Along with the array of high-end camera equipment Canon unveiled earlier this week, the company also announced a new consumer-level photo printer that will sell for just $50. The Pixma iP2600 prints using Canon’s Full-Photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) print heads, the same technology used in its pricier models.
“The Pixma iP2600 Photo Printer delivers exceptional photo print quality and speed at an affordable price,” said Yuichi Ishizuka, general manager of Canon U.S.A.’s Consumer Imaging Group, in a statement. The print heads in the iP2600 use 1,472 nozzles to deliver up to 4800×1200 dpi color resolution. Canon claims the printer should be able to produce 4 x 6 prints in about 55 seconds, or 17 color pages per with toned-down quality settings.
The printer also employs Canon’s Chromalife100 system, which the company claims will produce prints that resist fading for 100 years when Canon papers and inks are used.
Canon has not yet announced when the Pixma iP2600 will go on sale, but it will debut with a $49.99 MSRP.
