Introducing the TC-20M: a compact all-in-one large format printer with a 4-color pigment ink system. This versatile printer is equipped with an A4 flatbed scanner, enabling users to easily make copies from cut sheets and roll papers. It provides the flexibility to enlarge A4 documents to A3 cut sheets, A2 or A1 roll papers, and even the full width of roll paper. Users can easily select portrait or landscape orientation from the user panel.

The TC-20M includes a ‘Repeated copy’ feature, allowing users to copy and print an original document repeatedly using roll paper. This feature is ideal for applications such as wrapping paper or retail store banners. Additionally, the ‘Enlargement copy’ function enables scaling of A4 handheld leaflets and handwritten manuscripts to create large-size posters for use in travel agencies or food and beverage outlets.

With the flatbed scanner, thick booklets or brochures can be converted into hard or soft copies for distribution. In addition to the copy function, the TC-20M supports direct printing and scanning of JPEG and PDF files using a USB memory stick, eliminating the need for a workstation.

Similar to the TC-20, the TC-20M is designed to fit easily in tight spaces, making it suitable for remote worksites, small offices, and retail outlets. The front access of the printer allows for convenient daily print-related operations, such as paper loading, ink refilling, and maintenance cartridge replacement. The printer supports roll paper up to A1 plus width and is equipped with a standard auto sheet feeder for A3 or A4 cut sheets, making it a versatile all-in-one machine for copying, scanning, and printing.

To enhance productivity, the TC-20M features 70 ml ink bottles for the four colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black), enabling continuous printing, particularly beneficial for CAD drawings and poster printing. Each color inklet is uniquely designed to prevent incorrect loading of ink bottles, ensuring hassle-free operation. The printer’s large ink tank capacity reduces the time and effort required for ink refilling. It is capable of producing vibrant red color for technical drawings, graphics, and flyers commonly used in various applications. Optional desktop baskets are available for collecting and holding large format prints and long banners.

In addition, Canon has upgraded PosterArtist to version 1.1, offering new features such as two-sided printing and variable printing functions. Users can now customize text data and create brochures, booklets, certificates, event invites, and more. PosterArtist V1.1 also provides an expanded range of new and trendy design templates for creating personalized flyers, food menus, marketing collaterals, calendars, and photo collages to meet both business and personal needs.

Introducing the R40, a user-friendly scanner designed for quick and efficient document scanning and conversion into searchable digital formats, accompanied by bundled software. With its simple single-button operation, scanning becomes fast and hassle-free. Additionally, you have the option to program up to 9 shortcuts, further streamlining the scanning process. The R40 boasts a scanning speed of 40 pages per minute (ppm) and can produce high-quality scans for both sides of documents simultaneously.

Equipped with a precise and accurate feeding roller, the R40 ensures reliable scanning of various document types. Its Automatic Document Feeder has a capacity of up to 60 sheets of paper, allowing for efficient and uninterrupted scanning.

Presenting the innovative imageRUNNER 2224N (iR 2224N), a multi-function device designed to enhance business efficiency and optimize office document workflows by delivering fast, high-quality output. With its cutting-edge security features, the iR 2224N provides businesses with comprehensive protection for their devices, data, and network. This device excels in productivity, offering wide media support and a large paper input capacity. It also provides various connectivity options, allowing for an optimized office setup. Thanks to its unrivaled reliability and robust features, the iR 2224N seamlessly performs in even the most challenging work environments.
