Product Overview

The Canon imagePROGRAF iPF8400SE 44-inch large format printer is a six-color
graphic arts printer incorporating the Canon LUCIA EX pigment ink set. The 6-
color pigment ink set emphasizes the use of a red ink tank, which enhances the
printer's color gamut, while at the same time improving scratch resistance. The
printer bundle includes a color profile which is designed specifically for poster
creation, and maximizes the use of the LUCIA EX ink system's strengths in color
reproduction. The iPF8400SE printer also has an economy printing mode that
reduces ink consumption when compared to the standard printing mode. This
helps to reduce printing costs.
The printer supports ink tank sizes of 330ml and 700ml to enhance productivity,
and includes a Sub-ink tank system that keeps some ink in reserve to allow for ink
tanks to be changed without interrupting printing operations. Also included with the
iPF8400SE printer is an Accounting Manager tool that helps keep track of job
costs, a Print Plug-in for Microsoft Office, and Direct Print and Share software. For
enhanced versatility, the iPF8400SE printer has a Media Configuration Tool which
allows customers to utilize existing Canon-branded media, as well as non-Canon
branded media.
As an Energy Star Partner, Canon U.S.A., Inc. (Canon USA) has determined that
the imagePROGRAF iPF8400SE printer meets the Energy Star guidelines for
energy efficiency.
