Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 6860i is actually for

Most equipment pages just tell you what a device 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 offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a department of 30-80 people that needs A3 (11x17) and 12x18 monochrome at moderate-to-heavy volume.
  • You print 8,000-20,000 pages a month and want a current-generation iR-ADV DX (256 GB SSD, 5 GB RAM, Trellix runtime intrusion detection).
  • You scan stacks of mixed-size originals continuously — the 200-sheet single-pass DPF runs 270 ipm in duplex.
  • You want native cloud connectors (Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, OneDrive) and Universal Print by Microsoft without third-party middleware.
  • You need finishing — staple, hole-punch, saddle-stitch, Z-fold are all available with the Staple Finisher-AB2 or Booklet Finisher-A1 with Tri-Fold.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 5,000-8,000 pages a month — the 60 ppm engine handles it, you'll just go through GPR-63 toner faster.
  • You're replacing a Canon iR-ADV 6500 series — the 10.1-inch touchscreen and uniFLOW workflow translate directly, but expect 2-3 weeks of muscle-memory complaints from operators.
  • You don't need 70 ppm — the 6860i sits between the 6855i and 6870i; pick by actual monthly volume.
  • You want the optional 2,700-sheet Paper Deck Unit-F1 for long unattended runs — it bolts on, but adds significant footprint.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 5,000 pages a month — you're paying for an A3 enterprise MFP and using maybe 15% of it. Get the iR-ADV DX 617iF or 6855i instead.
  • You need color — this is mono only. Look at the iR-ADV DX C5800 series for color A3.
  • You don't have floor space — this is a 24.4 x 28.5 x 36.9-inch unit weighing 200 lb basic configuration. Fully configured with finishing it spans 73.5 inches wide.
  • You need 13x19 — this engine maxes out at 12x18; for SRA3 / 13x19 step up to the 8700 series.
  • You don't have an authorized Canon dealer — GPR-63 toner and managed service are easier through contract channels.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 6860i is the mid-range model in the iR-ADV DX 6800 series, an A3 monochrome floor MFP for departments of 30-80 people running 8,000-20,000 pages a month in tabloid black-and-white. It prints and copies at 60 ppm letter, 36 ppm letter-R, 34 ppm legal, 32 ppm at 11x17, with first copy out in 2.9 seconds. Standard paper capacity is 1,200 sheets across dual 550-sheet cassettes and a 100-sheet stack bypass — expandable to 6,350 sheets with optional cassette feeding units, the 2,450-sheet HCFU-C1, and the 2,700-sheet Paper Deck Unit-F1. The 200-sheet single-pass DPF runs 270 ipm in duplex. The 10.1-inch flat-panel touchscreen runs uniFLOW Online, hot folders, and scan-to-everything (SMB, FTP, WebDAV, email, IFAX, Office Open XML). Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet plus Wi-Fi standard, with native Cloud Connector for major cloud services and Universal Print by Microsoft. Security stack: Trellix Embedded Control, FIPS 140-3 SSD encryption, TPM. The thing buyers regret: paying for the 60 ppm step up from the 6855i when their monthly volume doesn't justify it — the difference is mostly speed, not capability. The other thing to know: external finishing options are extensive but each adds footprint and an invoice line. Toner is GPR-63 Black.
