Desktop type large format, thin body saves space
The imagePROGRAF TC-5200 24 inch large format printer has a slim body, fashionable appearance, compact design, and can be conveniently placed on a bookshelf or desk for use. It is suitable for users with limited workspace but large format printing needs. The top of the machine body adopts the design of non horizontal axis reel support, which saves more operating space when installing paper compared with the traditional horizontal axis reel design. In addition, it is obviously difficult for home, small or temporary users to provide dedicated IT maintenance personnel for printer equipment. In order to solve the problem of difficult self maintenance of user equipment, imagePROGRAF TC-5200 continues the advantages of imagePROGRAF series, and all basic operations are placed on the front of the fuselage. Whether it is web paper installation, sheet fed installation, maintenance cartridge replacement or adding ink, users do not need to move the printer or wrap around the back of the printer, and the operation can be easily and simply completed on the front. This full front end operation design not only enables the printing equipment to be placed against the wall, effectively uses the space to reduce the floor area, but also greatly saves the time of equipment maintenance.
At the same time, users can choose an additional desktop paper collection basket for imagePROGRAF TC-5200 printer according to their own needs, so that print files can be easily stored and the business office space can be more orderly.

ImagePROGRAF TC-5200 is equipped with ASF automatic paper feeder as standard, which can load up to 50 pieces of A3 ordinary paper or 100 pieces of A4 ordinary paper at a time, realizing automatic continuous printing of single document. In the printing process, it can also realize the automatic switching between sheet fed paper and web fed paper, and the two paper feeding methods are complementary to each other, so as to further realize the worry free and efficient document printing. Only one desktop device can easily handle the output of various sizes of paper from A4 to A1, and meet the user's multiple needs for printing reports, leaflets, design drawings and other documents. In addition to printing ordinary paper, imagePROGRAF TC-5200 also supports multi media output, such as packaging, labels, posters and other creative materials of different sizes and materials. It can also print high-quality color photos, which further highlights the diversified printing output.

High quality output guarantee, large capacity ink support
The size of "slimming" does not affect excellent performance. ImagePROGRAF TC-5200 integrates core technology and adopts four color full pigment ink, which can clearly reproduce small text and thin lines in drawings, and print high-quality text and lines equivalent to high-end large format models. The ink itself is not easy to spread when the drawing is marked with a marker or affected with moisture, so it is more suitable for viewing and using the drawing in the outdoor environment. In addition, imagePROGRAF TC-5200 has better red expression, high color saturation, and more sharp and vivid colors. Bright red is often used in posters and leaflets, which helps attract more customers' attention and bring better publicity results.

The imagePROGRAF TC-5200 uses a 170 ml large capacity ink bottle, which is not only economical and practical, but also can reduce the frequency of user ink replenishment operations. At the same time, the ink bottle and interface of each color are different in shape, and the relevant color is displayed at the interface, which can effectively prevent errors when refilling the ink. During the inking process, the ink filling can be started and stopped automatically without touching the bottle cap, which is not dirty and easier. It is also very friendly to novice users.

ImagePROGRAF TC-5200 supports a variety of printing application schemes and device management schemes. Free Direct Print Plus application scheme can be used for drawing output: multiple types of files can be directly dragged and dropped for printing, without opening the file application program to select the paper source and size, so that printing Xiaobai can achieve multiple formats and sizes without pressure. In addition, Canon Print Inkjet/SELPHY software application scheme is adopted, so that users can complete printing, copying, material allowance confirmation, firmware upgrade and other operations through smart mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets, which can get rid of the operation constraints of traditional desktop computers and make office work easier.
