Production-ready signs and posters, up to 44 inches wide, with bold orange. The Canon imagePROGRAF GP-4600S is a 44-inch large format printer built for production signage, advertising graphics, posters, and business displays. Its 7-color LUCIA PRO II pigment ink system includes Orange ink and can reach 96% of the PANTONE FORMULA GUIDE Solid Coated, so brand colors and bold graphics come out closer to what you specified. Canon formulates the ink for high light resistance, improved black density, and high scratch resistance.
