Competitive Brief

Color & Quality

The Canon iPF5000 printer and the Epson 4800 both target

the photography, proofing and fine art markets where the

ability to accurately reproduce color is critical. The Stylus

Pro 4800 is a good candidate for printing the average

photo. But, for those who want to produce professional

prints with a larger gamut of reds, greens, and blues the

iPF5000 goes far beyond the average! The Stylus Pro only

has eight colors (C, PC, M, PM, Y, LBk, LLBk, Bk, or MBk)

while the iPF5000 has an all-new 12 color ink-set featuring

red, green, and blue ink. Utilizing these three new colors,

as well as its other nine, the iPF5000 demonstrates its

ability to produce prints with noticeable differences that

showcase this expanded gamut.

The new LUCIA pigment inks that the iPF5000 utilize,

exhibit excellent black ink densities on various media

types, as well as superb short-term color shift properties,

while minimizing the effect of bronzing and metamerism

caused by average ink-jet devices.

Most printers are limited to 8-bit processing and output.

This limits the number of color gradations to 256 from pixel

to pixel. The imagePROGRAF iPF5000 printer comes with

proprietary Canon software that is capable of 16-bit

processing, which dramatically increases the gradations to

several thousand thus allowing for more of the color

captured to be printed. This capability was designed with

the professional in mind and is yet another demonstration

of how the iPF5000 is the superior device.

Automatic Black Switching

The iPF5000 will seamlessly use the correct black ink for

the job. It will use the appropriate black ink (matte or

regular black) depending on what media type is selected by

the user. This means NO MANUAL INK CHANGE and NO

WASTE. It has both the Matte Black and regular Black

online (actually in the printer) at the same time. Epson

does not. The Epson black inks must be “switched”

manually and this “switch” wastes time and ink.

Speed

The iPF5000 is significantly faster than the Epson 4800 at

comparable print-quality modes. The Epson print-head

technology, which has been around for several years, now

has 1,440 nozzles (180 nozzles per color). Canon has a

newly designed dual print head system that has over

30,000 nozzles which is unrivaled in the realm of 17-inch

large format printing. This system, combined with Canon’s

new L-COA high-speed processor, enables the iPF5000 to

produce gorgeous, high-quality prints at speeds that are 3

or more times as fast as the Epson 4800.

A common complaint by Epson users is print speed.

Because of this, many of them tend not to employ some of

the higher-resolution modes of which their printer is

capable. They might print at 720 x 720dpi or 720 x 1440dpi,

which still takes a very long time (9:46 for a 16” x 20” at

1440dpi or 18:57 for a 16” x2 0” at 2880dpi). The iPF5000

will produce breathtaking 1200x1200 prints in well under 3

minutes, (2:39 for 16.5” x 23.4” at 1200dpi). It will also

produce breathtaking 2400x1200dpi prints at speeds that

the Epson simply cannot match.
