MANILA, Philippines – In December 2023, Canon announced the launch of its new imagePROGRAF TM Series, a line of large format printers designed to meet the diverse needs of corporate offices, engineering sites, and print shops. This series includes six models: TM-5240, TM-5340, TM-5250, TM-5255, TM-5350, and TM-5355, featuring a combination of single and multifunction printers.
Key Features of the imagePROGRAF TM Series
- Speed and Efficiency: The new L-COA PRO II image processing engine significantly boosts print speed and data processing, enabling faster production of drawings and posters. The TM-5350/5355 models, for instance, print up to 3.2 sheets per minute, marking a 28% improvement over previous models.
- Versatile Printing Applications: The series supports the “Direct Print Plus” application for batch printing using different file formats, and “PosterArtist” for creating custom designs from a range of templates.
- High-Quality Vivid Prints: Thanks to the newly developed magenta ink and all-color pigment ink, these printers deliver sharp, vivid prints on plain paper, ideal for CAD drawings and posters. The color calibration function ensures consistent color reproduction.
Design and Ease of Use The imagePROGRAF TM Series features a new flat-top design, simplifying roll paper loading and operation. The wider printer panel allows easy monitoring of paper type, remaining roll estimation, and ink levels. Notably, models TM-5240/5340 operate at a reduced noise level of about 39dB.
Environmental Considerations In a move towards environmental sustainability, Canon has replaced Styrofoam with cardboard packaging for these printers.
Availability The imagePROGRAF TM Series is available through authorized Canon dealers, offering businesses a robust solution for their large format printing needs.
