The Canon iPF770 printer usesdye inksto create stunning quality prints. To explain briefly……..

Whilst all Canon imagePROGRAF printers print at the same resolution (dpi), they are available with5 colour ‘dye’ ink systems, or with6, 8 or 12 colour ‘pigment’ ink systems.The dye ink machinesare perfectfor CAD and technical drawings, maps and high quality, short term display prints such as in house posters and banners, but dye inks have no long term UV fade resistance or water resistance. The pigment ink machineswill give a wider colour gamut, the more inks they have. The pigment ink also give UV fade resistance and some water resistance meaning these models will offer long lasting prints for framing and display and even outdoor display.
