Engineered for the print, not the queue.
LUCIA PRO ink set
Microencapsulated colorants deliver smooth gradients and an expanded gamut; a dedicated Chroma Optimizer clear-coats glossy prints to even the gloss, deepen darks, and resist scratching.
No black-ink switching
Matte black and photo black run on their own dedicated nozzles — move from fine-art rag to glossy photo paper without a purge, a pause, or wasted ink.
PF-10 print head
A single 1.28-inch-wide head with 18,432 nozzles and FINE anti-clog tech. Twenty-seven sensors check ejection live; if a nozzle misfires, a backup takes over mid-print.
L-COA PRO engine
Three processing chips digest immense image data and compute the optimal ink layout in real time — high resolution without slowing the queue.
Built-in color calibration
A tri-color LED densitometer with condenser lens recalibrates color fast from the printer panel, keeping printer-to-printer differences low across supported media.
Intelligent media loading
A multi-sensor reads surface reflection and thickness to auto-detect the paper, and remaining-media estimation tracks roll length from the head — no printed barcodes.
Sub-ink tank system
Drain every drop before replacement and swap tanks on the fly — long runs never stop for ink.
Hardened job vault
A 500 GB encrypted HDD stores and reprints jobs; secure PIN printing protects work in shared environments.
