The i850 speeds through projects--including photo-quality printing--at up to 22 ppm in black and 14 ppm in color (using high-speed Draft mode), offering an unbeatable combination of quality and speed. When the printer is used with Canon Photo Paper Pro, your favorite photos should retain their brilliance for up to 25 years. Enjoy true-to-life photos with an ultrahigh resolution of up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi color resolution. The i850's borderless photo capability gives you photo-lab-quality 4-x-6-inch prints in just 48 seconds each. The i850 uses Canon's unique Think Tank System, which governs individual ink tanks with intelligent ink management to simplify use and hold down printing costs. The i850 introduces a new printhead with a unique combination of 5 pl droplets (for coverage) and 2 pl droplets (for photo-realism). Plus, Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology includes an exclusive 1,600-nozzle system that ejects consistent droplets of a prescribed volume in ultrafine sizes with remarkable accuracy. This printer also uses Precision Color Distribution Technology to virtually eliminate color variance and banding problems often found with conventional high-speed, bidirectional printing.
The i850 supports ExifPrint 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), a worldwide standard for high-quality digital photos. The i850's exclusive Easy-PhotoPrint software delivers the potential of ExifPrint. When a digital camera with ExifPrint technology captures a photo, it saves important camera settings and shooting conditions in the resulting JPEG image file. Easy-PhotoPrint analyzes the recorded data, then automatically adjusts printer driver levels and image-correction settings for optimal processing.
With its built-in paper feeder, the i850 handles 150 sheets of 24-pound paper, 80 sheets of high-resolution paper, 20 sheets of glossy 4-x-6-inch photo cards, 10 sheets of 8.5-x-11-inch glossy photo paper, or 30 transparency sheets.
