Canon Pixma MP810 News Release Summary:
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., Aug 24, 2006 – Canon's stylish new PIXMA
MP810 and MP600 Photo All-In-One (AIO) printers give consumers
high quality photos, fast scanning and copying in a package that
is easy-to-use and looks attractive in a home environment. With
the new Easy-Scroll Wheel interface found on these two models,
consumers can control device functions quickly and simply. In
addition, the bright, high-definition TFT LCD screens allow
consumers to view and edit photos directly from the all-in-one.
"The Canon PIXMA MP810 and MP600 models' stylish design and
innovative interface makes these new multi-function devices an
attractive addition to any home, that any member of the family
can easily use," said Yukiaki Hashimoto, senior vice president
and general manager of the consumer imaging group at Canon
U.S.A., Inc. "Now all generations within the family, from
grandparents to grandchildren, can easily copy and print vivid
photos or produce crisp, professional-looking documents with
great ease."
The Easy-Scroll Wheel and TFT Screen add to ease of use
Canon introduce the world's first multi-function printers with
the Easy-Scroll Wheel interface. Consumers can access document
operations at a glance, including the copy, scan, or print
functions by simply rotating the wheel to the desired feature
and pressing the "OK" button. Users can now keep their eyes on
the screen while selecting and executing functions, to give them
full control at their fingertips. What's more, Canon added the
"HOME" and "NAVI" buttons to this device's operational panel.
When consumers push the NAVI button, it displays the machines on
screen guide, which includes how-to recommendations for the most
common functions. The HOME button allows users to return to the
main menu, regardless of where they are in the sub-menus,
assuring users that home is always just a click away. By adding
the Easy-Scroll Wheel, HOME and NAVI buttons, Canon has been
able to reduce the number of total buttons by approximately half
compared to competing multifunction models.
The Easy-Scroll Wheel also includes a large, bright and colorful
TFT-type LCD screen, which consumers can use to preview images
before printing and photo editing. The screen is viewable at a
170-degree angle, so everyone around the unit can enjoy what is
displayed, rather than just the person sitting directly in front
of the AIO.
The PIXMA MP810 Photo All-In-One: Easy, Speedy, High-Resolution
Machine
The PIXMA MP810 Photo All-In-One offers consumers a versatile
device that can deliver a stunning maximum 9600 x 2400 color
dpi1, and can produce a photo-lab quality 4 x 6 inch borderless
photo in approximately 21 seconds2. Ink droplets can be as small
as one picoliter for razor sharp photos, with virtually no
visible grain, comparable to photo-lab results. The five-tank
ChromaLife100 system supplies long lasting vibrant prints for
years to come3, while the individual ink tanks feature Smart LED
lights to alert the user to low ink levels and troubleshoot ink
related installation issues.
PC-free photo printing is a snap with the MP810 model, allowing
users to connect any PictBridge compatible digital camera or DV
camcorder directly. Users can even print wirelessly through an
IrDA interface or via an optional Bluetooth4 accessory. The
MP810 AIO's built-in memory card slots5 allows users to preview
their images on the large three-inch TFT display, and perform
basic editing functions, such as trimming, red-eye removal, and
face-brightening. The three inch TFT screen makes navigating the
Easy-Scroll Wheel menus and functions easy and fast.
For scanning of photos and important documents, the MP810 Photo
All-In-One scans at a maximum optical resolution of 4800 x 4800
dpi, with vibrant 48-bit color depth. Besides excelling at
digital prints, the MP810 Photo All-In-One also answers the
question... "How do I archive that box full of old slides or
negatives?" Users simply load their negatives or film slides
into the provided adapter, and have a choice of scanning or
making a direct photo print of their images without the need to
use a computer.
In addition, the MP810 model has other great features that make
it a compelling addition to the home or home office setup. The
Advanced Paper Handling system, with its two paper trays and
automatic two-sided printing allows users to store photo paper
in one tray and plain paper in the other, so they don't have to
manually switch paper supplies. The Auto-Duplexing feature for
documents and photos can help save paper, while allowing for
greater creativity for crafting and photo projects.
The versatile and powerful PIXMA MP810 Photo AIO will carry an
estimated selling price of $299.996.
Improved Copy Technology
All new additions to the Canon AIO line-up employ advanced copy
technology to help give the user amazing reproductions of
original images and documents. Dual Color Gamut Processing
Technology improves color accuracy by independently controlling
brightness, hue, and other elements to make sure that there are
minimal differences between the original and the copy. Users can
now avoid the frustrations that come with poor quality when
making a copy of a copy. With Dual Color Gamut Processing
Technology, documents remain sharp and photos look like they
came from your neighborhood photo mini-lab. In addition, with
Text and Image Separation Technology, the system can actually
differentiate text from an image, making black text and fine
lines dark and sharp when printing with pigmented black ink. Now
when black text appears over an image, the text on the following
generations of copies can be virtually as clear as the first.
These technologies plus hardware improvements in scanning and
printing can help make a copy almost indistinguishable from the
original.
ChromaLife100 System
These new PIXMA photo AIO's use the Canon ChromaLife100 system,
including the FINE print head technology for great photo
printing. When using select genuine Canon photo papers and inks,
prints can resist fading for up to 100 years when stored in an
archival quality photo album3. The up to 100-year-lifespan
rivals that of many traditional film based photos, long
considered by consumers to be the benchmark for image
permanence. Prints produced on Canon Photo Paper Pro with
ChromaLife100-compatible inks have an up to ten-year gas
fastness when exposed to open air3. Prints created with the
ChromaLife100 system, comprised of genuine Canon ink and photo
paper, like Photo Paper Pro or Photo Paper Plus Glossy, have up
to 30-year lightfastness when displayed under glass3.
