Great Printer

This is a good printer for occasional large format printing. I run a print shop and people want posters and signage. This works great.

CONTRACTORS CHRISTMAS PRESENT

THIS 36" PLOTTER IS JUST WHAT THE CONTRACTOR NEEDS FOR PLAN-SETS. WE CAN PRINT 36 X 48 AND 18 X 24" PLANS FOR JOBS. THE COST OF THE PLOTTER WAS LESS THAN THE COST TO DRIVE TO THE LOCAL PRINTING SHOP FOR A YEAR! WE WILL SAVE AN AVERAGE OF $4,000 ON PLANS PRINTING EVERY YEAR. CANON HAS THE CHEAPEST INK COSTS FOR PLOTTERS AND WE CAN PRINT ON 20LB BOND PAPER TO MAKE THE PLANS MORE DURABLE.

I love that I am able to print a lot bigger now. Only complaint is learning the software.....it is not fun. It prints very quickly and in good quality.

Easy setup, beautiful print for structural blueprints.

Bring your printing in house with the imagePROGRAF TA-30 large format printer. With uncompromising quality from the #3 patent holder in the U.S., this multipurpose 36" printer, offers a cost-efficient, easy-to-use solution built to stimulate workflow and productivity for small businesses and first-time large format print users. The TA Series ships with free poster/marketing creation software and a Print Plug-in for Microsoft Office - the software tools you need to bring your business to the next level.

Features

Print More Out of the Box
The TA Series ship with 164% more ink than the comparable HP and 157% more ink than the comparable Epson currently offer. 330ml ink in total.

Low Cost of Operation
Economy Print Mode (Fast (Q5)) allows for up to 40% less ink to be used during printing than standard mode Q3 - helping to lower your operation costs.

Unparalleled Speed
Print 113 24 x 36 posters per hour. That's 43 more posters than the HP T130 can print!

Print Outdoor Posters
Unlike the HP DesignJet printers, the TA Series use pigment ink to produce weather-resistant posters.

The Perfect Print
With Canon's advanced Air Feeding System, paper is kept flat during printing - helping to make consistent prints every time!

Security Feature
The TA Series large-format printers come equipped with several security features designed to help prevent leaks of confidential information:

• 802.1x: Helps ensure information is secure when passing over a network by providing authentication to devices attempting to connect to the network
• SSL/TLS: Allows sensitive information being sent via an internet connection to be sent securely for data being passed between two systems
• IPSec: Authenticates and encrypts data passed over IP networks

Minimize Disruption in the Workplace
The TA is the quietest printer in this market.

More Paper. More Printing
The TA has the ability to utilize long rolls (5.9" in diameter) and a wide variety of media.

Compact Design
The TA-30's small footprint is perfect for any office or desktop.

Wi-Fi Printing
Print mobile from almost anywhere in the office or jobsite.

Nonstop Printing
The Sub-Ink Tank System lets you change empty cartridges while the printer continues to print allowing you to use virtually all of the available ink in the tank before having to replace it.

Virtually No Printing Limits
Print borderless on all media sizes - the competition can't do this!
