An unparalleled pallet of colors!
With a 12-color ink set that includes cyan,
photo cyan, magenta, photo magenta, yellow,
red, green, and blue plus four monochromatic
hades—black, matte black, gray, and photo-
s
gray—these printers deliver a broad gamut
for greater tonal range and more precise
reproduction of color.
•
The 12-color advantage: Canon’s 12-color
system enables a wide color gamut with
an extraordinary range of depth and tone,
empowering you to produce images with
vibrant saturated colors, subtle hues,
smooth transitions, and deep shadows.
•
Red, Green, and Blue: These colors
expand the color space while significantly
improving saturation levels for the additive
primary colors.
•
Photo Cyan, Photo Magenta, Gray,
and Photo Gray: These colors help
smooth color transitions, reduce graininess, and maintain a neutral gray balance
for better overall image quality.
•
Four monochromic shades: A greater
black to white tonal range is enabled for
more dramatic light to dark contrast and
better mid-tone clarity. Black density on
coated and uncoated media is optimized
because the printer will automatically
select the appropriate black ink based
on the type of media being used.
ARCHIVAL LUCIA INKS
Canon’s specially formulated LUCIA
igment inks have outstanding archival
p
characteristics. By coating each pigment
particle with a special polymer compound
Canon has increased the ink’s resistance
to fading and scratching. These specially
for mulated inks also improve image quality
by reducing graininess and bronzing, so
prints look great from every angle.

Built for performance and productivity
At the core of the iPF6100 and iPF6200
printers is the L-COA processor. This is a
unique Canon innovation that intelligently
irects output data through the dual,
d
high-density print-heads, each with 2,560
nozzles per color for a total of 30,720
nozzles. Each print-head deposits ink on
the media with both speed and accuracy.
By combining high-speed, precision imaging
with superfine 4pl ink droplets and print
resolutions up to 2400 x 1200 dpi, these
large-format printers are built to efficiently
produce a full range of color-rich images
and complex graphics demanded by fine art
applications and professional photographers.
HIGH-CAPACITY 80GB HARD DRIVE
(iPF6200 ONLY)
For busy work groups and production printing
environments, Canon offers the iPF6200
model, equipped with an 80GB hard drive that
has 30 individual Mail Boxes, support for up
to 500 job records, and enhanced security
features to help protect sensitive materials.
The extra-large hard drive maximizes
productivity by relieving the workload from
an operator’s host computer while providing
more capacity for print job data storage and
retrieval so multiple copies and reprints can
be made without resending the job files.
SYSTEM CALIBRATION—SIMPLIFIED
Unlike the complex and time-consuming
alibration normally required in professional
c
settings, these printers offer a simplified
process that enables easy recalibration
back to the original, optimal factory settings across all the printer’s media types—
in just minutes.
KYUANOS: CANON’S NEXT-GENERATION
COLOR MATCHING PLATFORM
Kyuanos is a high-precision color matching
engine developed by Canon. This underlying
technology supports rich color expression
across a wide spectrum of input and output formats and enables advanced color
management functions such as Ambient
Light Adjustment, which optimizes output
for more predictable and consistent color
perception in the lighting conditions of an
intended display location.
iPF6200/6100
An array of workflow solutions are available
that expand the system’s capabilities and
simplify its use. These software packages
rovide the additional tools needed to address
p
the unique requirements of large-format
printing applications.

Achieve Magnificent Results
Every aspect of these imagePROGRAF
printers has been engineered for the production of ultra-high quality large-format images.
PORTRAITS AND PHOTOGRAPHY
A world leader in digital photography,
Canon has included with these printers the
essential tools and technologies needed
to produce exceptional photo enlargements.
The Print Plug-ins for Photoshop and Digital
Photo Professional enable 16-bit image processing to dramatically improve gradations
and image quality. Digital Photo FrontAccess is a Canon developed utility to
import images from a camera, memory
card, USB, or other source and import
them into software applications such as
PosterArtist and Adobe Photoshop. The
system’s wide color gamut and durable
LUCIA inks reduce graininess, minimize
“bronzing” and produce realistic images
with richer, deeper tones that will last for
years to come.
FINE ART REPRODUCTIONS–GICLÉE
When creating exact reproductions, the
magePROGRAF printer’s high-resolution 2400
i
x 1200 dpi output and precise placement of
superfine 4pl droplets of ink mean that
museum-quality images can be printed with
absolute confidence. The 12-color ink set
provides an unprecedented color spectrum
to ensure reproductions are faithful to the
artist’s original.
PROOFING
With high-speed throughput, advanced
12-color imaging, and equipped with an
EFI Colorproof eXpress RIP, the iPF6200
printer is an efficient, accurate, and easy-touse proofing solution. The wide color gamut
enabled by the 12-color ink set means that
a greater range of colors can be reproduced.
The stability of Canon’s LUCIA pigmented
inks increase 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
the clear images, smooth transitions, and
solid fills required for professional proofing
applications.
POSTERS, DISPLAYS, AND MORE
Canon imagePROGRAF printers offer
an array of software solutions and print
technologies that can expand your range
of output options to the full spectrum of
professional graphic applications. Canon’s
template-driven PosterArtist Lite (iPF6200
and PC only) software helps users of all
levels to design, import images, edit, and
print posters, banners, signs, and more. A
wide range of media—including a variety of
papers, adhesive-backed materials, and
films—make it possible to create a diverse
range of large-format applications.
