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 pallet 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
  The iPF9100 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 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 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 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 measures the density levels of the inks and makes necessary adjustments to return calibration to the original factory settings.

• Automatic Switching Between Black Inks - Utilizes automatic switching between Regular Black and Matte Black Ink, helping to eliminate wasted ink and time of swapping out ink tanks
  

• 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."

• Borderless Printing - 4-sided edge-to-edge printing, only with roll media
  

• Efficiency & Speed - The iPF9100's built-in 80GB HDD processes jobs fast, maintains productivity and enables easy, unmanned printing
  

• Non-firing Detection and Compensation Function - when clogged or non-firing nozzles are detected, print head cleaning cycle is automatically executed. If the nozzle remains obstructed, the iPF9100 will automatically compensate by re-routing the ink to functioning nozzles

• L-COA Controller - New Print Controller
  Like other powerful Canon systems, the iIPF9100 is built around the innovative L-COA (Large Format Pprinter 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
