Key Features
The matte black ink is designed to deliver outstanding black color reproduction suitable for a wide range of markets and applications. The use of pigment ink for all colors helps to ensure prints are resistant to fading and easy to handle in outdoor environments.
Image processing improvements and LUCIA TD ink help to enhance AEC documents and posters with a large color gamut and improved text and line quality. This makes output more crisp, defined, and clear.
Available in the imagePROGRAF TM Series, the ability to calibrate your printer helps ensure your output is color consistent over time and across multiple TM Series devices.
At 2.4 D-size (24” x 36”) prints a minute, this is a great entry-level CAD production device! Easily print technical documents and low-coverage posters at fast speeds with this user-friendly device.
The TM Series offers enhanced security features to help protect against unauthorized printing, device access, and network intrusions or data tampering.
Boost productivity with full front access to ink, media, and cartridges and easily monitor settings on the 4.3” touchscreen.
Load the media roll onto the spindle and slide it into the device. Once manually fed, the printer automatically detects media type, width, & estimates the amount of the roll, all shown on the display panel.
