Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8786i
Office Printing Solutions
The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8786i is Canon's fastest black-and-white A3 MFP at 86 ppm, bridging the gap between office MFP and production printer for light production and CRD environments.
- Print Speed (Mono): 86 ppm (A4/Letter)
- Print Resolution: Up to 1200 × 1200 dpi
- Copy Speed: 86 cpm
- Scan Speed (ADF): Up to 100 ipm (300 dpi, duplex)
The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8786i occupies a unique and powerful position in Canon's product portfolio: it is the fastest monochrome A3 MFP in the imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX series, producing an extraordinary 86 pages per minute. Designed explicitly for light production and central reprographic department (CRD) environments, the 8786i delivers printing throughput that begins to approach the output levels of entry-level production presses — but within the intelligent, connected framework of an office multifunction device.
The device runs on Canon's DX platform, providing My ADVANCE touchscreen intelligence, cloud integration, and enterprise-grade security alongside its exceptional output speed. Users benefit from personalised workflows, one-touch shortcuts for complex multi-step tasks, and direct cloud service access — making the device highly efficient even when used by large teams across multiple shifts.
Canon's single-pass duplex DADF delivers scan speeds of up to 100 ipm in duplex mode, enabling rapid digitisation of large document batches. The scanned content can be routed instantly to email, shared network folders, cloud services such as Google Drive or SharePoint, or directly into document management workflows — enabling the 8786i to serve as both a high-speed output and digital conversion hub.
The 8786i's finishing compatibility is designed for light production use: it supports high-capacity booklet finishers, saddle-stitch staplers, multi-position stapling, and inserter units — enabling the in-house production of professionally bound reports, booklets, and corporate publications that previously required outsourcing to commercial print shops.
Use Cases & Applications
Large In-House Reprographic Departments & Print Rooms
Organisations with very high daily mono print volumes — producing internal publications, training manuals, bound reports, and large correspondence sets — require the 8786i's near-production speed to handle workloads that would overwhelm a standard office MFP. The 8786i's 86 ppm output and production-grade finishing support enable large reprographic departments to internalise work previously sent to external print shops.
National Newspapers & Media Companies
Media companies in Bangladesh that produce daily briefing documents, editorial packages, distribution lists, and archival prints benefit from the 8786i's ultra-high-speed mono output. Its high-capacity finishing accessories and large paper configurations support the continuous, unattended document production runs common in media operations.
Military, Police & National Security Agencies
Security-sensitive government agencies requiring high-volume, secure document production — for operational orders, briefing documents, training manuals, and confidential communications — benefit from the 8786i's combination of 86 ppm output speed and Canon's McAfee-based security architecture. The device's comprehensive user authentication and audit logging meet the demands of sensitive government environments.
Healthcare Networks (Central Document Services)
Large hospital networks and healthcare organisations producing high volumes of standardised forms, patient information packs, and administrative documentation at a central location require the 8786i's production-level throughput. Its reliability and finishing capability ensure that form sets and patient communications are produced correctly and efficiently.
