Canon launches imagePROGRAF iPF510

In response to customer demand, the new printer now supports HP-GL/2 and HP-RTL, which will appeal to the CAD (Computer Aided Design) and GIS (Geographic Information System) markets. Additionally, the imagePROGRAF iPF510 is now compatible with Microsoft Windows 7 Operating System (32 Bit and 64 Bit) and Apple Macintosh OSX Operating System.

With simple-to-use software, the imagePROGRAF iPF510 enables the quick in-house production of large format prints, such as point-of-sale displays, posters and company notices, as well as office documents, maps and CAD applications. Featuring a Reactive ink system, the printer uses four highly colourfast dye inks – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black – plus two channels of pigment-based Matte Black – to deliver vibrant full-bleed posters, clear text documents and crisp technical drawings.

PosterArtist Lite software, which makes it easy for any user to create a huge variety of posters in just a few simple steps, comes bundled with the imagePROGRAF iPF510. The new version of the full PosterArtist package – PosterArtist V2.20 – is available separately. This supports Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 (32 Bit and 64 Bit), features new artwork and can be used with other Canon printers.

The imagePROGRAF iPF510 is now available in the UK and Ireland.
