Achieve sharp reproduction of your CAD, GIS, blueprint and technical drawings. Precise control of the ink landing position when printing in both directions reduces line feathering and colour bleeding, enabling astounding thin line accuracy as well as sharper text and shapes.
The imagePROGRAF TM, TX, and TZ Series printers feature a 'hot swap ink system' with a sub-ink tank, allowing you to replace ink cartridges without interrupting your print jobs. This reduces downtime and helps maintain productivity, ensuring smoother, more efficient printing operations.
The imagePROGRAF TX, and TZ printers boast smart roll paper set. The printer automatically and quickly feeds paper, determines paper type, and estimates the remaining amount, saving you time and effort.
Create vibrant posters even with plain inkjet paper, and vivid posters on coated paper. The LUCIA TD ink set - including the magenta and matte black pigment inks – expand the colour reproduction range of our technical printers and increase line precision of CAD drawings. Resistant to mild water exposure, LUCIA TD inks enable easy handling of drawings on site. Ink tanks come in 3 sizes¹ up to 700ml and can be changed mid-operation, allowing professionals to reduce cost per print and printer down time.
The optional Lm² series scanner offers an intuitive touch panel with easy-to-identify picture icons, and features advanced single-sensor imaging technology. Our range of Z Series scanners provide high-speed, efficient copying and digitising of CAD drawings, with scan-to-multipage PDF/TIFF as a standard feature. A 15.6” touch screen monitor lets you preview scanned images, while SmartWorks scanning software offers image editing tools such as skew correction, brightness adjustment, and cropping for enhanced flexibility.
Direct Print Plus is a drag and drop job submission tool to achieve efficient output workflows. Print PDF documents and drawings, JPEG and TIFF images, and drawings without opening the corresponding applications. Direct Print Plus provides a preview of the image prior to printing and can also deliver pre-print error warnings.
A technical printer is a specialised printing device designed for producing oversized documents, graphics, and technical drawings such as CAD and GIS for architect, engineering and construction. They differentiate themselves from other Large Format Printer by their excellent fine line accuracy.
When selecting a large format printer for CAD drawings, consider the following key factors: 1. Print Volume: Align the printer’s monthly duty cycle with your expected output: • TZ series: 300-500m² • TX series: 100-300m² • TM series: 100m² • TC series: 20m² 2. Size and Versatility: Maximum width capacity: Choose based on your largest typical drawing size, with common options being 24" (A1), 36" (A0), and 44". Multiple roll capacity: For high-volume environments, dual rolls reduce the need for frequent media changes. • TZ series: Standard dual rolls • TX series: Optional dual rolls • TM/TC series: Single roll only 3. Scanning Capability: Check if the printer allows you to add an optional scanner for digitising your work.
Common output sizes for plans, maps and blueprints are A1 and A0. Canon has a wide range of both 24” (A1) and 36” (A0) technical models architects can choose from in the imagePROGRAF TM, TX and TZ Series.
Yes, CAD and technical large format printers do use specialised inks optimised for technical drawings and documents. The exclusive to Canon LUCIA TD pigment ink set helps improve fine line accuracy, colour vibrancy and also contribute to producing more durable prints by being water resistant.
Yes. Primarily designed for CAD/technical documents, printers in the Canon technical range can produce vivid and long-lasting posters thanks to their 4 or 5-colour LUCIA TD ink set.
Yes, Canon does offer large format printer models with integrated scanning functionality, though not all models include this feature. Lm scanners are entry level, while the Z scanners are more advanced.
Yes. Canon technical large format printers are easy to operate. The imagePROGRAF TM, TX and TZ Series printers have many hardware and software features to help operators simplify the printing process, and minimise downtime: auto media loading and detection, ink hot swap, drag and drop print job submission.
All of Canon's large format printers, including those in the imagePROGRAF series, come with a standard 2-year manufacturer warranty that covers the printer and printhead. Additionally, Canon offers optional On-site Service and Support (OSS) packs that extend service coverage for up to five years for imagePROGRAF printers.
MyCanon Business allows you to manage your fleet of office printers. Specifically,it lets you book and track service requests, track usage, relocate devices, view and pay invoices, and order supplies, all from an easy-access online hub.
