Professional photo quality for wide-format printing

The Bubble Jet i9100 brings 4800 x 1200 dpi photo printing technology to the A3+ market for the first time and sets a new standard in fast, high-resolution printing

The i9100 combines great colour reproduction quality with accuracy and speed, utilising Canon’s now standard advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology™ to give accurate dot placement, dot shape and dot density. The six-colour ink system uses the world’s lightest density inks, and when combined with 4800 x 1200* dpi dot resolution and a tiny 4pl drop size, the i9100 gives grain-free photographs with up to 49 colour shades per pixel for enhanced image depth.

The i9100 uses a high density, high-resolution 1200 dpi print head with 3072 nozzles – 10 times as many ink nozzles as its closest competitor. The i9100 is capable of printing a full A4 colour photo in about one minute, twice as fast as its closest competitor, and a full A3 photo on Canon’s Photo Paper Pro in less than two minutes.
The optional iProof PowerRIP 2000™ PostScript Raster Image Processor to the i9100 package provides a highly competitive, professional contract quality proofing solution. This allows graphic artists to achieve perfectly accurate colour proofs.

7Precautions on Storing Printed Images: The 25 years of lightfastness may not be achieved depending on storage conditions. The expressed number of years is the result of simulated tests conducted by Canon Inc. and is not guaranteed.
This number of years does not apply for paper fading or durability. After printing allow the ink to dry completely. Store your images in albums, clear plastic folders, or glass frames in order to avoid exposing them to the open air.
Never store printed images in locations subject to high temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight. Store them at normal room temperature.
(Do not use albums with self-adhesive pages to store your images since you will not be able to remove them later on.)
Tested on Photo Paper Pro (PR-101) under the following conditions; Temperature: 24°C, Humidity: 60%, Light source: White fluorescent light 70,000lux, Layer of air and 2mm thick glass on the sample, Presumed conditions: Assuming one day's illumination
In-house Evaluation criteria (Based on ISO)- Single colour/Composite colour: A colour change has occurred if the density is under 70% (OD: 1.0->0.7).
Process Black: The fading ratio between each colour is within 15%, and A colour change has occurred if the density is under 70% (OD: 1.0->0.7)
8USB operation can only be guaranteed on a PC with pre-installed Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows 2000 (This includes Windows ME, Windows XP and Windows 2000 upgraded from pre-installed Windows 98).
This product supports the majority of USB equipped PCs however, due to differences in USB implementation (on some PCs) full compatibility cannot be guaranteed.
