There are many reasons to take an interest in the Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printers in our stock here at Prizma Graphics, which become apparent as soon as you pore over the specification sheet for this highly regarded A2 desktop 12-colour photo printer.

This machine allows for the quick and fuss-free production of stunning-quality, borderless images up to A2 in size. This is made possible by a sophisticated 12-ink system, which faithfully brings to life images that might have previously existed only on a computer screen.

And what, exactly, do we mean by “stunning quality”? Well, we’re referring to such things as exacting colour accuracy, higher levels of colour, and remarkable levels of detail.

Even in darker areas of your printed images, a wide and dynamic range of colours and detail will be evident, with deep black density and uniform glossiness helping to ensure the final picture thoroughly impresses, every single time.

Consider this reliable quality alongside the printer’s convenient desktop dimensions and ease of use, and it will soon become clear to you why so many photographers and artists – professional and amateur alike – are enquiring to stores like Prizma Graphics about their available Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printers.

An artist’s case study: Menna Hossam

For just one example of how a professional artist can tap into the capabilities of the Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000, one might look to the example of photographer, fine artist, and Canon Ambassador, Menna Hossam.

Menna is known for her enchanting photographs that are inspired by literature. But while the Cairo-based creative’s works certainly give off a sense of fairytale – as has contributed to the global acclaim they have attracted – for the artist herself, her move into the production of fine-art prints has been a fairytale in itself.

As Menna said of her journey to discovering the wonders of fine-art printing and the role the Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000 played in making that possible: “Perhaps like many digital photographers, I’ve never felt a desire to print my own images. I felt it would be a complicated process with a steep learning curve and a lot of technical hurdles to overcome.

“But more recently, I started to dream of creating my own photobook and began looking into the possibility of printing. What I found very quickly is that you can get great results straight away, and that creating your own fine-art prints is actually quite easy.”

She found that process especially straightforward with the Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printer, which she noted was “very quick and simple” to install – with a similar level of simplicity applying to the process of changing ink cartridges.

In Menna’s words: “It’s just a matter of pulling out the old cartridge and plugging in the new one, and everything’s clearly labelled and colour-coded. It couldn’t be simpler.”

The quality of the end results, though, might be the most breathtaking aspect of all for the owners and operators of Canon ImagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printers. As Menna herself put it: “I was overwhelmed by the quality of the colour and the crispness of the detail. It was completely different to looking at the same image on screen. The print was so beautiful. It really is like magic.”
