This advantage is achieved without compromising
print quality or speed.
The PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II/9000 Mark II features
two paper paths: a standard top loader and a
manual front loader for increased versatility and
convenience. The front loader can accept thick, fine
art media, creating a straight paper path that
prevents the media from bending while printing.
When shooting with selected EOS digital SLR cameras
and printing with the PIXMA Pro9500 Mark II/
Pro9000 Mark II, photographers can take advantage
of improved advanced camera direct capabilities.
Photographers can use print effects to finely
tune images and can arrange images in a variety
of useful layouts—all on their cameras. Ultimately,
