Features

• 8-Color LUCIA Ink Technology
  

  An innovative color configuration that further increases print efficiency by dispersing eight colors of ink across twelve ink channels of the two print heads for better ink coverage with each pass and greater productivity without sacrificing image quality. The iPF6000S features eight colors of LUCIA ink (Cyan, Photo Cyan, Magenta, Photo Magenta, Yellow, Black, Matte Black and Gray) for a dynamic color gamut. The inclusion of Gray alongside Photo Cyan and Photo Magenta helps to create smooth gradations and reduced graininess, creating a crisp monotone output. Black, Matte Black and Gray help optimize black density regardless of media type to reproduce better gray tones for smoother transitions from white to black.

• PosterArtist Lite
  

  Canon's PosterArtist Lite poster creation software (included) with the printer, gives users the ability to quickly and easily create professional large format prints. Users simply follow the program's four easy steps to create posters that can be used in applications such as office presentations, trade shows, retail signage and much, much more. The PosterArtist QuickCopy feature provides an easy solution for a CanoScan desktop scanner to be used as a copier, making letter-size flyers and documents into full-size posters with a touch of a button.

  For those with more demanding poster creation needs, Canon's optional PosterArtist 2008 offers advanced features such as Auto Design, Variable Data and in-application image editing features, as well as additional templates, royalty-free photos and clip-art. The built-in weblink featured in PosterArtist Lite links users directly to the PosterArtist Web site for useful hints and tips, and even more free contents for download.

• Economy Color Mode
  

  The Economy Color Mode produces 1200 x 1200 dpi output while reducing ink consumption by 10-20%. This feature regulates the use of Photo Cyan and Photo Magenta inks to produce high-quality output at a lower total cost.

• Built-in 80GB Hard Drive
  

  An 80GB hard drive within the iPF6000S increases productivity by relieving workload from the host PC while providing a large capacity for print job data storage and retrieval. This 80GB hard drive enables job data to be stored in password-protected mailboxes and accessed from Canon's Remote User Interface for quick and easy print management.

  This hard drive supports multiple methods of data erasure and document security, ranging from a quick and easy option that simply removes file system information to a triple overwrite of the hard drive that conforms to the DoD.52220.22-M standard of the U.S. Department of Defense.

• Built-in Calibration
  

  The iPF6000S printer is equipped with the ability to easily reset back to the original optimal factory settings and apply any necessary adjustments across all the printer's media types in just minutes. At the same time this creates a stable, predictable printing platform on which superior results can be consistently achieved. The system has built-in calibration sensors that help compensate for adverse environmental conditions, while providing a predictable platform for color management and consistent color reproduction.

• Print Head (PF-03)
  

  Engineered for speed and advanced image production, the iPF6000S boasts Canon's dual print head system to lay down ink with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Unlike conventional printers with a single print head, the iPF6000S uses two high-precision, high-density print heads with a total of 30,720 nozzles. It lays down precise 4 picoliter-size ink droplets to produce sharp detail and excellent image quality. An innovative ink channel configuration accelerates print efficiency by distributing the ink across the two print heads for better ink coverage with each pass.

• Print Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and Digital Photo Professional
  

  Export modules allow users to directly process and print RAW image files from DPP or Adobe Photoshop. These plug-ins are export modules that bypass the operating system's dependent print driver, allowing processing of 16-bit RGB images directly, which dramatically increases gradations and as a result, overall image quality.

  New added features:

  • Full screen preview
  • More print quality selections
  • Categorized paper type review
  • Roll paper layout view
  • Bi-cubic enlargement
• Print Plug-in for Microsoft Office
  

  This utility makes it easy to print large-format documents created with Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.² This toolbar, with easy Wizard instructions, will bypass the printer driver to simplify the printing process. A few simple steps convert your 8 ½ x 11 office document to poster size.
