|
Canon imagePROGRAF announces yet another breakthrough in
large format printing solutions. With the imagePROGRAF iPF5100 Large Format
Printer, brilliant color, sophisticated print-head technology, and high
speed output are all brought together into a high-performance large format
printing-system. With features designed to help all levels of users achieve
extraordinary results, the iPF5100 printer is the ideal solution for any
color professional looking for striking, full-bleed color output with strength
in paper handling and exceptional speed in output.
The iPF5100 printer is engineered to produce colors, fine details, and subtle expressions required for some of the most challenging color environments such as photography, proofing and professional graphic applications. The new iPF5100 printer is equipped with the ability to recalibrate itself to the original factory settings and apply any necessary adjustments across the printer's media types. The result, a more predictable printing platform where results can be consistently achieved. The 12-color pigment ink system with LUCIA inks offers excellent color fastness and stability with a remarkably wide color gamut. The new ink formulation for Black, Matte Black, Gray and Photo Gray reduces bronzing, while providing stronger ink adhesion to the print media, resulting in better scratch resistance without any additional protection. The Canon L-COA processor, which is dedicated to the imagePROGRAF, is designed to optimize the best quality output at the highest possible speeds. Vivid breathtaking, long lasting prints are achieved by combining Canon's advanced technological achievements. The iPF5100 is designed for reliability, simplicity, productivity and above all, quality.

12 Color Pigment Ink System - New LUCIA inks
The iPF5100 printer's ink set is comprised of 12 colors: four standard
process colors with Photo Cyan and Photo Magenta; plus Red, Green, and
Blue; Matte Black, Gray, and Photo Gray. This unique combination creates
a broad color pallet and delivers exceptional print results. The iPF5100
printer's LUCIA ink is specially formulated to reduce graininess and bronzing
and resist scratching and fading.
Photo Black, Matte Black, Gray and Photo Gray optimize black ink density
for exceptional monochrome photo-quality output. Based on the type of
ink being used, the iPF5100 printer automatically matches the correct
black ink to achieve the best print results.

Built-in Calibration
The iPF5100 printer is equipped with the ability to recalibrate itself
to the original optimal factory settings and apply any necessary adjustments
across the printers. At the same time, this creates a more stable, predictable
printing platform on which superior results can be consistently achieved.
The system has built-in calibration sensors that accurately detect variation
in print heads and measures the density levels of the inks and makes necessary
adjustments to return calibration to the original factory settings.

Print Head - PF 03 - Dual print head system
Engineered for speed and advanced image production, the iPF5100 boasts
Canon's dual print head system to lay down ink with unprecedented speed
and accuracy. Unlike conventional printers with a single print head, the
iPF5100 uses two high-precision, high density print heads with a total
of 30,720 nozzles. It lays down precise 4 picoliter-size ink droplets
to produce sharp detail and excellent image quality.
The superfine 4 picoliter-size droplets produce delicate color gradations
and high-definition. The twin lines of nozzles on the new print heads
enable the iPF5100 to minimize the number of printing passes and still
maintain print quality. The two 1-inch iPF series print heads, each with
6 colors with 2,560 nozzles per color. That's a total of 30,720 nozzles.
More nozzles mean more ink is ejected with every pass of the print head,
no matter what print mode or media. It gives new meaning to "high-speed
output".

L-COA Controller - New Print Controller
| Like other powerful Canon systems, the IPF5100 is built around the
innovative L-COA (Large Format printer Common Architecture) processor.
When it comes to speed and accuracy, the L-COA processor is in a league
of its own. By intelligently processing print data and directing the
high precision, high-density print heads to deposit ink, the system
ensures image clarity and color accuracy, even for complex graphics
and color-rich photographic images. Combined with Canon's dual print
head design and the most ink nozzles per color in the industry, the
L-COA controller helps achieve phenomenal print speeds. |

Print Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and Digital Photo
Professional - An export print module
These export modules allow users to directly process and print RAW image
files from DPP or Adobe Photoshop. These plug-ins are export modules that
bypass the operating systems dependent print driver, allowing processing
of 16-bit RGB images directly, which dramatically increases gradations and
as a result, overall image quality.
New added Features:
Full screen preview
More print quality selections
Categorized paper type view
Roll paper layout view
Bi-cubic enlargement |

Printer Driver 2007
The imagePROGRAF printer driver works with both Windows and Macintosh operating systems offering exceptional, high quality prints through easy usability and accurate color. The printer driver incorporates existing imagePROGRAF features along with new, easy to use functions. The monochrome photo mode produces neutral, high quality monochrome images with the primary use of the Black, Gray and Photo Gray inks. This mode helps to ensure minimal shifts in color that are commonly caused by the use of color inks in black and white prints, thus outputting neutral tones with smooth gradation. Another easy to use feature is the free layout feature, which allows for custom nesting of separate images and documents.
Features
-Web links (Support tab) - An html-based utility that provides access to websites through the printer driver
-Categorized Media list - Media names are organized in a hierarchical tree structure
