FEATURES & ADVANTAGES
High-Speed Printing: L-COA processor
Output a D-size (24"x36") drawings in approximately 28 seconds*. When you need to keep projects moving
forward and meet deadlines, this kind of speed is critical. Powering these incredible print speeds is Canon's
L-COA (Large Format Printer COmmon Architecture) print controller, driving the imagePROGRAF print
engine to lay down ink with exceptional speed and precision. This unique, high-speed processor enables the
print system to process large volumes of data while optimizing output of complex high-color GIS images and
architectural renderings for maximum readability and color accuracy.
*When printing in fast mode on plain paper. Includes paper-cutting time.
Space-Saving, Environmentally Conscious Design
This printer was designed to be space-saving and environmentally conscious. This printer carries a small
footprint with fully front-accessible operation for flush wall installation that fits into almost any environment.
And loading roll media is simple with built in loading guide rails and an automatic roll feeder. Made with less
plastic, and reduced CO2 emissions, this model has earned ENERGY STAR qualification, and draws only
140 watts of power during use.
Productivity: Print Longer without Interruption
Canon's unique sub-ink tank system means you can replace ink on-the-fly without stopping the printer. For
long print runs, a high-capacity media basket comes standard with this printer. And its highly durable self-
propelled dual rotary cutter allows for even faster printing of multi-page jobs.

Precision Printing: High-Density PF-04 Print Head
Engineered for speed and advanced image production, this printer boasts Canon's latest print-head
technology to lay down ink with unprecedented speed and accuracy. The new PF-04 print head incorporates
a new nozzle shape to reduce satellite ink, producing cleaner lines and text, and minimizing mist. The high-
precision, high-density print head, with a total of 15,360 nozzles, lays down 4 picoliter-size ink droplets that
produce sharp detail and excellent image quality. The result is consistently accurate 2400 x 1200 dpi output
with fine lines that are accurate to ±0.10% and as thin as 0.02mm.

Economy Print Mode

This feature regulates the use of all inks to produce quick check plots while minimizing the cost per print.
Reactive Ink System
Ideal for technical applications, Canon's breakthrough 5-color dye/pigment Reactive Ink technology utilizes
four highly colorfast dye inks for producing bold, expressive color, plus two channels of matte black ink for
printing precise lines, smooth curves, and small text on technical and office documents. Now with new
magenta ink for richer, more vivid reds, this ink system is ideal for both GIS drawings and posters. These
Canon inks provide superior adhesion to media, scratch and marker resistance, and ensure minimal
"bleeding" between colors and text. Even small text printed on colored backgrounds or on uncoated
technical papers is crisp and legible.
HDI Driver
With the Canon HDI Driver for AutoCAD application, the driver creates a vector graphical representation of
the printed data. Here, points are defined and a curved line is calculated mathematically in order to achieve
precision. The HDI Driver creates a graphically accurate drawing of the printed data.
