Leveraging and extending Canon’s existing inkjet technology, which it has successfully deployed through its PIXMA desktop printers range, the DreamLabo 5000 features a newly developed high-density print head, enabling over 300 mm wide printing output. Incorporating Canon’s FINE (Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) technology, the print head enables the printing of high-quality photos and detailed text to support a variety of high-value-added output, from premium photo albums, photo books, photo calendars, photo collages and other merchandise to high-quality POD items, such as bespoke brochures.

The wide print head delivers high-speed One-Pass printing, requiring only a single pass of the printing paper while the print head remains in a fixed position. When used in combination with the automatic Double-sided printing function up to 12x25’size, the DreamLabo 5000 is capable of printing approximately 1000 pages of A4 size content and 2300 pages of 4x6’ size content per hour. Canon is offers exclusive high quality inkjet papers DreamLabo 5000 which are like Luster, glossy satin and metallic in different sizes. Canon DreamLabo 5000 can print RGB/SRGB files directly with resolution up to 1200x2400dpi .The system also attains high productivity by enabling paper and ink tank replacement during printing, supporting the extended operation time required for production printers.

DreamLabo 5000 uses a seven-colour dye-based ink system that delivers smooth gradation.  Employing image processing technology that makes use of the full range of Canon’s unique inkjet printing colour gamut, the new printer enables the output of photo images with a level of colour representation which comprehensively surpasses that of conventional silver halide.

The retail price of DreamLabo 5000 in India is approximately Rs. 4.5 crore. Canon India, in association with its channel partners will work towards realising the full potential of this advanced technology.
