The imagePROGRAF W2200 boasts excellent cost-
performance with large-capacity ink tanks (130ml
for each color), making possible nearly effortless
replenishing for high print volumes. The cassette
allows high-capacity paper feeding of up to 500
sheets with the optional cassette. The high
potential of the imagePROGRAF W2200 can also
be put to full use in the prepress field, which
demands high productivity in addition to high
speed and image quality.

Full-front operation allows the imagePROGRAF W2200
to be installed almost anywhere. All operations,
as well as replacement procedures, can be per-
formed from the front. Thus, it conveniently fits
wherever you need it, including rack, below-desk,
or recessed locations.
The Direct Digital Color Proof (DDCP) machines
currently used in the printing industry for digital
proofs are exceedingly expensive. This is another
way the imagePROGRAF W2200–with its digital
proofs printing capability–can be a huge cost-
saver. Besides its low initial purchase price,
it also has a minimal running cost because it
needs no periodic maintenance or parts
replacement.

Today’s graphics professional is an artist, a designer, and even a
time-pressed businessperson who needs speed, quality, AND
productivity when it comes to a color ink-jet printer. A printer that
does all three is exactly what you need.
But there’s only one printer that’s also highly affordable, with an
amazingly low running cost.
It’s the Canon imagePROGRAF™ W2200.
The imagePROGRAF W2200 is today’s state-of-the-art ink-jet
printer that offers a huge array of features with the professional
graphic artist always in mind. This color printer has superior
speed, astonishing photo-image quality, and absolutely unri-
valed productivity, thanks to a number of Canon’s printing tech-
nology breakthroughs.
The imagePROGRAF W2200 yields the best of any creative work,
from design planning to final proofing, for any type of output,
such as comps, presentations, color proofs and final proofs. It’s
even ideal for remote proofs. Yet, it’s affordable, easy to use, and
ready to get right to work for you.

High-definition color printing has always meant frus-
trating delays, as your printer sacrificed speed for
resolution. It was a fact of creative life–the choice
between speed and quality. Need a proof for the
client? Hit the print button, then go get a cup of cof-
fee as your productivity grinds to a halt. Want a quick
print? Then forget rich, crystal-clear color images.
But that was then. Today, Canon eliminates the
wait, delivers gorgeous printing results, and boosts
your productivity and creativity with the
imagePROGRAF W2200.
It took our new, high-density one-inch print head to
deliver fast, high-quality output from an affordable
ink-jet printer—previously incompatible printer con-
cepts. This newly developed print head is an integra-
tion of Canon’s cutting-edge technologies, combining
the precision process technology used in semicon-
ductor manufacturing and original materials technol-
ogy, and the new MicroFine Droplet Technology.™
The result is a high-density, high-spec print head
that’s 1.07 inches wide and contains 1,280 nozzles
for each of six ink colors, giving you precise and uni-
form dot placement. This print head yields immense
advantages for the professional creator.

• Test time for all printers was measured from start of paper feed to final
ejection of the printed page.
• Canon believes this test to be fairly conducted. However, because there
is no document, PC, or application that serves as the industry standard
for benchmark printing tests, the results may differ depending on the
document, PC, or application used.
