This new printer from Canon seems to be the next big hit! This is a 12 ink, pigment-based, 17″ carriage photographic printer capable of printing in 16 bit mode. Not bad!

The iPF5000 is Canon’s answer to the Epson 4800. It is obviously built with the professional photographer / print maker in mind - people who naturally want long lasting photo and art prints.

Tho they claim the twelve 130ml cartridges in the printer would be able to produce some 2,500 A3 sized prints, the same printer with a CIS (continuous ink system) would be the ULTIMATE sh*t!!

The Prograf iPF5000 weighs about 93lbs (a monster) and is 38.75″ wide, 11.5″ tall, and 28″ deep. If you plan on using roll, leave at least two foot of space behind the printer ah!!

Pretty nice, and not too badly priced (around $1,995) … If you’re still sketchy on the whole “print at home” thing, then keep on sending out your print work!

For some reason, my i9900 seems outdated
