Overview

New LUCIA PRO II Ink

Designed to produce vivid colour prints with more accurate colour reproduction and improved black density colour output than predecessor models.


Achievable Output

  • Improved black density with a wide dark-colour gamut range
  • High scratch resistance
  • Excellent light resistance for long-term preservation of print


Colour Calibration

This helps ensure your output is colour consistent over time and across multiple imagePROGRAF PRO Series devices.


Media Handling

Intelligent media handling helps reduce time and waste

  • Automatic media feeding
  • Automatic media type, width, and length detection
  • Reduced media feed processing time from previous imagePROGRAF PRO Series models

Multifunction Roll Unit

  • Optional for the imagePROGRAF PRO-4600 and imagePROGRAF PRO-2600


"Ease of Use" Body Design

  • The user interface screen displays the ink levels, media indicator levels, and other setting prompts all on the home screen
  • Easily see ink tanks and loaded media through translucent covers
  • Interior LED light for reliable operation, such as previewing output while printing


Environmentally Conscious

These models are registered as gold products in the U.S. EPEAT® environmental assessment system by the Global Electronics Council (GEC) EPEAT Climate Criteria, a nonprofit organization in the U.S. that provides verification of the environmental attributes of imaging equipment. Each model is also an ENERGY STAR® certified product. Final assembly and production for the printers is carried out at a production center in which 100 percent electricity used comes from renewable energy.


Software

  • Professional Print and Layout enables easy professional photo printing with editing and layout tools, as well as
    colour management capabilities.
  • Free Layout Plus is a print utility that lets you nest, tile, and create custom layouts before printing your files.
  • Accounting Manager helps track actual ink and media usage and costs.


500GB Hard Drive

A built-in 500 GB hard drive within the printer increases productivity by relieving workload from the host Mac or PC, while providing a large capacity for print job data storage and retrieval. This 500 GB hard drive enables job data to be stored in protected mailboxes for easy access via web browser or at the printer for job re-printing. The embedded hard disk is ideal for medium to large workgroups to share a printer efficiently with multiple users, offering sample job storage space.


Security Features

Developed with advanced security features, including support of secure PIN printing to protect data and the ability to disable printing, increasing administrative control of end-user printing.


Wi-Fi Compatible

Stay Connected. Wi-Fi connectivity is standard with the PRO Series printers.


Sub Ink Tank System

The Sub-Ink Tank System allows virtually all of the available ink in a tank to be used before having to replace it, helping to eliminate wasted ink. The empty tanks can also be replaced on-the-fly without stopping the printer. This is extremely useful during your long print jobs.


Media Configuration Tool

Recognizing the expanding array of media options for large format printers and to further improve the versatility of these new imagePROGRAF models, Canon has developed a Media Configuration Tool, which allows customers to not only utilize Canon-branded media, but provides the ability to make adjustments to printer settings to enhance the precision and quality of output achieved with third party media.


Settings that can be configured using media parameter adjustment features include:


• Media weight and thickness

• Ink drying

• Automatic cutting settings

• Borderless printing

• Paper feed amount

• Print-head height

• Vacuum strength

• Maximum ink usage
