 Create and sell gallery-quality images: the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II
Amstelveen, The Netherlands, 25th March 2009: Canon today announces a powerful new tool for professional photographers to create gallery-quality images for exhibition and sale. The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II is a versatile, 10-colour pigment inkjet printer, capable of producing outstanding, long-lasting prints up to A3+ size or 14” wide. Images as they were intended For exceptional colour accuracy and gamut, the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II uses a 10-colour pigment based single ink system as standard, including matte black and photo black, allowing photographers to print on gloss and matte media without the need for swapping ink tanks. The right media - for any image Finding the correct print media is crucial in turning an image into a saleable product. To maximise potential profit, the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II prints to a comprehensive range of Canon and non-Canon medias. Stunning, high-quality prints can be printed onto Canon high gloss medias without bronzing or gloss differential; other supported Canon media includes Semi-gloss, Matte Photo Paper and Fine Art medias. The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II supports ICC profiles for many specialist medias. These include Baryta types, canvas, and numerous Fine Art medias from leading brands such as Canson, Hahnemühle, Innova, Moab, Somerset, Crane, PCM and Pictorico. For additional flexibility you can create custom ICC profiles, using Canon’s Colour Management Tool Pro 2 software with selected X-Rite colour spectrophotometers. The addition of 16 bits per channel print capability – with 276 trillion possible colours – offers outstandingly smooth tonal gradations in both colour and monochrome prints. Dedicated monochrome inks minimise problems such as colour casting, and allow photographers to reproduce a smoother range of neutral and grayscale tones. New for the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II is an Ambient Light Correction feature using Canon Kyuanos technology . Users can select the type of lighting under which a print will be displayed; the colours in the final print are then automatically adjusted to ensure that the displayed result looks just the way the photographer intended. Prints that last Print longevity is the key to selling or showing your images with confidence. The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II uses Canon LUCIA pigment inks, which are specially designed to deliver long-lasting prints that retain their vibrancy for generations. Designed for working photographers Professional photographers can integrate the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II directly into their workflow by using the included Canon Easy-PhotoPrint Pro plug-in, which allows printing directly from Adobe Photoshop and the supplied Adobe Photoshop Elements software . Canon EOS users can use the plug-in to print RAW files directly from Canon Digital Photo Professional software. The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II is made to accommodate the rigours of a professional photographer’s workload. Its sturdy design – built around a rigid 1.6mm thick steel chassis – endures heavy usage to deliver reliable, consistent performance. “The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II is for photographers who are serious about exhibiting and selling their images,” said Rainer Fuehres, Head of Canon Consumer Imaging Europe. “Even on high gloss medias, results remain consistently stunning.” Key features: PIXMA Pro9500 Mark IIA3+ and 14” wide professional inkjet printer10 Single InksLucia Pigment Inks for image longevityExceptional glossy media printingStriking neutral monochrome printsArchival prints on Fine Art mediaAdobe Photoshop Elements & Canon Easy PhotoPrint Pro Plug-In software supplied16bits per channel photo printingAmbient Light Correction featureWide range of third party media supportedFlat media pathDVD/CD Direct Printing
