Media One Announces Aqueous-Based Vinyl for Vehicle Graphics Canon U.S.A. and EFI Complete Testing of EFI’S Colorproof XF As part of Canon’s Alliance Program, EFI completes compatibility testing of EFI’s Bestcolor Technology-driven Colorproof XF with Canon’s large format devices. As a result, Canon will promote this compatibility through co-marketing and awareness generation initiatives targeting solution applications within five key markets—photography, prepress, CAD/GIS, signage, and scan/copy. Colorproof XF helps transform inkjet and laser printers into powerful proofing and production systems and is renowned for providing customers with outstanding performance, color quality, flexibility, and a highly intuitive interface. The XF Server on Mac OS X makes the system a complete cross-platform solution. With its client/server architecture and modular concept, Colorproof XF offers an unprecedented level of customization to fit print service provider’s individual needs. Circle 111 U ntil now, the rapidly growing vehicle graphics market has only been possible for solvent-based graphic manufacturers. These machines release harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) due to their solvent inks. Now you can produce vehicle graphics using inks that are not hazardous to the environment and produce an image that is far superior due to the high dpi that aqueous printers provide. Media One’s Fast Wrap is a 2-mil cast vinyl with air release adhesive coated for aqueous-based inkjet printers. When used with Media One’s Fast Wrap 2-mil cast laminate it comes with a three-year warranty. Circle 113 Ink Jet Canvas Available from IJ Technologies In response to market trends and new printer offerings, IJ Technologies announces the availability of 64-inch wide format canvas for pigment and Ultrachrome K3 inks used in the fine art/giclée and photographic/portrait markets.

IJ Technologies’ initial offering includes Premium Edition Water Resistant and Premium Edition Artist Texture canvas. IJ Technologies plans to offer 60 and 64-inch widths for its other popular canvas lines as well as the Black Diamond family of gloss and satin water resistant canvas—to be introduced later this year.
