Canon imagePROGRAF TM-250 | A1 24″ Large Format Printer
Compact, quiet, and cost-efficient CAD and poster printing
The Canon TM-250 6240C003AC A1 printer brings Canon’s proven TM-series print quality and reliability to users who don’t require onboard hard-drive storage. Sharing the same compact design, print engine and LUCIA TD pigment ink system as the TM-255, the TM-250 is designed for smaller workgroups producing CAD drawings, technical documents, and posters without the need for local data retention.
Instead of a hard drive, the TM-250 uses 2GB of internal memory, making it a simpler, security-friendly option for environments where print data doesn’t need to be stored on the device.
Compact design, professional capability
With its small footprint and included stand and basket, the TM-250 fits neatly into offices, studios, classrooms, and site cabins where space and noise levels matter.
- 24″ wide format (A1) printing for CAD, GIS, and graphics
- Ultra-quiet operation (approx. 39dB) for shared environments
- 4.3″ colour touchscreen for intuitive control
- Easy top-loading roll media and simple sheet feeding
- Clean, modern design identical to the TM-255
Sharp CAD lines and vibrant colour
Powered by Canon’s 5-colour LUCIA TD pigment ink system, the TM-250 delivers excellent technical accuracy alongside strong colour performance.
- Crisp fine lines and dense blacks for CAD and drawings
- Water, smudge, and fade-resistant output
- Borderless printing for posters and signage
- Enhanced magenta for brighter reds and more vivid colour
Simplified performance for everyday printing
The Canon TM-250 6240C003AC A1 printer is built to be efficient and easy to live with:
- Fast first print and quick wake-up from sleep
- Automatic media detection and straightforward roll changes
- Compatible with Canon scanners for optional MFP expansion
- Uses cost-effective 130ml and 300ml ink cartridges
Storage and security: TM-250 vs TM-255
Unlike the TM-255, the TM-250 doesn’t include a hard drive. Instead, it features 2GB of internal memory and processes jobs directly from the connected device or network.
This makes the TM-250 a strong fit for:
- Users with lighter workloads / less complex files
- Environments with strict data-retention policies
- Offices that don’t require job storage, reprints, or queue history
For users needing onboard storage, secure job retention, or faster repeat printing, the TM-255 with its 128GB memory and 500GB encrypted HDD remains the better choice.
Efficient and environmentally conscious
- Energy Star certified (EU/UK)
- EPEAT Gold (USA)
- Low power consumption with smart energy-saving modes
- Polystyrene-free packaging
- Whisper-quiet operation for noise-sensitive spaces
