Automated Black Ink Cartridge Switching The ink set includes both black and matte black cartridges to allow printing on photo paper and matte paper respectively without switching cartridges or wasting of ink every time. Other printers require the user to perform an inconvenient and wasteful manual operation to flush unused ink and switch cartridges. However, with the Canon imagePROGRAF Printers, both black ink cartridges are loaded and live at all times, so switching over is performed efficiently with a simple push of a button. Vast Output Media Selection The imagePROGRAF Printers support a wide range of paper and specialty output media, such as resin coated photo paper, canvas and fine art more than 35 different types of compatible paper, with additional paper and media types in the works. Moreover, the supplied Media Configuration Tool enables the user to easily update the driver, using a periodically published database, to accommodate new Canon media as they become available. * iPF6200, iPF6100 and iPF5100 handles: 0.08 to 1.5 millimeters Automatic Head Clog Detection Canon's sophisticated nozzle clog detection system automatically senses non-firing nozzles and executes a print head cleaning cycle as required. Should a clogged nozzle fail to recover after cleaning, the system automatically compensates by substituting other functioning nozzles. This minimizes print-head-related output failures, reduces paper waste and improves print head durability, saving photographers both time and money.

With the introduction of the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II and Pro9000 Mark II, Canon has entered the realm of fine art printing while remaining true to the Canon quality and speed photographers everywhere know and trust. FINE Print Head Technology Total 6,144 nozzles Canon's high-preci- sion FINE (Full-photo- lithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) FINE 2 pl 2 pl (conceptual diagram) PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II print heads each have thousands of nozzles designed to release microscopic ink droplets as small as 2-picoliters (PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II only) in a single pass, resulting in fast, high-resolution printing. Capable of plotting thousands of ink droplets each second, the high-density nozzle pitch produces sharper detail and less grain. Canon's print heads are engineered using a photo-lithographic process that produces incredibly high-precision output and equally incredible prints. 10-Color Pigment Ink System Featuring the same LUCIA pigment ink found in the imagePROGRAF printers, the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II's 10-color pigment ink set produces professional quality, archival prints. The Gray, Black and Matte Black ink produce monochrome photographs of superb quality on fine art and glossy paper. Gray ink reduces grain, banding and metamerism and virtually eliminates color shifts. Unlike black ink that increases contrast, Matte Black ink increases black density on fine art paper while maintaining detail in shadows. With 10 individual ink tanks, users can replace a single color, reducing waste and saving money. Since the Pro9500 Mark II's ink is less sensitive to light and environmental factors, prints have incredibly smooth gradations and are archival. The ChromaLife100 System The PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II is outfitted with an 8-color dye-based ink system. With the addition of Red and Green inks, red saturation is increased by approximately 60% and green saturation is increased by approximately 30%. The PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II uses ChromaLife100 ChromaLife100 Ink System ink for improved image longevity. Photos have a 100-year print life when kept in albums, and when these inks are combined with Canon's genuine photo media, prints will withstand 30year light fastness and 10-year gas fastness*. This advantage is achieved without compromising print quality or speed. Advanced Paper Handling The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II/9000 Mark II features two paper paths: a standard top loader and a manual front loader for increased versatility and convenience. The front loader can accept thick, fine art media, creating a straight paper path that prevents the media from bending while printing. Improved Camera to Printer Connectivity When shooting with selected EOS digital SLR cameras and printing with the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II/ Pro9000 Mark II, photographers can take advantage of improved advanced camera direct capabilities. Photographers can use print effects to finely tune images and can arrange images in a variety of useful layouts-all on their cameras. Ultimately, this level of connectivity enables photographers to print directly from their cameras with the exact color tones and saturation they specify. Easy-PhotoPrint Pro Software Canon's Easy-PhotoPrint Pro (EPP Pro) software plug-in for Digital Photo Professional (Ver. 2.1 or higher), Adobe® Photoshop® CS/CS2/CS3/CS4 Pattern Print and Adobe® Photoshop® Elements® 6 provides an easier photo printing experience. EPP Pro has layout options such as pattern prints, contact prints and prints with shooting information. It also allows for color adjustments, including ICC Profile, Linear Tone, Photo Color, monotone printing and grayscale printing, and with advanced color management, all settings can be saved. The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II and Pro9000 Mark II printers incorporate the Ambient Light Correction functionality that helps to ensure the quality of a print image viewed in a working environment as well as in a viewing environment where the image is exhibited. PictBridge Shoot digital, print direct. It's a fast and easy way to print pictures on the spot without a computer. Just connect any PictBridge-compatible printer to a digital camera and print. 1. Connect - Connect your EOS digital camera directly to a PictBridge-compatible photo printer. 2. Select - Choose the image, print size and style from the camera's LCD menu screen. 3. Print - Press the print function from the menu and you'll have photo lab-quality prints in minutes.
