NEW - Canon Launch new imagePROGRAF TM series Plotters – 3 October 2023

Building on 20 years of success with the Canon iPF series, a new line up of these popular models enters the market this month.

Slimmer and more compact than the older variants but still featuring the ability to take longer roll lengths and a choice of ink sizes the TM series offers a variety of choices for different users.

The A1 Line Up......

TM-240 replaces the TA-20, aimed squarely at lower volume users with it's 55ML ink cartridges it still benefits from features associated with higher production printers.

TM-255 replaces the most popular product the TM-200, retains the choice of either 130ML or best value for money 300ML inks in addition to being able to accept up to 175 meter rolls on 3" core with the optional adapters. Adding to processing times the TM-255 comes with an inbuilt HDD as standard, something that the TM-200 missed.

The A0 Line up.........

Reflecting the 24" variants the 36" units also include a TM-350, an A0 without an HDD and direct replacement to Canon's top selling TM-300

TM-340 replaces the TA-30, a great choice for occasional printers who just need the odd A0 or A1 output, like the A1 TM-240 it utilises smaller 55ML inks so your money isn't tide up in cartridges.

TM-350 - replaces the award winning TM-300 with many additional benefits not to mention it's sleeker design.

TM-355 - The TM-305 was popular with memory hungry users due to it's HDD and the TM-355 also features this.

If you need to scan to file or indeed copy then the TM series is the only unit in it's category where you can add a scanner to the top of the plotter making it an MFD, no need to do it upfront you can add this later on if desired or if needs change, but equally you can buy a bundle where this is included.

Additionally there is a choice of scanners from Canon dependant on which printer you have, the highly powerful Z36 A0 scanner provides high-Quality feature rich functions and the Lm series is a light-weight option which offers a lower entry price for budget conscious users whilst still providing great functionality.
