Canon’s comment
Junichi Wachi, Director of LFP EMEA, Canon Europe, says: “The choice of four GP printer models offering 10 or 5 aqueous pigment inks with the addition of fluorescent pink ink and three different widths allows businesses of any size to reproduce a wider range of colors and add a touch of sparkle to each print thanks to the fluorescent pink. This is how effective posters with a strong visual impact are born. These new large format printers match the rest of the imagePROGRAF family in terms of productivity, efficiency and ease of use “
