44-Inch Large-Format Printer
The Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-4600 is a 44-inch inkjet printer built for photographers, fine-art studios and proofing departments that need gallery-grade output up to 1118 mm wide. It prints only, using a 12-channel LUCIA PRO II pigment set that adds a Chroma Optimizer for uniform gloss and scratch resistance.
11-Colour Pigment System With Chroma Optimizer
Eleven colours plus Chroma Optimizer feed through 18,432 nozzles at 2400 x 1200 dpi maximum resolution. Front-loading roll and cut-sheet paths accept media from 152.4 mm to 1118 mm wide, while built-in USB 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet and IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless let the printer sit anywhere on the network. A 3 GB buffer handles large PDF, JPEG and SGRaster jobs without host bottlenecks.
Upgrade From Smaller-Format Or 8-Colour Devices
Moving from a 24-inch or 8-colour workflow gains the full 44-inch width, two extra chromatic inks and the Chroma Optimizer layer that reduces bronzing on glossy media. The jump is worthwhile when print runs regularly exceed A2, when colour-critical clients demand the expanded gamut, or when scratch-resistant output is a delivery requirement.
