Canon Launches the imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 Professional A2 Plus Inkjet Printer for Photographers, Great for Large Format Printing

 

BRAMPTON, Ontario (October 1, 2024) – Canon Canada Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced the launch of the imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 Professional Inkjet Printer, a 17-inch, large format solution with 11-colours plus a “Chroma Optimizer,” the newest product in Canon’s "imagePROGRAF series" large format printers for photographers and fine art.

 

By adopting the newly developed pigment ink, "LUCIA PRO II"1, the new printer is designed to meet the needs of professional photographers who want to print high-quality photos, while preserving the appeal of their work for the future. The Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 is designed to provide superior light resistance for long-term preservation of high-quality printed works.

 

Designed to Expand Colour Reproduction

The Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 adopts a newly developed LUCIA PRO II1 pigment ink system designed to help improve the image quality from previous models while also enhancing resistance to light. Improved black density on art paper was achieved by changing the formulation and material of matte black ink. The reformulated Chroma Optimizer is designed to give the surface a clear coat of transparent ink that helps suppress bronze phenomena and helps reduce uneven glossiness.

 

Designed for Light and Scratch Resistance

The new pigment ink designed to provide improved light resistance and scratch resistance provides excellent image robustness, and allows for long-term appreciation and preservation. In addition, the glossy/semi-glossy printing surface is designed to be slippery and more resistant to scratches, making it easier to handle in framing, packaging, transportation, display, and other work where the print could be easily damaged.

 

Canon is proud to announce the imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 has earned an EPEAT Gold designation as a product that has met EPEAT’s most demanding set of criteria for sustainability leadership in electronics2. The new model contributes to Canon’s commitment to sustainability by eliminating the use of polystyrene foam in product packing.

 

Availability and Pricing

The Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 is scheduled to be available in early October 2024 for the suggested retail price (MSRP) of $1,599.99*.
