PIXMA Products and the Chromalife 100+ system – Better quality, longer-life photo prints.

All PIXMA’s use FINE* print heads. These print heads have been designed to work with genuine Canon inks and photo papers. Find out more about this triangular system, known as ChromaLife100+

Only when all parts of the Chromanlife100+ system are in place, are you assured of the most beautiful, long lasting photo printers.

Use genuine Canon inks

  • For photos that last a lifetime
  • For optimum life of the print head
  • For accurate, beautiful colours

To resist factors that may cause fading (especially gases in the air such as ozone), the formula of Canon inks is optimised. The result: the photo prints will last much longer.

To avoid the microscopic nozzles of the FINE print head from becoming blocked, Canon inks are manufactured in a controlled environment. The result: the ink is always pure and free of dust particles.

To ensure a correct colour gamut, the density of Canon inks is carefully controlled. The result: the colour mix is always optimal, and the photo prints are always vibrant.

Use genuine Canon photo paper

  • For photos that last a lifetime
  • For instant-dry photo prints
  • For the perfect gloss

To protect the ink from environmental factors that may cause fading, Canon papers have a micro-porous coating that locks the ink below the surface. The result: the photo prints will last much longer.

To prevent excess ink from being left on the paper’s surface, the micro-porous coating quickly absorbs the ink delivered from the fast firing FINE print head. The result: instant-dry prints.

To avoid interference with the glossy top layer, the micro-porous coating on Canon glossy papers locks the ink deeper below the surface than other papers do. The result: a ‘glossy’ finish always is glossy.
