Electrophotographic Technology Meets Needs for Smaller, Slimmer Printers

Canon has rapidly responded to user needs from a variety of angles in the development of its laser printers. To meet the demands of the times, Canon continues to develop products while striving not only to improve such basic performance aspects as image quality, speed, and ease of use, but also providing network compatibility, extensibility, and eco-friendly performance.

Overview of Laser Printers

Through the electrophotographic printing process, laser beams scan the surface of photosensitive drums to form a latent image. Toner is then affixed to non-charged areas of the drums to develop the latent image, and finally transferred to paper for printing.

LARGE FORMAT INKJET PRINTERS

Enabling the High-Speed Production of High-Definition Extra-Large Posters and Maps

The technology found in Canon inkjet printers is changing the large-format printing world. FINE print head technology has led to the development of wide print heads that provide high-definition, high-speed printing on large-scale media. Large-format inkjet printing offers a wide range of applications, including artwork to adorn walls, architectural CAD, and cultural projects.

Overview of Large-Format Inkjet Printers

Using the same principle as a conventional inkjet printer, a heater causes bubbles to form in the ink, ejecting microscopic ink droplets to print on large-format media.
