    20.

    Bur seriously, folks, the only difference other than age is that the 3220 has MEAP, which is Canon's version of Java that additional (optional) applications can run on.

      MEAP

      I got this off the canon website:

      ======

      What can a MEAP application do?
      MEAP applications can do very many things, such as:


      ======

      Does this mean that the CLC3200 can't perform key features such as mailbox functions and scan to email?

        Mailbox functions work with both.

        Scan to Email / folder requires the addition of Universal Send with either.

            CLC vs iRC

            This is mabye more info than nedded and the question is not regarding CLC vs Irc.

            1. Major Differences New options
            New options for the iRC3220 are as follows: - USB Application Interface Board-C I
            - Super G3 FAX Board-M2
            - USB Iuterface Board-A3
            - Canon imagePASS-CI V2.0 (pS-NX3000)
            - Resolution Switching Board-A2
            - PDF Creation Function Expansion Kit Al
            Difference Between the iRC3220 Series and the iRC3200 Series
            The iRC3220 series was produced by remodeling the iRC3200 to support MEAP. Therefore, MEAP applications can be installed in the iRC3220 series.

            And bigger memory in the 3220 model


            The only but big differnce is that a CLC runs with a Rip C1 or C2 from efi.
            Why rip?
            The rip ( Raster Image Processor) is a separate computer that renders the pictures mutch faster and with more accuracy.
            You can run profiles (ICC) for both paper and simulate differnt color models eg a Heidelberg press or anything witch has a profile.
            Its possible to steer the print through different workflows.

            The posibility of EFI hotfolders where you can make differnt setups for each folder increase, decrease, etc.

            The rip runs Ps Adobe Postscript.
            The gamut is mutch wider in ps and the color decription is more accurate.

            The speed is increased when pdf is printed.

            You can spool jobs on the rip and save for later occatons.
            And via the Command Workstation can you sterr the job in diffent ways.
            Make calibrations profiles and how mutch you want to learn.

            One big benefit is that when the job has reached the rip and you get an error code or need to reboot the mc or rip the job stays in que and doesnt dissapear.

            The hardwere in the copier is the same.

              The 3220 is a better and enhanced version of the IRC 3200.

              The print and the scan quality is better compared to the 3200.

              Also, it has many additional features like MEAP and send etc.


              Thanks.

                  Yes CLC runs with a rip but not a C1 or C2.
                  These imagepasses run on IRC they are not the same as the rips for CLC's
                  CLC's series are, 1100,1120,1150,1180,1000,2400,5000,5100..
                  These do not use imagepasses like C1,C2,H1,J1,G1

                  IRC series are 3200,3220,4080,5180,5185,2550,3380. these are IRC's.

                    In Europe the backpack rip is called C1.

                        I see...

                        Here is a link of a CLC1180.
                        Canon UK - CLC1180

                        Here is another link of a CLC5151
                        Canon CLC5151 Digital Colour Printing Press - Canon UK

                        However these CLC5151 in the states are IRC's. But these are not the same as CLC's though. The print quality and engine is not the same. But I can see how the confusion starts.
