commercial printer or in-plant running 50,000-200,000 click-charged color pages a month on the C850.
  • You print on stocks up to 110 lb. Cover (300 gsm) with validated duplex up to 130 lb. Cover, on the R-VCSEL 2400 dpi platform.
  • You produce 13x19 short-run work — comps, proofs, packaging mockups, brochures — at 85 ppm Letter, 43 ipm 11x17, 38 ipm 13x19.
  • You want choice of three controllers: external Fiery H300, embedded Fiery G100, or PRISMAsync Color Print Server.
  • You need 1,650 sheets standard scaling to 7,650 across six sources.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 30,000-50,000 pages a month — handles it but you're amortizing an 85-ppm engine over a longer lease.
  • You need scan/copy — add the optional Duplex Color Image Reader-K1; the engine is a print device first.
  • You want long-sheet banner work up to 30 inches — requires the Stack Bypass-C2 and Long Sheet Tray.
  • You're stepping up from an imageRUNNER ADVANCE — image quality and reliability noticeably improve, expect 2-3 weeks operator adjustment.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 20,000 pages a month — get an imagePRESS Lite C170 or imageRUNNER ADVANCE instead and stop paying for production capacity.
  • You need Letter/A4 only — you're paying for a 13x19 paper path you won't use.
  • You need a small footprint — chassis is 56.1 x 60.2 x 36.8 inches base and grows fast with feeders/finishers.
  • You need network scan to email/SharePoint out of the box — scan is an option, destinations limited.
  • You don't have a Canon Solutions America service contract — these are click-billed devices typically with on-site PSO support.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Canon imagePRESS C850 is the flagship of the C850/C750 family — 85 ppm Letter (43 ipm 11x17, 40 ipm 12x18, 38 ipm 13x19), 2400 x 2400 dpi R-VCSEL imaging, and a 1,650-sheet standard / 7,650-sheet maximum paper capacity across up to six sources. Paper-weight envelope is 14 lb. Bond to 110 lb. Cover (52-300 gsm) standard with validated duplex up to 130 lb. Cover. The engine holds rated speed on uncoated stocks up to 220 gsm and automatically duplexes on stocks up to 300 gsm. Choice of three controllers: external imagePRESS Server H300 (Fiery), embedded imagePRESS Server G100 (Fiery), or PRISMAsync Color Print Server. PRISMAsync is the first DFE-embedded G7-certified system in this class — useful if your prepress flow already runs G7 calibration. Inline finishing includes Staple Finisher-W1 / Booklet Finisher-W1 (25-sheet uncoated booklets, 10-sheet coated), Multi Function Professional Puncher-A1 with seven die patterns plus crease, Perfect Binder-E1 for short-run book work, High-Capacity Stacker-H1 (6,000 sheets). The thing buyers regret: under-spec'ing the controller. PRISMAsync costs more up front but pays back fast in shops running multiple PRISMAsync-driven engines.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.
