Printers

 Packed in a stylish form with innovative features
like the six-colour ink system and message-in-print app, the new PIXMA printers
redefine the power of printing for homes and small offices

SINGAPORE, 20 September 2017 – Canon today announced the launch of the newest
PIXMA TS9170, TS8170, TS5170 photo all-in-one and the PIXMA TR8570 office
all-in-one printers. This new line-up of printers boasts of a unique feature
that is set to reinvent the way we remember our favourite moments of friends
and family. With the new Message in Print app, a physical photo print is more
than meets the eye with the use of technology that enables messages to be
embedded within photos as a surprise for the recipient.  The flagship Canon PIXMA TS9170 lends a touch
of elegance to any modern home with its champagne gold lid and black chassis,
while the PIXMA TS8170 comes in stylish black, dynamic red and minimalist
white.

“Canon’s new line of PIXMA printers complements life’s best
moments through its ability to preserve and share memories on-the-go, with
double the dynamism”, said Edwin Teoh, Head of Marketing, Singapore Operations,
Canon Singapore. Designed in a compact form to blend seamlessly into home
offices or even parties, the stylish printers are superb for daily printing
needs with the new Photo Blue ink in its six-colour ink system that guarantees
vibrant and stunning prints.”

Changing
The Way Memories are Captured in Print

Imagine a heartwarming birthday greeting that carries
voices and sounds from an actual celebration, or a photo postcard of a concert
that emits the very tunes being played at the performance. The new Message in
Print app[1]
makes all these possible. Allowing for personalised messages with animations or
links to web videos to be embedded in any photo[2],
the meaningful surprise can be delivered simply through viewing the photo via
the Message in Print app.

True
Colour Fidelity with Photo Blue for Beautiful Photos

Canon’s new 6-ink system delivers breathtaking colour
reproduction with an expanded colour gamut. With the new Photo Blue ink in the
6-ink systems for the PIXMA TS9170 and TS8170, photos graininess are minimised
to reveal finer details. With ink cartridges available in standard and XL
capacities, small businesses can enjoy lower costs of print using XL cartridge
on the PIXMA TR8570 Office All-In-One printer. 

Seamless,
Low Energy Connectivity[3]

With wireless connectivity, users can print and scan photos
and documents directly from a mobile device, to deliver the convenience of
printing on-the-go.

With Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, users can
always stay connected to PIXMA printers via the Canon Print Inkjet/SELPHY app.
Besides enjoying the convenience of printing anytime, anywhere, they can enjoy
easy wireless printer setup, and receive status alerts such as low-ink
notifications or when there is no paper in the tray, simply by being within
Bluetooth discoverable range of the printer.

User-Intuitive
Functions Packed into a Sleek Form

Equipped with a large 5” touch-screen display mounted on a
tilt panel, users can enjoy a variety of creative filters to achieve special
effects like monochrome and sepia in their prints, when printing from memory
cards on the PIXMA TS9170.

Similarly, the PIXMA TS8170 and TR8570 feature an
adjustable tilt panel that houses the 4.3” touch-screen LCD, making it perfect
for consumers who want a versatile printer without needing to compromise on
speed and productivity.

As a space-saving all-rounder, the PIXMA TS5170 features a
2.5” LCD on an adjustable tilt panel, which makes it easy to operate and view
menu options.

Maximising
Work Productivity

With the ability to load paper in two directions (rear tray
and cassette tray), users can switch easily between two different paper types,
such as plain paper and glossy photo paper. Those that do need to print a large
number of documents can even fill both trays with A4 plain paper for a combined
paper capacity of up to 200 sheets.[4]

The automatic duplex printing[5]
function enables both time and cost savings through eliminating the need to
manually reverse a previously printed stack. Additionally, the PIXMA TR8570
also features a time-saving Automatic Document Feeder that can load up to
20-sheets of documents for scanning or copying.

The Document Removal Reminder function is yet another
useful feature for ensuring document security. When a document is left on the
scanner glass after a scan or copy, a notification on the LCD panel and an
audio alert prompts the user to remove their original document left on the
scanner platen. The ID Card Copying function allows double-sided ID cards to be
scanned onto a single printout, while retaining the original card size.
