Exceptional Color Gradation: A Smooth Transition from Light to Dark
Say goodbye to banding and unwanted colour shifts. The PRO-2600 boasts exceptional colour gradation, ensuring smooth and seamless transitions between different hues. This translates to breathtakingly realistic and lifelike prints, where subtle colour variations are captured with incredible accuracy. Imagine a photograph of a vibrant sunrise, where the fiery orange seamlessly blends into soft pinks and delicate purples.

The PRO-2600 brings these scenes to life with unmatched colour fidelity, ensuring your artistic vision is flawlessly translated onto the page.
Unlocking the Power of Deep Blacks with Chroma Optimizer
The magic of the PRO-2600 doesn't stop at vibrant colours. It introduces the revolutionary Chroma Optimizer, a secret weapon that elevates your prints to new heights. This innovative technology goes beyond colour reproduction, it enhances dark density, producing deeper blacks with unmatched precision. Deeper blacks add a layer of richness and depth to your prints. In photographs, they create captivating contrast, highlighting details in shadows and adding a sense of drama. In fine art pieces, they enhance the overall impact of the artwork, drawing the viewer's eye to specific elements and adding a sense of realism. The Chroma Optimizer works by applying a special clear coat over specific areas of your print, particularly those with darker tones. This coating enhances light absorption, resulting in truly black blacks, not just a dark shade of another colour. This creates a stunning visual impact, making your prints stand out and grab attention.
Increased durability
Defying Time: The Unrivaled Durability of the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-2600
The imagePROGRAF PRO-2600 isn't just a printer; it's a time capsule for your artistic creations. Canon has revolutionized print longevity with this innovative machine, ensuring your artwork transcends the limitations of time. Here's how the PRO-2600 guarantees the lasting brilliance of your prints:
High Scratch-Resistant Ink: Guarding Against Everyday Wear and Tear
Gone are the worries of accidental nicks or scratches ruining your precious artwork. The PRO-2600 utilizes high scratch-resistant ink, forming a protective layer on your prints. This innovative ink formulation shields your masterpieces from everyday wear and tear, such as accidental touches or light brushing against surfaces.
Whether you're showcasing your work in a gallery, displaying it proudly in your home, or presenting it to clients, you can have peace of mind knowing your prints will retain their pristine condition for years to come.
Unmatched Lightfastness: Prints that Outlast Trends
Traditionally, prints are susceptible to fading over time, losing their vibrancy and detail as they're exposed to light. The PRO-2600 breaks this barrier with its high light resistance pigment ink. This specially formulated ink boasts an exceptional 200-year lightfastness rating.
What does this mean for you? It signifies that your prints will resist fading for an astonishing two centuries! This ensures your artwork retains its original colours and details for generations to come. Imagine creating a family portrait or a breathtaking landscape that can be enjoyed by your children, grandchildren, and even their children.
Setting the Benchmark for Print Longevity
The PRO-2600 doesn't just meet the standards for print longevity; it surpasses them. With its innovative ink technology, your artwork transcends the limitations of traditional prints.
