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 iPF8000S features 8 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 along side 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.
New Print
Mode
![]()
The new Economy Print Mode produces 1200 x 1200 dpi output
at 211ft2/hr on coated and uncoated paper stocks while
reducing ink consumption by 10% to 20%. This new 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
![]()
Increased hard drive storage space within the iPF8000S
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
protected mail boxes for easy access and printing.
Built in
Calibration
![]()
The iPF8000S 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 times 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
iPF8000S 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 iPF8000S 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 An export
print module
![]()
These 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 systems 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
