Canon imagePROGRAF iPF720
The imagePROGRAF iPF720 from Canon is a 36" large-format printer designed to meet the needs of medium & large groups producing technical documents, including but not limited to Computer-Aided Design (CAD), GIS (Geographic Information Systems), and AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) work. It features a reactive ink system consisting of four highly colorfast dye inks (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) plus two channels of pigment-based matte-black ink. Reactive ink technology minimizes bleeding between colors so small text printed on colored backgrounds is crisp and legible. The four-color dye ink system also enhances color quality on a variety of substrates.
A built-in 80GB hard drive enhances the speed and performance of this unit. It includes PosterArtist Lite, a software package that aids in the workflow & creation of large-format prints. The printer is compatible with both Windows and Mac platforms. Other features includes integration with your scan workflow on imageRUNNER devices, support for HP-GL/2 and HP-RTL page description languages, and Digital Photo Front-Access software for easy photo printing from digital cameras.
This printer is qualified as an "Energy Star" product, a designation made in partnership with the EPA for products that promote energy efficiency. Products with this designation use half as much electricity as standard equipment and without any increase in their purchase price, thereby lowering your total cost of ownership over the equipment's useful life.
