Canon i850 User manual

Intelligent design. Incredible results.
The Canon i850 Photo Printer sets a new performance standard for delivering superior quality and breakthrough speed simultaneously.
It delivers output resolution up to an ultra-high 4800 x 1200 color dpi and incredibly fast speeds of up to 22 ppm in black and up to
14 ppm in color. The i850 printer produces outstanding, photo-lab quality 4" x 6" borderless photos in less than 48 seconds. And
when printed on Canon Photo Paper Pro, photos will retain their brilliance for approx. 25 years*.* The i850 printer has the unique Canon
Think Tank System™ that combines individual ink tanks with intelligent ink management for ease-of-use and lower printing costs*.
A new breakthrough: 2 picoliter ultra-fine droplets.
The i850 printer introduces a new printhead with a unique combination of 5 picoliter droplets for coverage and ultra-fine 2 picoliter
droplets for photo-realism. Achieving this array of reduced droplet sizes is amazing—but it’s only half the story. Increased precision
is necessary to realize the potential for higher quality printing. The answer: advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology™ with an
exclusive 1600-nozzle system that can eject approximately 19 million droplets per second. Accuracy and consistency is maintained
for maximum resolution and image quality. The i850 printer also has advanced Precision Color Distribution Technology to virtually
eliminate color variance and banding problems typically found with conventional high-speed, bi-directional printing.
Easy-PhotoPrint*** software and Exif Print: smart photo processing of digital camera images.
The i850 printer supports Exif 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), a new worldwide standard for higher quality digital photos. The
i850 printer with exclusive Easy-PhotoPrint software delivers the potential of Exif Print—and more. When an Exif compliant digital
camera captures a photo, important camera settings and shooting conditions are saved in the JPEG image file. Simple-to-use
Easy-PhotoPrint analyzes the recorded data then automatically adjusts printer driver settings for optimum image processing. The
result: digital photos that are more likely to match the photographer’s true intentions.
