Made with Canon's sophisticated technology for high speed output and more efficient printheads, the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6100 large format printer is an intuitive device designed for graphic artists and professional photographers. The Canon iPF6100 inkjet printer promises more vibrant and vivid output with its 12-ink cartridge system and support for different kinds of media, but it is criticised for its weight, bulky frame, and expensive price.
Design
Measuring 39.1 inches tall, 35.2 inches deep, and 46.3 inches long, the iPF6100 large format A1 printer is distinctive for its wide-format frame, weight, and sleek and stylish appearance suitable for a professional environment. The device runs on 384MB of RAM and prints on a maximum 24-inch wide paper. Canon used its signature full lithography inkjet nozzle engineering technology in the ImagePROGRAF iPF-6100 printer. The intuitive control panel features a built-in status display screen. The printer mainly relies on wired connectivity, between Ethernet and USB.
Advantages
Output looks striking and vivid because of a wider colour gamut integrated into the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6100. The prints last longer, too, because of Canon's Lucia inks. The device can run over a network or be connected to a single PC with Firewire for better speed. The Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6100 operates quietly, too, and it is fairly compact for a small workplace. The printer is also praised for its comprehensive bundled software.
Disadvantages
The high initial cost is a turn-off for potential buyers of the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6100 wide-format printer. To make matters worse, the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6100 colour inkjet printer is quite expensive to operate. The Canon iPF6100 lacks Wi-Fi and direct print capabilities, which could have made it more useful. The Canon iPF6100's built-in memory cannot be expanded either.
