THE TX-SERIES CORE TECHNOLOGIES
The TX series is an embodiment of print technology of the highest order. Employing high-precision mechanical platform and high-speed processing engine, together with the latest FINE print head and new LUCIA TD ink, the TX series deliver stunning prints of the finest details and excellent colour expression in breaking speed.

HIGH PRECISION MECHANICAL PLATFORM
The newly engineered unibody structure provides a strong platform for stable print head scanning, resulting in precise droplet placement. The perfect combination of speed and high-quality printing is achieved with this new design.
HIGH SPEED IMAGE PROCESSING ENGINE
The L-COA PRO processing chips forms a high-precision control engine that performs the processing of massive image data, generates the printing data, and controls the optimal ink layout that produces high-resolution prints, delivering supreme print quality at high speed.
PRINTING TECHNOLOGY
The TX series Print Technology uses new LUCIA TD pigment ink which produces excellent quality in fine lines reproduction and sharp text in drawings on both coated and uncoated paper.
The all-pigment LUCIA TD ink realizes high density of black and minimizes bleeding by using two types of black ink simultaneously.
The new LUCIA TD ink system gives vibrant colors in poster printing, has excellent color fastness to minimize color fading and even has great outdoor weather resistance with water resistant media.
TX series employs a newly developed FINE print head, PF-06, which is a 1.07 inch, 6-color channels with 15,360 nozzles. This newly developed printhead gives excellent quality through improved uniformity of ink density and colors. Fast, vibrant poster printing is possible even on inkjet plain paper.

AUTOMATIC MEDIA ROLL LOADING
A breakthrough in Canon technology
where media can simply “be placed”
on the roll holder and media will
automatically be loaded into the machine.
In Canon, we call it the “oku-dake”
(put only) technology whereby this
automatic media roll loading will save
you time and make it error and fuss free.

DUAL ROLL PRINTING
In the TX series, high volume printing
can now be achieved by loading up to 2
(TWO) 200m – length of plain paper. It
also allows for switching between media
for various printing applications either
in different media types or sizes to have
seamless and efficient printing.
WIRELESS PRINTING
Wireless networking in office
environments is easy and trouble-free,
which is convenient when connecting
from multiple computers. With no need for
a wired connection, users enjoy greater
freedom in installation,
with fewer restrictions.
HOT SWAPPING OF INKS
Even if the ink tanks run out of ink,
the printers keep some ink in
reserve sub-ink tanks, which is used
automatically as needed to enable ink
tank replacement during printing. Not
only does this prevent downtime in
continuous printing, it makes it easy to
use all ink in the tanks, which can help
cut costs.
SOFTWARE SOLUTION
SECURITY
The TX series complies with the Advanced Encryption Standard, 256-bit, as was established by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology, or NIST.

The self-encrypting hard disk automatically encrypts and decrypts image data as it is saved or printed and does not add to the processing load of print jobs.

Encrypting all data on the disk minimizes the risk of leaks in the case of theft. In this way, strict print data confidentiality is maintained, which gives users peace of mind in printer management.

In summary, the TX series meets security requirements in each area of secure communication, secure storage, secure interfaces, and secure management.
QUICK UTILITY TOOLBOX
Quick Utility Toolbox is home to all Canon imagePROGRAF TX Series printer software and tools.
ACCOUNTING MANAGER
In today’s printing environment,
it is more important than ever to understand
how much each print job is costing your
business. Compatible with both Mac and
Microsoft platforms, Accounting Manager
serves as a powerful feature used for
accurately managing your print costs. With
Accounting Manager,
you can track how much ink and paper
is being consumed on printing with up
to 50 printers.
DEVICE MANAGEMENT CONSOLE
The Device Management Console
software, is ideal for fleet management.
This software lets you monitor the printer
status of up to 50 printers from any location
in the world, be notified by email when an
error occurred, or check the amount of ink
left in the printers without ever having
to leave the comfort of your desk.
MEDIA CONFIGURATION TOOL
Recognising the expanding array of
media options for large format printers and
to further improve the versatility of these
new imagePROGRAF models, Canon has
developed a Media Configuration Tool,
which allows customers to not only utilise
Canon-branded media, but providing
them the ability to make adjustments to
printer settings to enhance the precision
and quality of output achieved with
custom media.

DIRECT PRINT & SHARE
This software enables to batch print multiple files of different types such as PDF, JPEG, TIFF and HP-GL/2, without starting up the dedicated applications. In addition, the shortcut printing function can be used to perform printing according to preregistered print settings such as outputting printer, print quality, paper type and paper size, simply by dragging & dropping the files to be printed to the shortcut folder.
Saved files can also be uploaded to cloud storage and shared among remote locations or across multiple sites.
