Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF8100 Printer

Designed specifically to give the finest results for Fine Art and Photography applications, Canon’s iPF8100 uses a 12-colour LUCIA pigment ink system which produces exceptionally accurate colours, expressive black and whites and is incredibly cost effective too.

Exceptional colours and brilliant black and white

Canon’s incredible 12-colour LUCIA pigment ink system produces the full spectrum of colours with unnerving accuracy and perfect balance due to the innovative inclusion of both RGB and CMY inks. A dual print head featuring 30,720 nozzles produces super-fine, evenly distributed 4 picolitre ink droplets.

Black and white photography work has never looked so good. A combination of black, matt black, grey and photo grey inks allow for incredibly smooth graduation without graininess for incredibly lifelike photography. Opening the door to numerous applications such as wedding photography, christenings, and the rapidly growing lifestyle portrait work.

Equally important, the iPF8100 lets you produce work that’s here to stay, with prints that are guaranteed to be unaffected by light (Lightfastness) for 100 years and with borderless printing up to 42” your prints will have maximum impact.

With an on-board colour calibration tool, your prints will be consistent from print to print and there is no need for external devices, once calibrated the printer is set-up.

Cost effective and highly productive printing

The multitude of inks available plus the inclusion of two separate grey inks means that, unlike conventional systems, there is much less need to blend colours (to create other colours) and as a consequence, less ink is required. Meaning brilliant results that are highly cost effective too.

Such an innovative system doesn’t mean compromise your deadlines either. The iPF8100 can print A1 draft prints in just over 2 minutes. . High capacity ink tanks (700ml) can also be replaced whilst printing for consistent, deadline beating performance.

Our Opinion

Canon claim that this device uses 31% less ink than the Epson 9880, with the current agressive pricing from Canon the ipf8100 is particularly good value!
