FEATURES & ADVANTAGES:
5
Color Reactive Ink System
The Reactive ink system consists of four highly colorfast dye color
inks and 2 channels of matte black pigment ink. Doubling the matte
black is used for high peed printing of line drawings and text
oriented office documents. When printing, four of the colors may be
applied at the same time, since matte black or black is automatically
selected based on the media type elected in the printer driver. Matte
black will be used when printing on plain or matte media whereas the
dye-based black will be used when printing on coated or glossy paper.
The unique reactive ink formulation lso provides improved resistance
against scratches and marks when compared to conventional dye inks.
L-COA
Controller - Print Controller
Like other powerful Canon systems, the IPF610 is built around the
innovative L-COA (Large Format printer COmmon Architecture) processor.
When it omes to speed and accuracy, the L-COA processor is in a league
of its own. By intelligently processing print data and directing the
high precision, high-density print heads to deposit ink, the system
ensures image clarity and color accuracy - even for complex graphics
and color-rich photographic images. Combined with Canon''''s dual print
head design and the most ink nozzles per color in the industry, the L-COA
controller helps achieve phenomenal print speeds.
High Density Print-Head PF-03
Engineered for speed and advanced image production, the iPF610 boasts
Canon''''s latest print-head technology to lay down ink with
unprecedented speed and accuracy. The iPF610 uses a high-precision,
high density print head with a total of 15,360 nozzles to lay down 4
picoliter-size ink droplets to produce sharp detail and excellent
image quality. The superfine 4 picoliter-size droplets produce
delicate color gradations and high-definition. The twin lines of
nozzles on the print head enable the iPF610 to minimize the number of
printing passes and still maintain print quality. More nozzles mean
more ink is ejected with every pass of the print head, no matter what
print mode or media. It gives new meaning to "high-speed output"
Clogged Nozzle Detection and Compensation
The printer will automatically perform the necessary cleaning without
any intervention from the user. If the nozzle remains obstructed, the
imagePROGRAF will reroute the ink to other functioning nozzles to
compensate for the clog.

Manual Top Feed
With the
iPF610 all media loading can be accessed from the front of the
printer; there is no necessity for the user to go behind the printer
in order to load paper. For ease of use, an automatic media switching
feature has been added, keeping the workflow speed on par with the
printer. Media switching is done within the printer driver and doesn''''''''t
require the user to physically go to the printer to make a change. Its
manual top-feeding design improves performance, while a refined
printing sequence delivers accelerated throughput overall. The iPF610
supports a media thickness of up to 1.5mm through the front manual
feed.
HDI
Driver
With the Canon HDI Driver, the driver creates a vector graphical
representation of the printed data. Here points are defined and a
curved line is calculated mathematically in order to achieve
precision. The HDI Driver creates a graphically accurate drawing of
the printed data.

roll, before it is removed from the printer.
Borderless Printing
The printer is capable of producing 4-sided, borderless prints in
minutes. This edge-to-edge printing ability eliminates the need for
cutting and is just one example of the efficiency and innovation built
into the Canon solution.
