Two new Canon imagePrograf printers will be available to order next month. The iPF670 is a 24in wide machine and the iPF770 a 36in wide one, the latter also available as an MFP, with an optional large format scanner and 22in touchscreen display attachment. Canon said both models can print an A1 equivalent image in 28 seconds in the fastest print mode.
New inks have been developed to provide an increased colour gamut, and specifically for more vivid reds for clarity in POS signage and CAD drawings. Two black pigment ink tanks supplement the standard dye inks. The tanks are hot-swappable, and can be replenished mid-print.
Other features include: accounting software; a print utility for the Apple iPad, so users can view and print files straight from their mobile devices; and a stand design for easy switching between a basket or flat-stacking print output.
