[Liz Seyi]

Those of you who are regular readers of the Prizma Graphics blog will already know something about how proud we are to be a go-to supplier of all manner of Canon large-format printers from the ImagePROGRAF range.

Whether you have your eye on the TA-20, TA-30, GP-200, TM-200, TX-3100, or any of various other models, whichever ImagePROGRAF machine you ultimately purchase will offer a formidable specification sheet, making possible excellent productivity, functionality and performance.

But there’s something else that will help you get more out of your ownership of one of the latest ImagePROGRAF Canon large-format printers: the stack of free software that you can download alongside it.

We’re referring to a complement of software that you can download direct from Canon’s website – so you won’t need to worry about its safety or reputability – with the result being that you realise the fuller possibilities of your large-format print jobs using your device.

Optimise how you use your Canon ImagePROGRAF printer – in so many different ways

Whether you’re looking for software such as Quick Utility Tool Box or Status Monitor that will help you with the setup, control and administration of your new Canon printer, or solutions for printing via mobile devices – think the likes of Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY or Canon Print Service (Android) – you will find them in the brand’s free software pack.

Alongside those, there are point-of-sale (PoS) and office solutions such as Free Layout plus, PosterArtistLite, and the web version of PosterArtist. Or what about Professional Print & Layout for photo and fine art printing, or the likes of Direct Print Plus or Driver Select for your CAD and production printing?

Opening up a whole world of fast, innovative, and reliable printing
The fact is, when you purchase a Canon ImagePROGRAF wide-format printer, you will be effectively buying into a world that far transcends the specification sheet of the machine itself.

At any given time, you might be using Quick Utility Tool Box for the setup and control of your Canon ImagePROGRAF TA or TM, with its features like the Device Management Console or Media Configuration Tool. Or perhaps you could be using the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app to print with ease via your mobile device, or creating and managing print jobs on your TX-series machine with the help of Publisher Select 3?

Then, of course, there is PosterArtist, the Lite version of the software being invaluable for creating genuinely professional-quality information and promotional material suitable for printing out in large format, and the online version lending itself to the creation of compelling poster layouts in just a few clicks within the user’s web browser.

We could go on and on, but we’re sure you get the idea. The appeal of the best Canon large-format printers doesn’t reside solely in the devices themselves, as the accompanying free downloadable software can also greatly help you save both time and money.
