5-color Reactive Ink technology
iPF710 / 610

Printing made simple—so you
can get the results you want
CANON’S 5-COLOR DYE/PIGMENT
REACTI E INK TECHNOLOGY
From technical applications to general
office use, Canon’s 5-color dye/pigment
Reactive nk technology delivers precise
lines, smooth curves, and excellent graphic
images. Four colorfast dye-based inks
(Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) ensure
bold expressive color output, while two
channels of pigment-based Matte Black ink
enhance the quality of line drawings and
text-oriented office documents even on
uncoated papers. Canon’s advanced
Reactive nk technology helps prevent
colors and text from bleeding and improves
adhesion for more durable output. All inks
are loaded at the same time with automatic
switching of the black inks for best results
on the media being used.
A PRIORITY ON PRECISION
Precision counts in every business and is
especially important for technical document
applications like G S mapping, CAD designs,
and architectural drawings. Canon’s large-
format printing systems make precision a
priority. The embedded L-COA processor is
the system’s “brain” that handles complex
data and drives the super-high-density
print-head to lay ink down with precision.
FAST, HIGH-QUALITY, HIGH-
RESOLUTION OUTPUT
A large 1.07" super-high-density print-head
deposits tiny droplets of ink (4pl) through
15,360 nozzles to produce high-resolution
output up to 2400 x 1200 dpi. More nozzles
means that ink is ejected more efficiently
with each pass of the print-head. This
reduces the number of passes required to
produce a high-quality image and increases
throughput speed in all print modes.
MANAGE MEDIA EASILY
A variety of new enhancements make
the iPF710/610 easy to use. A media
detection and management system helps
conserve precious time and materials by
warning the user if there’s not enough
media to complete a job. And a new,
automatic media-switching feature on the
iPF610 enables media selection within the
printer driver, eliminating the need to walk
to the printer to make a change.
