New imagePROGRAF iPF6000S 24-Inch Large Format Printer Delivers
Perfect Combination of Speed, Quality and Versatility to Graphic Art
Professionals and Print-For-Pay Establishments
Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leading provider of office imaging systems, inkjet
technology and digital photography equipment, today announced the
release of the imagePROGRAF iPF6000S, a 24-inch wide large format
printer using eight colors of LUCIA pigment ink, specifically targeted
for graphic art professionals and print-for-pay (PFP) establishments.
The iPF6000S is a new addition to Canon’s
award-winning, speedy, eight-color large format printer line, the
S-Series. The new iPF6000S can print up to 24-inches wide, both on roll
and cut sheet while maintaining a speed that is more than 30 percent
faster than its 12-color sibling, the iPF6100*. The iPF6000S can finish
an A1 (23.6 inches x 33.1 inches)-sized print on glossy photographic
paper at 2400 x 1200 dots-per-inch (dpi) in the high-quality print mode
within 4 minutes**. Using LUCIA pigment ink and microscopic four
picoliter droplets, the iPF6000S produces high-quality, vivid
photographic images at notably high speeds.
“In an attempt to meet all the demands of
print professionals, Canon has made it a top priority to maintain the
highest levels of quality at increased production speeds,”
said Jim Rosetta, vice president and general manager, Imaging Systems
Group, Canon U.S.A. “The imagePROGRAF
S-Series, including the new iPF6000S, further extends our ability to
offer clients and consumers an effective, top-tier solution to meet all
their printing needs.”
The new iPF6000S LUCIA pigment ink includes Cyan, Photo Cyan, Magenta,
Photo Magenta, Yellow, Black, Matte Black and Gray ink. The printer
employs two high-density print heads, totaling 30,720 nozzles, with
5,120 nozzles per color to produce frame-worthy quality prints with
pin-point color accuracy at high speeds. Boasting a built-in color
calibration feature, the new imagePROGRAF iPF6000S enables precise color
reproduction and consistency.
To assist in streamlining production workflows, the imagePROGRAF
iPF6000S is equipped with an internal 80GB hard drive, allowing the
reprinting of jobs directly from the hard drive, and password protected
inboxes that can be used to store, archive, and later re-print existing
jobs.
