MELVILLE, N.Y., Aug. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Developed to
benefit entry-level print customers, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, is excited to announce the new imagePROGRAF large-format
5-Color 24-inch TA-20 and 36-inch TA-30 printers. The TA Series
offers end users Canon's high-quality software and overall brand
value in a cost-efficient, easy-to-use solution built to help
stimulate workflow and productivity for small businesses and
first-time large-format print users.
The multi-purpose imagePROGRAF TA Series is great for posters,
technical documents, and designs. These new devices provide users
the ability to print on water resistant media for outdoor signage
by utilizing Canon's high yield TD pigment ink. Unlike printers
that use dye ink, the TA Series uses pigment ink that can produce
posters that can be used for up to 6 months outdoors1—
no lamination needed when using Canon's water resistant media! With
the ability to print borderless on all paper sizes, these models
help eliminate the need for manual cutting. With
wireless2 capabilities, users can print from anywhere in
the office.
The TA printers also include Canon's free poster creation
software, PosterArtist Lite, allowing customers to easily design
and print professional posters. These devices also come standard
with a layout software enabling users to easily nest images
minimizing paper waste and can print directly from Microsoft
Office3 with ease.
As seen through its fast print speeds and precise ink placement,
the TA Series incorporates features designed to stand out in the
current market. With the ability to print a 24x36 inch document or
poster in as fast as 27 seconds, on plain paper using Fast (Q5)
mode4, Canon's technology gets the job done. The series'
air-feeding system offers end users high quality, consistent
printing which is designed to help increase productivity by helping
the paper to remain straight to reduce wrinkles and paper jams.
"In order to evolve in the competitive large-format inkjet
market, it is important for companies to develop productive,
user-friendly solutions intended to meet customer and market
demands," said Shinichi Yoshida
executive vice president and general manager, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "With the new TA Series,
users now have access to a printer complete with a full set of ink
and software suite for a streamlined customer experience that is
ready right out of the box."
The TA printers ship standard with a total of 330 ml ink, 164%
more ink than the comparable HP5 device, and 157% more
ink than the comparable Epson6 device currently
offered.
Designed for small businesses and home offices, the TA-20 and
TA-30 devices are compact, quiet printers created to fit into small
office spaces and cause less disruption in the workplace. To
benefit overall user experience, these models feature a
cost-efficient economy print mode, which allows for 40% less ink
usage than standard mode4. Additionally, Canon provides
an on-the-fly ink tank technology that gives users the ability to
replace ink during printing, helping to reduce the amount of media
and ink wasted.
For added ease of use, features include instructional videos to
help entry-level users get the greatest knowledgeable value from
their device. Users are able to access these informational videos
by scanning the QR code displayed on the printer's operation panel
on their smart phone.
