Patented CrystalPoint Technology

The best of solid toner paired with inkjet printing technology uses accurate dot positioning to create crisp, vibrant graphics that dry instantly on plain and recycled media. The wide format plotter delivers instantly dry prints, so there is zero drying time and your prints can be handled, stacked or folded immediately.

Like other members of the Canon large format family, this color printer works just like a tablet thanks to the ClearConnect user interface. The ClearConnect software suite also gives you more flexible and effortless ways to submit and manage files. Print from your desktop via Publisher Select or Direct Print software to manage complex document sets. You can even print from the cloud using your smartphone or tablet.

Sustainability

The ColorWave 3600/3800 series printers / plotters utilize unique TonerPearls toner making a totally clean printing / plotting system: no fine dust, no odor and minimal waste disposal.

The ColorWave 3600/3800 large format printer / copier / scanner converts solid toner "pearls" into a gel which is jetted and crystallized onto any type of paper or other media. By utilizing solid toner without fusing chemicals, the printer delivers virtually emission-free printing with no ozone, odor, or fine powder emissions.
