Canon imagePROGRAF iPF9100 |
|
|
Built to put advanced printing technologies into the hands
of artists and photographers, the new 60" iPF9100 will help to fulfill your
creative potential like never before. With the iPF9100, Canon delivers impressive
60" color output, strength in paper handling and speed in output - everything
a professional needs to productively and efficiently create enhanced color
materials. The iPF9100 printer is designed to fulfill the needs of any digital
artist looking to create captivating images from capture to output. The
iPF9100 is equipped with a unique pallette of 12 colors to deliver a broader
gamut for greater tonal range and more precise color reproduction. 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 iPF9100 incorporates
the 12-color pigment ink system with LUCIA™ inks, the L-COA controller,
along with an 80GB hard drive. 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 these advanced technological Canon achievements.
Its built-in features put the power to produce at your fingertips. Designed for reliability, simplicity, and above all, quality, the iPF9100 is the professional's answer for superior quality prints. The new iPF9100 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 iPF9100 has opened a world of new possibilities with Canon's workflow solutions that simplify printer operation and expand the creative options for large-format photography and fine-art applications.

12-Color Pigment Ink System - New LUCIA inks
The iPF9100 printer's ink set is comprised of 12 colors: four standard process
colors with Photo Cyan and Photo Magenta; plus Red, Green, Blue, Matte Black,
Gray, and Photo Gray. This unique combination creates a broad color pallet
and delivers exceptional print results. The iPF9100 printer's LUCIA ink
is specially formulated to reduce graininess and bronzing and resist scratching
and fading. Black, Matte Black, Gray and Photo Gray have been reformulated
to optimize black ink density for exceptional monochrome photo-quality output.
Based on the type of media being used, the iPF9100 printer automatically
chooses the correct black ink to achieve the best print results. |
Built in 80GB Hard Drive
The hard drive storage space within the iPF9100 increases productivity
by relieving workload from the host PC while providing a large capacity
for print job data storage and retrieval. This 80GB hard drive enables
job data to be stored in protected mail boxes for easy access and printing.
|
Built-in Calibration
The iPF9100 printer is equipped with the ability to recalibrate itself
to the original optimal factory settings and apply any necessary adjustments
across all the printer's media types. This creates a 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 measure the density levels of the inks and make necessary
adjustments to return calibration to the original factory settings.
|
Dual Print Head System
Engineered for speed and advanced image production, the iPF9100 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
iPF9100 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 for each color on the new print heads enable the iPF9100
to minimize the number of printing passes and still maintain print quality.
The two 1-inch iPF series print heads each boast 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."

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 system's 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 feature2, 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
More detailed page preview - provides a clearer and more intuitive preview
Scan to Copy - imageRUNNER enlargement copy
14 preset document profiles (examples are Poster, CAD, Photo)
Automatic print quality options dependent on print application and media
Borderless printing
Saturation Adjustment
Easy Setting/Advanced Setting/Print Setting
Monochrome Photo Mode Support for Adobe RGB

L-COA Controller - New Print Controller
Like other powerful Canon systems, the iPF9100 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.
