User manual CANON EOS REBEL X PHOTO PRINTERS FOR PROFESSIONALS

[. . . ] The Canon Total Imaging Solution: the Professional's Choice. These professional photographers depend on Canon for their total imaging solution from composition through final prints. Canon innovation speaks directly to their needs and desires for better tools. Canon's leadership in imaging technologies and uncompromising quality standards have delivered a wide range of tools that include the EOS System of cameras, lenses and a host of accessories. Today, the Canon system also addresses the photo printing needs of today's digital imaging professionals. [. . . ] Print quality and longevity is also critical in today's workflow. The Pro9500's pigment-based LUCIA inks assure excellent archival characteristics and perform exceedingly well with a wide variety of media types. Along with the ability to reproduce the superb image quality I get with my EOS-1Ds Mark II, I'm impressed by the speed of printing, which helps boost productivity. -- Eddie Tapp Superior Print Longevity Excellent Archival Characteristics Canon LUCIA pigment ink technology ensures long-lasting prints that are highly resistant to fading. Photos printed on the PIXMA Pro9500 maintain their vibrancy over time. The Pro9500's pigment ink set also exhibits excellent color stability with virtually no short- or long-term color drift--an important consideration in color-managed workflows. Wider Color Gamut The Pro9500's pigment-based 10-ink system includes dedicated Red and Green inks, which enables the reproduction of a much wider range of colors with superior tonal gradation. In particular, when compared to conventional inkjet printers limited to CMY inks, color reproduction is much improved in the yellow-to-orange, red, and, green color ranges. Thus, whereas typical inkjet printers are limited to a color gamut more closely associated with the sRGB space, the Pro9500 enables photographers to work in the wider Adobe RGB space from capture to output. ©2007 Eddie Tapp All Rights Reserved. 45 "Here, finally, is a printer that fits my demanding workflow without compromising image quality. " The speed and reliability of my Canon PIXMA Pro9000 allow me to print dozens of images for portfolios in hours instead of days, which means I can print custom books for clients on demand. Even though the photographs I shoot with my EOS-1D Mark III have a high degree of saturation and contrast, I depend on details in the highlights and shadows to make my images stand out. Most printers fail when it comes to reproducing the extremes and the details, but not the Pro9000. A fast, efficient printer that delivers the wide gamut and tonal precision I need to convey the punch and subtlety of my photographs. . . -- Vincent Laforet Engineered for Efficiency and Dependability FINE Print Head Technology The PIXMA Pro9000 features Canon's exclusive FINE (Fullphotolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) print head technology, which delivers high-resolution at high output speeds. This high-density, high-precision print head releases highly uniform microfine droplets as small as 2 picoliters, delivering a maximum resolution of 4800 x 2400 dpi. The ability to accurately deposit thousands of ink droplets each second is unrivaled and results in prints with sharper detail and less grain. Versatile Dual Paper Paths Dual paper paths accommodate a wide range of media types. In addition to the standard top-loading feeder, the PIXMA Pro9000 has a manual front-loading feeder that provides a straight paper path. This enables the use of large, non-standard paper sizes as well as thicker fine art and specialty media (up to 1. 2mm). ©2007 Vincent Laforet All Rights Reserved. 49 "My camera and printer must help me achieve the WOW factor: Wonderful, Original Work. Thanks, Canon. " My job is to make fresh, exciting images. The research and technology behind the Canon name may be invisible to those viewing my work, but I rely on them every day to realize my vision. And as my work is about color, my choices must make the big difference-- brilliant colors, super sharpness, and detail that make my images jump off the page. -- Michel Tcherevkoff Designed for Imaging Professionals 8-Color Dye-Based Wide Gamut Ink Set Canon's advanced 8-color dye-based ink system features Red and Green inks in addition to Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Photo Cyan, Photo Magenta and Photo Black. This unconventional ink set reproduces a much wider color gamut than any previous dye-based inkjet printer, delivering a color space that rivals positive film. [. . . ] Unique to Canon CMOS sensors is a novel on-chip noise reduction system that ensures exceptionally clean, noise-free images. Canon semiconductor engineers the capture and recording stages of digital photography, the Canon DIGIC Image Processor employs proprietary signal-processing algorithms to dramatically enhance image quality and deliver natural renditions of bright, highsaturation subjects, and ensure more precise auto white balance. Top EOS Digital SLR models use either DIGIC 4 or DIGIC III Image Processors to provide even greater dataprocessing capability, handling the huge they are transferred to the image processor. Compared to CCD sensors, the Canon CMOS sensor can read out more data simultaneously at high speed using multiple channels, which dramatically improves camera responsiveness. [. . . ]
