Comments

Large printer (A3, 11x17inch). For professional artworkers, feeder for 100 sheet and cassette for 250 sheet, optional cassette for more 250 sheet, Parallel, serial RS-422 (for older Macs), optional USB kit.

Canon reported that it probably will work with the driver for the BJC-6200 (7100?). Try it with the "stp" driver.

Please report how it works so that the rating can be changed.

Consumables/Refills: 4 or 6 independent ink tanks
