Here at Falcon, it's not often that we take time to acknowledge the many accolades Canon regularly receives when it comes to its conventional printing devices but this month's award of the 'Outstanding Colour Inkjet Wide Format Production Photo Printer" at BLI's 'Summer Pick', where Canon also picked-up awards for its Canon uniFLOW document workflow solution, seemed like an opportune moment. The Canon imagePROGRAF iPF 8300S wide format printer impressed BLI earlier in the year with its high levels of productivity and exceptional print quality at widths of up to 44 inches and has been singled-out at the summer awards which recognise the best products and software reviewed by BLI over the previous six months.
Buyers Laboratory Inc has now been established for well over 45 years providing the reprographics and imaging industry with reliable intelligence about the latest products/solutions and news on industry developments. BLI's offering comprises fully comprehensive reports, including First Look Reports, Device Productivity Reports, Solutions Reports, Field and Laboratory Test Reports and Special Reports on subjects that are important to the industry. BLI also offers Original Equipment Manufactutrers (OEM's) private testing services and offers imaging companies with advisory services.
In December and June each year, BLI holds its 'Pick of the Year' Awards. The experienced team of editorial staff and technicians review the full range of device and software that have been assessed by BLI over the previous six months, deciding on 'Pick of the Year' winners within each product category, while the most impressive manufacturers over the previous year are awarded 'Line of the Year'. For special innovations and laudable advnaces within the industry, BLI hands-out the 'Outstanding Achievement' Award.
The Canon imagePROGRAF iPF 8300S 44-inch eight colour large format printer effectively extends Canon's offering into teh graphic arts, photo and production arenas, offering the perefct balance of high productivity levels and outstanding production quality. Canon's LUCIA EX pigment ink allows professionals to achieve the very highest standards in print performance, meaning the iPF8300S wide format printer can be used for colour and monochrome photo reproduction, industrial design applications and even high quality poster output. The iPF 8300S wide format printer model's eight colour system covers a reproducable colour gamut 20% beyond that of previous S-series wide format printers.
The actual pigment structure of Canon's LUCIA EX ink set achieves improved shadow detail, deeper black density and better overall scratch resistance.
