Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i 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 print center, mailroom, or central reproduction department printing 30,000-100,000+ pages a month in monochrome.
  • You need real production speed — 105 ppm letter, 53 ppm at 11x17, 2.7-second first copy out.
  • You produce booklets, stapled packets, hole-punched manuals, Z-folded letters, or accordion-folded brochures regularly — the optional Booklet Finisher-W1 PRO + Document Insertion Unit + Multi Function Professional Puncher handle all of it.
  • You scan high volumes of mixed-size originals continuously — the 200-sheet single-pass DPF runs 270 ipm in duplex.
  • You already standardize on Canon imageRUNNER and need a flagship A3 mono unit that drops into uniFLOW for fleet management and badge release.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 15,000-30,000 pages a month — the engine handles it easily, you'll just amortize the lease over more pages.
  • You don't need 105 ppm — the 8705i sits above the 8786i (86 ppm) and 8795i (95 ppm); pick by actual monthly volume.
  • You're replacing a Konica bizhub PRO 951 or Xerox D95 — the 10.1-inch touchscreen and uniFLOW workflow are familiar territory.
  • You want the optional 1 TB hard drive for heavy mail-box use — it bolts on and gives you ~480 GB of Advanced Box space vs the standard 16 GB.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 15,000 pages a month — you're paying for a 105 ppm production engine and using a fraction of it. Get the iR-ADV DX 6800 series instead.
  • You need color — this is mono only. Look at the imagePRESS series for production color.
  • You don't have floor space — this is a 26.4 x 30.4 x 46.6-inch unit weighing 487 lb basic. Fully configured with finishing it spans 199.5 inches wide (16+ feet).
  • You need the cheapest cost per page on small jobs — at this volume tier the per-page math only works if you're running 30,000+ pages a month.
  • You don't have an authorized Canon dealer — GPR-37 toner and managed service are easier through contract channels.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i is the top-speed model in the iR-ADV DX 8700 production series — a floor-standing A3 monochrome MFP for print centers, mailrooms, and central reproduction departments running 30,000+ pages a month. It prints and copies at 105 ppm letter, 81 ppm letter-R, 63 ppm legal, 53 ppm at 11x17, with first copy out in 2.7 seconds. Standard paper capacity is 4,360 sheets across dual 1,560-sheet drawers, dual 570-sheet cassettes, and a 100-sheet bypass — expandable to 8,020 sheets with optional decks. The 200-sheet single-pass DPF runs 270 ipm in duplex. Where the 8705i pulls away from the 6800 series is finishing: the optional Booklet Finisher-W1 PRO with Booklet Trimmer, Document Insertion Unit-N1, Multi Function Professional Puncher-B1, and Paper Folding Unit-J1 handle saddle-stitched booklets, Z-fold, half-fold, C-fold, accordion-Z, and double parallel-fold. The 10.1-inch touchscreen runs uniFLOW Online and the standard imageRUNNER ADVANCE workflow. Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet plus Wi-Fi standard. Security stack includes McAfee Embedded Control and FIPS 140-2 HDD encryption. The thing buyers regret: scaling up too far. If your monthly volume is under 15,000 pages, this is overbuilt — get the 6800 series. The other thing to know: fully configured this is a 199-inch-wide (16-foot) install — measure your room first. Toner is GPR-37 Black (70,000-page yield).

FAQ

Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner typically yields approximately 70,000 pages at 6% coverage. The replacement toner model is the Canon GPR-37 Black Toner Cartridge (3764B003AA), which also has a yield of 70,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i is a high-speed production printer designed for print centers and large departments, with a speed of 105 ppm and a monthly volume capacity of 30,000+ pages. It features advanced finishing options like booklet making and Z-folding, and a standard paper capacity of 4,360 sheets expandable to 8,020. In contrast, the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 4825i is a workgroup printer suited for small offices, with a speed of 25 ppm and a monthly volume of 3,000 to 15,000 pages. It has a standard paper capacity of 1,200 sheets expandable to 3,650 and lacks the advanced finishing options of the 8705i. For small offices, the 4825i offers a more compact and cost-effective solution.
The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i is not ideal for most small businesses due to its high monthly volume requirement of 30,000+ pages and its large footprint. It is designed for print centers and large departments that need high-speed production and advanced finishing options. Small businesses with lower print volumes (under 15,000 pages per month) should consider a more compact and cost-effective option.
No, the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 8705i is a monochrome printer and can only print in black and white. If you need color printing, consider alternatives like the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C357iF or the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C5800 series, which offer color capabilities.
