"
The PIXMA Pro9500 is exactly what I want for
both my commercial and fine art photography."
A
s a photographer and an illustrator, the first
things I noticed in the prints I made with the
Pro9500 are the incredible detail and richness
of color. Then, I started to become aware of the
subtleties—the fine tonal gradations, the difficult
areas of transition, the fine detail in highlight and
shadow areas—that make a huge difference in
perceived image quality. That I can produce such
fine prints with an inkjet printer is absolutely
amazing to me. Canon got it right with the LUCIA
pigment inks. My prints have to be color-stable
and fade resistant, and the Pro9500 excels in
both areas. Being
able to choose from
so many paper types
is also a big plus.

Support for a Wide Range of Media Types
Numerous Specialty and Fine Art Media Choices
The PIXMA Pro9500 provides unsurpassed support for numerous types of output media, including
specialty media, such as RC photo and various other fine art papers. The printer features versatile
dual paper paths, providing a choice of top or front paper feeding to accommodate a wide array of
media types. A manual front feeder enables the use of large, non-standard paper sizes as well as
thicker fine art and specialty media (up to 1.2mm).
More Accurate Color
The Pro9500's 10-color pigment ink system, which is based on the LUCIA set developed for Canon imagePROGRAF profes-
sional printers, results in a much wider tonal range than conventional inkjet printers. With many more available hues, the
Pro9500 delivers more faithful, more fully saturated color reproduction of images captured by today's top digital cameras,
such as Canon EOS Digital SLR cameras. And because the Pro9500 software fully supports ICC-profile-based color managed
workflows, photographers can count on exceptional consistency and color accuracy in their prints.
