Canon imagePROGRAF iPF755 Ink Cartridges

Canon iPF755 Printer Review

The Canon imagePROGRAF iPF755 can handle a range of different graphic and photo projects for professionals due to its robust large-format design. This inkjet device also has a similar series model referred to as the iPF755 MFP because its multifunction design allows it to handle copy and scan jobs. The iPF755 is moderately fast for its price range, printing a 24x36-inch drawing in as little as 28 seconds when set to Fast mode. Small offices will primarily be interested in its ability to print with excellent output quality when combining its software suite and imagePROGRAF iPF755 printer ink, but this unit also benefits from flexible media handling and easy-to-use features.

The iPF755 is large enough to be a freestanding printer, measuring 56x73x30 inches with an adjustable height when users snap on the wheel stand. The main reason this machine is bulkier than the average small office printer is its ability to support media with a maximum width of 36 inches. To support larger types of media, the unit incorporates a roll feed paper input that supports rolls with a maximum length of 59 feet and diameter of 5.9 inches. The printer can also handle cut sheet media with a width between 8 inches and 36 inches.

The status LCD on the front panel isn't sophisticated enough to display a preview of jobs, but it will show alert messages on their progress and updates on paper and Canon iPF755 printer ink levels. Although the iPF755 lacks a card reader slot on the panel, users still have the option to connect and print via the standard USB port or wired network interface. Users will be able to connect the printer to their computer if it runs Mac or Windows, as well as install the provided software suite that includes PosterArtist Lite and Digital Photo Access.

The unit's print head system uses a total of 5,120 nozzles that dispel imagePROGRAF iPF755 ink with consistency at a detailed resolution of 2400x1200 dpi. The machine's 5-color print system is packaged in separate cyan, magenta, yellow, black and matte black Canon iPF755 ink cartridges. To save money on replacements, users can purchase inexpensive Canon iPF755 ink cartridges rather than the pricier OEM supplies.

Designed to handle the jobs of architects, photographers or designers, the iPF755's large-format design can successfully print high-end, detailed documents at a range of sizes. Wireless printing capabilities would have been a nice touch, but this inkjet device offers a well-rounded design that is expanded on with its series model, the iPF755 MPF, to include support for multifunction tasks.
