12 color inks for
ultra-high-quality imaging

Two print-heads
ensure faster output

L-COA Image Processor

Built-in calibration, LUCIA inks,
and Kyuanos color management—
all in one printer
The new iPF6100 printer is equipped with the
ability to recalibrate itself to the original optimal
factory settings and apply any necessary
adjustments across the printer’s media types.
This creates a more stable, predictable printing
platform on which superior results can be
consistently achieved.

• Looks

great from every angle. The
polymer coating also reduces “bronzing”
so that images printed by the iPF6100
printer will not have an unwanted sheen
when viewed from different angles.

KYUANOS—MAINTAINING PRECISE COLOR
IN ANY ENVIRONMENT
The iPF6100 printer achieves uniform highquality color with Canon’s development of
Kyuanos, the next-generation color management system that delivers consistent and
accurate color under different viewing
conditions such as fluorescent lights,
incandescent lights, or sunlight.

Sophisticated color science is made simple by
a sensor that scans and reads test patterns;
makes calculations for color density, light,
and media; and then automatically applies
any needed adjustments across the print
profiles for the media types. The profiles
applied by the iPF6100 printer have been
specifically optimized by Canon to address the
unique requirements of printing large-format
images. The result is reliable color reproduction across the media types, from machine
to machine, print to print, day after day.

Kyuanos incorporates the advanced
Ambient Light Adjustment function for
select media,* which optimizes output
for differences in lighting conditions for
consistent color in accordance with
different lighting environments. This
function is to ensure optimal color
reproduction in each finished print.

LUCIA INK, CANON’S MOST
ADVANCED INK FORMULATION
Canon’s LUCIA pigment ink offers excellent
color fastness and stability with a remarkably
wide color gamut.

With the imagePROGRAF Lighting
Check Chart, it’s easy to gauge ambient
lighting conditions without having to
use special tools.

• Smooth

color transitions and solid fills.
The iPF6100 printer’s LUCIA ink is specially
formulated to reduce graininess. Images
printed with this ink will have a smoother,
more continuous tone for a more “photographic” effect.
• Durable prints. A special polymer coating
around each ink particle improves ink
adhesion with media to increase durability
and scratch resistance.

CRISP CLEAN MONOCHROME OUTPUT
Black, Matte Black, Gray, and Photo Gray
have been reformulated for exceptional
monochrome photo-quality output. Plus,
these new inks dramatically reduce bronzing
while providing stronger ink adhesion to the
print media resulting in better scratch-resistance. Based on the type of media being
used, the iPF6100 printer automatically
matches the correct black ink to achieve
the best print results. By automatically
switching between the two black inks,
Canon has eliminated the waste that can
occur if these inks must be switched manually.

BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE
AND PRODUCTIVITY
At the core the iPF6100 printer is Canon’s
innovative L-COA processor—an advanced
system processor that optimizes output
speed and print quality. L-COA intelligently
manages print data and directs the highprecision, high-density print-heads to deposit
ink with unprecedented speed. This unique
processor ensures that complex graphics
and color-rich photographic images are
optimized for clarity, richness, and accuracy.
Canon’s L-COA processor provides the basis
for advanced and rapid image processing,
then channels the output through dual oneinch print-heads, each with 2,560 nozzles
per color for a total of 30,720 nozzles. More

nozzles means more ink is ejected with
every pass of the print-head for high-speed
output in every mode. Superfine 4pl ink
droplets and resolutions up to 2400 x 1200 dpi
produce the delicate color gradation and the
high-definition expression required for photoquality images, small fonts, and precise lines.
OPTIMIZING YOUR OPERATING TIME
The iPF6100 printer incorporates an array
of utilities designed to maximize system
run-time and enhance operator productivity,
including:
• Media length detection and management
• Ink-level detection system
• Non-firing nozzle detection and
compensation systems

CANON WORKFLOW
SOLUTIONS
An array of workflow
solutions are available with
the iPF6100 printer to expand
its capabilities and simplify its
use. These software packages
provide the additional tools
needed to address the unique
Print Plug-in for Photoshop
requirements of large-format
printing applications.
• Print Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and
Digital Photo Professional for enhanced
image processing
• Canon Printer Driver 2007 to
optimize workflow productivity
• Digital Photo Front-Access—Digital file
display and application linkage software
• PosterArtist 2007 (optional) poster-creation
software

PORTRAITS AND PHOTOGRAPHY
Canon, a leader in digital photography,
has included with the iPF6100 printer the
essential tools and technologies needed to
produce exceptional photo enlargements.

Digital Photo Front-Access has been developed by Canon as a utility to import images
from a camera, memory card, USB, etc. and
incorporate them into software applications
such as PosterArtist and Adobe Photoshop.
The Print Plug-in for Photoshop and Digital
Photo Professional enable 16-bit image
processing of images to dramatically improve
gradations and image quality. The system’s
wide color gamut produces richer, deeper
tones and more realistic images.
Canon’s durable LUCIA pigment inks are
formulated to further reduce graininess,
minimize “bronzing,” and resist scratching and
fading. These features combined with the
iPF6100 printer’s high-resolution output and
precise placement of a tiny 4pl droplet mean
that museum-quality photo enlargements
can be produced with absolute confidence.

PROOFING
The speed of the iPF6100 printer makes
it one of the fastest proofing devices
available; an application such as an entire
magazine layout can print at outstanding
speeds. The wide color gamut enabled by the
12-color ink set means that a greater range
of colors can be reproduced and the stability
of Canon’s LUCIA pigment inks increases
the reliability of the proof, as the prints will
exhibit little or no perceptible color shift.
Canon’s patented 30,720-nozzle, 2400 x
1200 dpi print-head technology delivers
clear images, smooth transitions, and solid
fills required for professional proofing
applications.
POSTERS, BANNERS,
DISPLAYS, AND MORE...
For professionals, capability means productivity
and profit. The iPF6100 printer is equipped
with an array of software applications and
advanced printing technologies to expand the
range of possibilities into the full spectrum
of professional graphic applications. With
PosterArtist 2007* (optional), posters,
signs, and banners can be easily designed,
incorporating logos, digital photos, and
other content, and then printed on a
variety of media.
Durable LUCIA pigment inks and borderless
printing up to 24" wide mean projects can
be completed quickly, with minimal finishing
work. A wide range of media—including a
variety of papers, adhesive-backed materials,
and backlit film make it possible to create a
diverse range of large-format applications.
High-speed throughput means deadlines
can be met and full production runs can be
produced on time.
