Canon has announced a new flagship pro printer, the Canon ImagePrograf PRO-1100 - an update to the nearly decade-old ImagePrograf PRO-1000 professional printer aimed at studios, professional photographers and businesses.
It boasts the exact same physical dimensions (723x435x285mm) and weight (32.4kg) as its predecessor, but don't be fooled by its similar appearance; inside it's brimming with new exciting tech, such as 5G Wi-Fi.
The PRO-1100 can print at sizes up to A2+ or 17-inch. However, using paper roll, the PRO-1100 can now make prints well over twice as wide as the PRO-1000 could; while its predecessor could produce panoramas up to 1.2m wide, the PRO-1100 can create panoramas up to 3.27m.
The ImagePrograf PRO-1100 is designed for high yields using a wide range of 12 inks and Chroma Optimizer. "By being applied over the printed image to cover the bumps between ink droplets,
Chroma Optimizer levels the ink droplet height in order to enhance the glossiness and flatten the print surface, as well as expanding colour gamut," explains Canon.
Like its predecessor, the PRO-1100 takes 12 ink cartridges - each of which has a large 80ml capacity although they are new PFI-41000 inks.
