Canon invite Colortrac to exhibit at drupa 2008
14 April 2008, 3:30pm
Colortrac Ltd, the leading innovator in large format colour scanning, has been invited by Canon Europe to demonstrate their latest high definition SmartLF product range running Colortrac ScanWorks and CopySmart software at drupa 2008.
Drupa is the world's leading printing and publishing industry trade fair. Visitors to drupa 2008 can see Colortrac's wide format colour scanners and scan / copy software at work with Canon's new range of imagePROGRAF (iPF) large format inkjet printers on Canon's stand in Hall 8a, Stand B46. (drupa 2008, Düsseldorf Fairgrounds, 29th May - 11th June 2008.)
Canon Europe and Colortrac have had a close marketing partnership since 2000. The partnership has grown in importance for both parties over the past 4 years as each executed highly competitive product strategies. Colortrac has revolutionised the large format scanner market with the price and performance of the SmartLF range while Canon's imagePROGRAF LFP products are now recognised as leading contenders by anyone seriously considering the purchase of a professional quality large format printer.
Colortrac is the only wide format scanner manufacturer to use both of the two main optical imaging technologies, CCD (charge coupled device) suitable for colour graphics and artwork, and CIS (contact image sensor) suitable for monochrome and colour technical imaging. This approach fits perfectly with the Canon iPF 8000s and iPF 710 printers that target these respective markets also.
Importantly, a Canon printer and a Colortrac scanner can be combined into a multi-function print (mfp) system. Colortrac will demonstrate the mfp benefits of the SmartLF scanners' high colour accuracy and sharpness in conjunction with the exceptional productivity of Canon's iPF printers whose colour quality sets new standards in the wide format printer market.
Together, Colortrac and Canon have had a huge impact on the wide format scanning and printing market. This is underlined by Canon's invitation to Colortrac to exhibit alongside them at drupa 2008.

Each month we select a hot topic and a leading figure in the industry to write about it.HAVE WE REALLY LEARNT THE LESSONS FROM LAST YEAR’S FLOODS?
Flooding costs associated with extreme weather, both financial and emotional, have increased considerably over the last decade, and experts have predicted this trend is set to continue.
Paul Livett, Chairman of GroundSure looks into how increasing the use of flood risk information in property transactions can help to ensure both residential and commercial transactions are conducted on a truly informed basis, with buyers being made aware of environmental risks prior to purchase.
Over 2.2 million homes and small businesses in the UK are located in areas considered at risk of flooding, and the Association of British Insurers (ABI) has said that 570,000 of these face a high risk of flooding. The floods in June and July last year left approximately 48,000 households… More…
