The UL Environment (worldwide leading of safety and certification company) certified Canon’s UVgel 460 ink with the highest level on GRENNGUARD Gold. This certification is granted to products that meet the strictest chemical emission standards when used indoors.                                                                                  

Canon is honored to be awarded the GREENGUARD Gold Certification by the UL Environment for Canon’s UVgel 460 ink technology,” said Shinichi Yoshida, executive vice president and general manager, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “This recognition has confirmed that our goal to develop an environmentally conscience solution without compromising the speed, productivity or superb image quality of the Océ Colorado 1650 has been validated.”

Canon’s imagePROGRAF printers are very popular around the world for many different applications, especially for fine art and photography. At the beginning of October, Canon announced that they have launched five new different models of the imagePROGRAF series.

Some of the features that will be beneficial to users are related to media handling: automatic media handling where you just put the roll on the feeder, the printer detects the size and type of paper and it loads automatically. You can also load a second roll of media in the secondary roll unit and send a new job while the first is still printing. This feature saves time, but also helps to avoid fingerprints to ruin the print, since you barely have to touch the roll of media.

The printer sensors can also detect how much paper is left and if it is enough to print your job, since they measure the media that has been fed.

Additional new features include borderless printing on three sides, automated nesting for optimal media use.

At the most recent Labelexpo Europe in September, Fujifilm showcased five new products for the labeling industry.

The showcased products were: Flenex water-washable plate, processor and water treatment system, LED UV-curing system and inks and a new imprinting system.
