imageFORCE C515050 ppm color for busier professional settings and fast-paced shared workspaces.
Best for: Busier professional offices and co-working spaces with steady color volume
Overview
The imageFORCE C5150 is the 50-page-per-minute model in Canon's C5100 series — a color A3 multifunction system for busier professional settings such as fast-paced co-working spaces, where several teams share one device and turnaround matters. It runs 50 ppm on letter, 30 ppm on letter-rotated, 29 ppm on legal, and 27 ppm on 11 × 17, with a first color copy in as little as 4.9 seconds, and shares every hardware, scanning, and security capability of the faster C5160 and C5170.
Canon's D² Exposure technology uses OLED solid-state imaging to reach 4800 × 2400 dpi, with consistent color registration and crisp text on colored backgrounds. The single-pass duplex scanner captures both sides of a page at up to 270 images per minute and sends searchable PDFs or editable Word and PowerPoint files to email, folders, USB, or the cloud. Print from Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Chrome OS devices with AirPrint, Mopria, Universal Print, or the Canon PRINT app — no driver required. Paper capacity starts at 1,200 sheets and grows to 6,350 with optional cassettes and decks; the lower cassette and multipurpose tray handle stock up to 12 × 18, and a long-sheet tray option runs banners to 51.25 inches. For print-shop-level color control, the optional imagePASS-T1 Fiery controller can run alongside the native Canon controller.
Every imageFORCE model shares the same 10.1-inch touchscreen interface and Canon's Unified Firmware Platform, so the device keeps gaining features through regular updates and anyone trained on one imageFORCE can run another. Print, copy, scan, send, and store are standard; fax (up to four lines) is optional.
Key features
OLED solid-state exposure delivers 4800 × 2400 dpi resolution, minimizes color shift, and keeps text sharp against colored backgrounds — brochure and proposal quality on plain paper.
Both sides of a page in one pass at up to 270 ipm from the 200-sheet feeder. Scans go to email, network folders, USB, mobile devices, or the cloud as searchable PDF, PDF/A, or editable Word and PowerPoint files.
AirPrint, Mopria, IPP Everywhere, Canon PRINT, Universal Print, and the optional Cloud Connector — phones, tablets, and laptops print without a driver install. PCL, PostScript 3, and UFR II are standard.
Secure Print and Forced Hold keep jobs at the device until the owner signs in by PIN, password, picture, card, or mobile. Verify System at Startup checks firmware for tampering, storage is encrypted to FIPS 140-3 on a TPM 2.0 platform, Trellix™ Embedded Control whitelists what can run, and SIEM integration feeds your monitoring.
Runs stock from 14 lb bond to 110 lb cover, envelopes, and sheets up to 12 × 18 — or 51.25-inch banners with the long-sheet option. Optional inner, staple, and booklet finishers add stapling to 65 sheets, hole punching, saddle-stitched booklets, and C-, V-, and Z-folds.
Add Canon's imagePASS-T1 print server for faster processing, sharper color accuracy, and Fiery Command WorkStation tools. The C5100 series supports dual controllers, so the native Canon controller stays primary and imagePASS handles the demanding color work.
Efficient fusing and low-melting-point toner keep energy use down. ENERGY STAR® certified and rated EPEAT Gold and EPEAT Climate+, and shipped in recyclable cardboard packaging instead of foam.
