Canon RA-02 IC Card Reader Holder 4976C002 for imagePROGRAF TM Series
Product Overview
The Canon RA-02 IC Card Reader Holder enables card-based user identification and supports print management on compatible Canon imagePROGRAF TM series printers.
The Canon RA-02 is an optional accessory that accommodates an IC card reader on compatible Canon imagePROGRAF large-format printers. When used with compatible print management software, it can help organisations identify individual users and account for their printing activity.
For businesses, education providers, public-sector organisations and larger workgroups, monitoring print usage can provide valuable insight into how large-format printing resources are used. Individual user or departmental accounting can help organisations allocate printing costs, monitor consumption and make more informed decisions about print budgets.
Key Benefits
Support individual user accounting
Card-based identification can help associate printing activity with individual users or departments. This makes it easier to understand who is printing and how print resources are being used.
Integrate with Canon uniFLOW
The RA-02 can form part of a compatible card-based print management solution using Canon’s uniFLOW platform. Depending on the software, licensing and system configuration, this can support user identification, print accounting, cost allocation and reporting.
Improve visibility of print costs
Accounting information can help businesses monitor print volumes, understand departmental usage and allocate costs to the appropriate users, teams or projects.
Designed for compatible Canon imagePROGRAF printers
The RA-02 provides a dedicated mounting solution for a compatible IC card reader, allowing card-based identification to be incorporated into an appropriate printer configuration.

Important Compatibility Information

Access to user accounting, reporting, authentication, and other management features depends on the selected card reader, uniFLOW solution, software licensing, and system configuration.
