 |
| The iP8500
incorporates Canon’s latest fully patented innovation,
Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE)
technology print heads. FINE print heads are
manufactured using technology adapted from Canon’s expertise in
manufacturing sub-micron integrated circuits. FINE print heads
feature ink nozzles with tolerances many times finer than a
human hair. These high-density nozzles eject millions of minute
ink droplets each second with a microscopic precision simply not
possible with traditional print heads, which are assembled from
multiple parts. |
 |
 |
| Bringing
colours to vivid, vibrant life – the PIXMA iP8500 utilises
Canon’s ingenious ChromaPLUS 8-colour ink system, which
increases red-region saturation by approximately 60% and
green-region saturation by some 30%. This enables the iP8500 to
print previously unobtainable shades of hue. Additionally,
8-colour printing accurately reproduces naturally subtle colour
gradations across all tones and colour densities; so accurate
that the iP8500 matches the colour characteristics of positive
film. Photos are so vibrant, they possess a luminescence that
seems 3-dimensional. |
 |
 |
| The iP8500
features Canon’s Individual Ink Tank system, so you only need
replace the colour that has run out so that not a drop is
wasted. And the built-in ink detection system only permits a
print job to begin if there is sufficient ink in all tanks to
finish the job. |
 |
 |
| The iP8500
features a FINE print head that ejects ultra-fine 2 picolitre
ink droplets in all print modes. Thanks to Canon’s advanced
dot-control technology, these microscopic droplets are placed
with exceptional precision to achieve a brilliant 4800 x 2400
dpi resolution. The results are breathtaking: a naturally smooth
tonality without graininess across the entire image. |
 |
 |
| The choice of
professionals who demand the most faithful colour reproduction –
the Adobe RGB colour space is wider than sRGB and offers a more
comprehensive palate. Commercial printers and photographers
can’t be wrong and home and office users also benefit, as the
iP8500 supports this standard. |
 |
 |
| The FINE print
head on the iP8500 packs in the most nozzles – all 6,144 of
them! The iP8500 can print a 4” x 6” borderless photo in just 21
seconds. Combined with its advanced paper handling mechanism,
the iP8500 achieves printing speeds of up to 15 ppm for
monochrome text documents, and 14 ppm for colour documents.
|
 |
 |
| The PIXMA
iP8500 supports PictBridge and Bubble Jet Direct camera direct
printing for ultimate convenience. Connect directly to any
PictBridge or Bubble Jet Direct compatible digital camera or
video camcorder for professional quality printouts without the
computer. |
 |
 |
| Fall in love
with the black and silver, designer form factor of the PIXMA
iP8500. Remarkably graceful, it accentuates any table or
desktop. And because of its unique PIXMA design, it can sit
flush against a wall, further increasing placement options.
|
 |
 |
| The
PIXMA iP8500 has an in-built Paper Feed Cassette in addition to
the conventional Auto Sheet Feeder. A Paper Feed Switch allows
you to shift easily from one feeder to another. Check out these
advantages: |
 |
|
•
|
Paper Feed Switch allows you to shift seamlessly and
conveniently between Auto Sheet Feeder and Paper Feed Cassette.
|
|
 |
|
•
|
Load plain
paper and photo paper in separate feeders to save the hassle of
switching between different types of paper in one tray.
|
|
 |
|
•
|
Load up to 300
sheets of paper* to handle high-volume printing jobs with
amazing ease and superb efficiency. |
 |
| |
*150 sheets
each in Auto Sheet Feeder and Front Feeder respectively. |
 |
 |
| The Auto Duplex
Printing function allows you to easily create double sided,
professional looking documents and great looking photo albums.
This function allows the iP8500 to print on both sides of the
same sheet without requiring you to manually turn the paper
over. |
 |
 |
| Printing
directly onto a DVD or CD eliminates the need for labels. The
built-in CD sized tray guide makes printing easier than ever.
|
 |
 |

powerful yet intuitive Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 software bundled with
the iP8500 lets you take full advantage of the printer's
