Setup was frustrating and I still haven't figured out wireless printing but the output is fantastic. I'm using it for fine art prints, and on quality paper the prints are amazing. Even on bond paper getting only 600 dpi the prints look fine. I would suggest buying a USB printer cable if you don't already have one and set the printer port to USB instead of COM or LPT1 etc. I think I'll have to call Canon to figure out the wireless connection because I can't find the printer's IP Address.

This printer produces bright, colorful images and prints very fast for a large format. I printed a 24" by 36" full-color poster to test out the speed and it was done in under a minute! One thing you do need to know is this printer is huge! The printer is also very quiet for such a large printer.

While I've only had this printer up and running for a few days, I'm already quite smitten. It is very easy and intuitive (so far) and I only wish I was a bit more thrilled with the print quality. I knew it was not essentially a fine-art photography printer, but was unwilling to go up to the next level, price-wise. I am primarily using it for photographs, and it has generally been at the "acceptable" level, rather than "inspiring". I think I'll figure out a way to surpass that, which I know will take some further familiarity. I haven't yet figured out how (if it is possible) to make a black and white image with just the black ink - so far all b+w has had a color cast. I really appreciate the relatively moderate cost of refills, and that there are only 5 (rather than 12 or more) cartridges to wrestle with. It seems quite fussy about getting large single-sheets to be accepted, but working on that.

We needed a printer in house for blueprints. I compared several HP models and Canon models. Canon stood out on (1) Speed; (2) the paper handling by the stand; (3) able to change ink cartridges mid print and not start over. Ultimately, we purchased the iPF670 rather than the iPF670e because of the cost of ink. The iPF670 uses larger cartridges (about 1.5x) and only runs more. The printer was easy to set-up and use and the print quality is tremendous. I would say the prints we get from this printer are more crisp and clear than those I was getting from taking my pdf files to Staples.

We needed an upgrade from our old HP designjet 111 but when I looked at the HP suggested replacements, they were being discontinued. So we looked at the Canon, its faster and ink cartridges are larger. I shared it out from our windows server2012. We have 5 people using it. easy setup. it is noticeably faster. Mostly prints .pdf of Autocad files. Everyone is pleased so far. Printer is large but we got the stand because of the need for containing the output. Roll is easy to load.

The printer is excellent, easy to use. My only concern is that set up was a bit challenging and required a conversation with the staff at Canon to resolve. It would be very simple if they asked the purchaser to set up using the online downloads in their directions. The paper directions are hard to follow and do not result in a successful set up.

Dye/Pigment Reactive Ink Set
The 5-Color ink set (cyan, magenta, yellow, black, matte black) found in the imagePROGRAF iPF670 printer is ideal for technical applications. This ink technology utilizes four highly colorfast dye inks for producing bold, expressive color, plus two channels of pigment matte black ink for printing precise lines, smooth curves and small text on technical and office documents. Included is a reformulated magenta ink that helps produce a wider color gamut in the red and orange spectrums, compared to previous models. Canon inks provide superb adhesion to media, scratch and marker resistance and help ensure minimal "bleeding" between colors and text. Even small text printed on colored backgrounds or on uncoated technical papers is crisp and legible on an imagePROGRAF printer.

The imagePROGRAF iPF670 printer has the ability to output an A1 (23.39" x 33.11") sized drawing in Draft mode in approximately 28 seconds! When you need to keep projects moving forward and meet deadlines, this kind of speed is critical. Powering these incredible print speeds is Canon's L-COA (Large Format Printer Common Architecture) print controller, driving the imagePROGRAF print engine to lay down ink with exceptional speed and precision. This high-speed processor enables the print system to process large volumes of data while optimizing output of complex high-color GIS images and architectural renderings for maximum readability and color accuracy.
