“We are seeing the need for more advanced solutions in the entry-level, large-format inkjet market, and, in response to meet customer need, Canon is proud to deliver the imagePROGRAF TA-20 MFP L24ei for entry-level professionals,” said Shinichi Yoshida, executive vice president and general manager, Canon USA. “Small businesses require solutions that can promote productivity and expand their business growth, and this printer can help them do that and more.”
Using SingleSensor Technology, the imagePROGRAF TA-20 MFP L24ei scanner includes integrated control panels that enable customers to easily operate the scanner. The scanner technology helps to provide “consistent, better colour accuracy with more detail in shadows and highlights than a staggered contact image sensor (CIS) scanner,” Canon says. The system can also scan single documents into a multi-page PDF.
“As 44 percent of Americans say they hang up posters to personalize their space, according to the Canon/Ipsos Print for Action survey, Canon implements two key features, LUCIA TD Pigment Ink and PosterArtist Lite, standard into this printer to provide customers with the opportunity to produce and design high-quality images, posters, and office documents. PosterArtist Lite allows customers to easily design and print posters, while LUCIA TD Pigment Ink is able to bring these designs to life through its ability to print on a wide variety of media including water-resistant media for short-term outdoor signage.”
The imagePROGRAF TA-20 MFP L24ei also features the ability to print a 24″ x 36″ poster in as fast as 27 seconds on plain paper using Fast (Q5) mode. Its air-feeding system helps the paper to remain level throughout the printing process in order to reduce wrinkles and paper jams.
The new imagePROGRAF TA-20 model is now available in the US. No word at this stage on local availability.
