New Magenta Ink

Equipped with newly formulated magenta ink, these printers achieve excellent red colour development. The printers produce highly visible posters, making it possible to create attention-grabbing retail POPs and engaging office displays. The use of pigment ink for all colours helps to ensure that prints do not easily fade over time, making them suitable for long-term display, and also provides water resistance for outdoor use.

Colour Calibration

The ability to calibrate your printer for consistent colour quality is now available in the imagePROGRAF TM Series. This helps ensure your output is colour consistent over time and across multiple TM Series devices.

Speed

With the new L-COA PRO II processor, the new imagePROGRAF TM Series is approximately 30 percent faster than previous models with a speed of up to 3.2 ppm for an Arch D size sheet (24” x 36”).

Ease of Use

The newly designed imagePROGRAF TM Series has been built for more efficiency and comfort compared to previous models with its new flat-body design, fullfrontal operation, and new 4.3” adjustable user interface screen.

Environmentally Conscious

Registered as EPEAT Gold—first in the imagePROGRAF TM Series— and as ENERGY STAR certified, this series is replacing EPS packaging materials with cardboard packaging.

The new imagePROGRAF TM Series is able to determine the media type, length, and width, and displays this information on the user interface home screen.
