Canon releases three new imagePROGRAF printers

Canon just announced three new printers to their graphic arts line of wide format printers. The new models are the iPF6300, iPF6350, and iPF8300. The iPF6300 and the iPF6350 are both 24" wide printers and the iPF8300 is a 44" wide printer. Some of the improvements that Canon is making is a newly developed mechanical structure and a new pigment ink set - the LUCIA EX. It also seems like they are enhancing their RIP support for their printers as well. These software manufacturers will be releasing RIP software support for the new printers: GMG, CGS, EFI, ONYX, Ergosoft, and a few others. IT Supplies has some more information on this as well a link to the press release Canon sent out.
