L-COA
Q. What is the L-COA high-speed image processor?
L-COA (Large format COmmon Architecture) is a new image processor developed especially for
imagePROGRAF printers. With amazing speed, it processes large amounts of image data at high
precision, drives and controls the dual high-density print heads, and handles other functions. It is
the brain of the imagePROGRAF, so to speak. This processor makes both the excellent print
quality and fast output of the imagePROGRAF series a reality.
Q. Is L-COA wholly made by Canon including its design?
Yes.
Print heads
Q. What are the features of the print head?
These are ultra high-density print heads, thanks to special Canon print head technology called
Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering, or FINE. Two lines of nozzles per color produce
extremely tiny (4 pl) ink droplets. The iPF8000S and iPF9000S are equipped with two print heads,
for a total of 30,720 nozzles. The models maintain a high rate of output, and their exceptional
resolution, up to 2400 × 1200 dpi, satisfies professional needs for superior image quality.
Q. What is the size of ink droplets fired?
4 pl.
