CANON BRINGS INNOVATION TO TECHNICAL DOCUMENTS

Canon’s large-format printing systems deliver the perfect
blend of print quality, ease-of-use, speed, and cost-effective
operation for engineering, architecture, mapping, and other
technical applications.

Whatever the discipline, all these
technical users share common 
needs such as sharp lines, crisp 
text, bold expressive color, fast
output, low operating cost, and 
reliability. Compatible with a full 
line of media types—including CAD
paper, matte-coated paper, and 

film—the imagePROGRAF printers deliver the performance 
that users worldwide expect from Canon. From smooth lines
and deep blacks on any media type to powerful document
processing technology that optimizes output speed and quality
based on image content, Canon has engineered these printers
to seamlessly manage the complexities of color and content
integrated with technical line drawings.

LINES, LETTERS, AND GRAPHICS NEVER LOOKED SO GOOD

Canon’s breakthrough five-color dye/pigment ink technology
uses four highly colorfast dye inks (CMYK) and a pigment-based
Matte Black (MBK) ink. The dye black is used with high-color
prints on glossy paper and proofing paper. Two matte black
ink reservoirs are used for high-speed printing of line drawings
and text-oriented office documents. Canon’s reactive ink tech-
nology is created by combining matte black ink with cyan ink.
This prevents ink from spreading at the border between color
and black output. This ensures clear text, smooth curves, and
sharp, fine lines on any media, whether the black printing is set
against white or color backgrounds. The unique ink formulation
also provides improved resistance against scratches and marks
when compared to conventional dye inks. 

To ensure optimum productivity, a
six-tank ink delivery configuration is
employed. This allows both black
inks (pigment and dye-based) to be
installed at all times so there’s no
need to change ink formulations
based on media type. Two dedicated
matte black ink lines are used to
enable faster printing of many
technical documents. 

Quality Output, Quickly and Productively
