Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III Photo Printers for Professionals - Page 15

"I depend on the PIXMA Pro9500 to reproduce every nuance and convey the mood and emotion of my images." ©2007 Robert Farber All Rights Reserved. The images I produce with my EOS 5D are mono- chromatic and subtle, and that makes them a challenge for any reproduction process. I had been disappointed by inkjet printers and relied almost exclusively on traditional photographic printing. I wondered whether the promise of the 'digital darkroom' would ever come true for me. The Canon PIXMA Pro9500 was the answer I had been waiting for. With its unique LUCIA ink set, the Pro9500 reproduces tonal gradations I thought I'd never see in inkjet prints. The prints I make with the Pro9500 are truly 'gallery grade'-not only because of their image quality but also because they won't fade with time. - Robert Farber Superior Grayscale Reproduction Fine Tonal Gradations The PIXMA Pro9500 features a 10-color pigment ink system based on the LUCIA set developed for Canon imagePROGRAF professional printers. In addition to traditional Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Photo Black inks, the PIXMA Pro9500 ink set includes Photo Cyan, Photo Magenta, Red, Green, Matte Black, and Gray. The availability of Gray ink in addition to Black (whether Photo Black or Matte Black) results in far superior grayscale reproduction. Black-and-white images are rendered with smooth, natural gradations, excellent tonal detail, and reduced graininess. Perfect for Fine Art Prints The PIXMA Pro9500 printer supports a wide range of output media, including fine art papers. Matte Black ink produces deep blacks with matte media. Photo Black ink is optimized for high-gloss surfaces. Photo and Matte Black inks are loaded at all times, and automatic switching between the two eliminates wasted ink, saves time, and takes the guesswork out of choosing the right black ink for the selected paper. 41
