With the imagePROGRAF iPF5100 Large Format Printer, brilliant colour, 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 colour professional looking for striking, full-bleed colour output with strength in paper handling and exceptional speed in output. The iPF5100 printer is engineered to produce colours, fine details, and subtle expressions required for some of the most challenging colour environments such as photography, proofing and professional graphic applications. The 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-colour pigment ink system with LUCIA inks offers excellent colour fastness and stability with a remarkably wide colour gamut. The 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-Colour Pigment Ink System - LUCIA inks 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 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 4pl ink droplets to produce sharp detail and excellent image quality. The superfine 4pl droplets produce delicate colour 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 colours with 2,560 nozzles per colour. 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 - Print Controller Like other powerful Canon systems, the IPF5100 is built around the innovative L-COA (Large Format printer Common Architecture) processor. When in 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 colour accuracy – even for complex graphics and colour-rich photographic images. Combined with Canon's dual print head design and the most ink nozzles per colour in the industry, the L-COA controller helps achieve phenomenal print speeds 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 all media types. At the same times 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 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 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 colour. The printer driver incorporates existing imagePROGRAF functions 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 colour that are commonly caused by the use of colour 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 Digital Photo Front Access The Digital Photo Front Access has been developed by Canon as a utility to import images from a camera, memory card, USB, etc and incorporate them into software applications such as PosterArtist and Photoshop. • Auto image retouching |
