Overview

About the imageFORCE C1743P

The imageFORCE C1743P is the print-only model in Canon's C1700 series — a 45-page-per-minute color A4 printer for workgroups that need fast, secure color output but already have scanning covered elsewhere. Introduced in October 2026, it shares its print engine, paper handling, and security platform with the C1743F multifunction model in a shorter, lighter chassis. The C1752P is the same machine unlocked to 55 ppm by a speed license.

Print from Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Chrome OS devices with AirPrint, Mopria, Universal Print, or the Canon PRINT app — no driver required — and from any PCL or PostScript workflow. A 2-second quick startup and 6-second wake from sleep keep the first page moving. Paper capacity starts at 650 sheets (a 550-sheet cassette plus a 100-sheet multipurpose tray) and grows to 2,300 sheets with optional cassettes, handling stock to 80 lb cover and sizes up to 8-1/2 × 14.

Security matches the larger imageFORCE models: Verify System at Startup, Automatic System Recovery, Trellix™ Embedded Control, FIPS 140-3 TLS 1.3 and IPsec, and Secure Print are all standard. Optional uniFLOW Online adds secure print release and cost tracking, and imageWARE Enterprise Management Console handles fleet monitoring and firmware updates.

Key features

What it does well

  • 45 ppm with a fast first page

    Prints at up to 45 pages per minute in color or black-and-white, with a first print in about 8 seconds, a 2-second quick startup, and recovery from sleep in 6 seconds or less. The same engine can be unlocked to 55 ppm with the C1752P speed license.

  • Up to 2,300 sheets, Legal size

    A 550-sheet cassette and 100-sheet multipurpose tray standard; add Cassette Module-AL1 units or the Cassette Feeding Unit-BA1 to reach 2,300 sheets. Runs stock from 16 lb bond to 80 lb cover, plus envelopes, labels, and postcards up to 8-1/2 × 14.

  • Print from any device

    AirPrint, Mopria, IPP Everywhere, Canon PRINT, and Universal Print print without a driver install; UFR II, PCL 6, and PostScript 3 are standard. Gigabit Ethernet and wireless LAN are both built in.

  • Security designed into the device

    Verify System at Startup and Automatic System Recovery protect the firmware, Trellix™ Embedded Control whitelists what can run, and TLS 1.3 and IPsec are FIPS 140-3 validated. Secure Print and Encrypted Secure Print keep jobs at the device until the owner releases them, and optional uniFLOW Online adds badge or PIN release.

  • Compact and quiet on the desk

    At 16-1/2 inches tall and about 71 pounds, the C1743P fits on a desk or credenza; the optional Cabinet Type-Z turns it into a floor-standing unit with room for two extra cassettes.

  • Low-impact by design

    ENERGY STAR® certified and rated EPEAT Bronze. All-in-one Toner T1009 cartridges yield up to 18,700 black and 12,000 color impressions, and recyclable packaging replaces foam.

Included with every system

What comes with it when you buy from ABC

The imageFORCE C1743P is the same everywhere. What's different is the 44 years of local service behind it.

  • Delivery, setup, and network install

    We deliver, unbox, place, and connect the device to your network and every workstation that needs it. You print the first page before we leave.

  • On-site training for your team

    A Canon-certified technician walks your staff through the panel, scanning workflows, and the everyday things that generate service calls when nobody explains them.

  • Genuine Canon toner, auto-shipped

    Supplies ship before you run out, based on your device's own meter readings. Genuine Canon consumables only, so your warranty and image quality stay intact.

  • Same-day service standard

    Local technicians dispatched from our office in Old Hickory, not a national ticket queue. Average response is under four hours.

  • Plain-language agreements

    Lease, rent, or buy. Separate color and mono cost-per-page, no hidden escalators, and a person who answers questions about the contract by name.

  • One dedicated account manager

    The same person from proposal through the life of the system. They know your account, your volumes, and when it's time to talk about what's next.
