FIVE-COLOR DYE/PIGMENT REACTIVE INK
TECHNOLOGY
Canon’s Reactive Ink technology utilizes four
highly colorfast dye inks—Cyan, Magenta,
Yellow, and Black—plus two channels of
pigment-based Matte Black. The inks are
specially formulated to improve both durabil-
ity and clarity of the image. The Matte Black
ink is chemically engineered to react with the
Cyan ink to prevent “bleeding” at the border
between color and black output. This produces
clearer text and sharper lines—especially
when printing fine lines and small text fonts on
colored backgrounds. The ink’s chemistry also
improves adhesion to the media so images are
more durable than when printed with conven-
tional inks.
TWO MATTE BLACK INK CHANNELS
Though these printers utilize five colors of ink,
Canon has dedicated a sixth ink channel to
Matte Black ink. This increases the rate at which
most text and line drawings can be output.
LOW TOTAL COST OF OPERATION

printers are built for
low-cost operation. The Economy Print Mode
significantly reduces ink consumption while the
long-life print-heads deliver maximum reliability
to help keep maintenance costs down.
