Canon’s high-yield PIXMA G Series printers deliver substantial productivity gains without compromising on quality

Designed for small office use or budding home-based entrepreneurs, the Canon PIXMA G6050 is a multi-function colour printer with scan and copy capability and a practical front facing tilt-able panel with 2-line LCD. In addition, the Canon PIXMA G5050 is a single-function colour printer with ethernet for secure network connections and Wi-Fi for smart device connectivity. Meanwhile, Canon’s PIXMA GM2050 is a single function black and white refillable ink tank printer that delivers low running costs and high productivity for businesses with mainly mono printing requirements.

Each printer is designed for the demands of frequent office use, with better quality, rapid printing and competitive running costs. With enhanced mess-free ink bottles, high-yield ink tanks and a wide array of connectivity options, Canon’s latest PIXMA G-Series printers grant small business owners uncompromised quality and extensive functionality.

Whether for an estate agent printing property details or a restaurant chain printing daily menus, costs remain low with Canon’s high-yield ink tanks. Capable of delivering up to 18,000 pages from just three black ink bottles or 7,700 pages from the Canon PIXMA G6050 and Canon PIXMA G5050's colour set1, minimising interruptions and saving time by removing the need to continually purchase ink cartridges and cutting the cost-per-page.

All three printers maximise productivity with auto double-sided printing and a 350-sheet plain paper capacity, minimising paper refills and cutting expenditure on paper. When ink does run low, fast paced businesses can take advantage of Canon’s enhanced squeeze-free ink bottles, specially designed for a quick refill to minimise printing downtime.

Businesses with substantial daily printing requirements can benefit from speeds of up to 13 ipm mono and 6.8 ipm colour for the Canon PIXMA G6050 and Canon PIXMA G50502. These marginal gains can combine for a significant boost in productivity.

The cost savings and productivity gains delivered by these new PIXMA G-Series printers do not mean compromising on quality.

The Canon PIXMA G6050 and Canon PIXMA G5050 can also produce vibrant borderless photos in sizes up to A4 and printing a 4x6 inch photo in approximately 37 seconds3.

Each printer also offers smart and convenient printing via the Canon PRINT app for iOS and Android, and the ability to print from cloud with the PIXMA Cloud Link, including Google Drive, Dropbox and Evernote. Bringing even more flexibility to the process, Canon PIXMA G6050 and Canon PIXMA G5050 owners can print wirelessly and directly from a smart device with AirPrint (iOS), Mopria (Android) or Windows 10 Mobile. For businesses that require a more secure connection, Ethernet connectivity is also available.

Small business owners looking to expand to multiple locations can remotely monitor each of these printers with Canon’s Management Information Base, available online. The system enables ink levels and print counts to be checked from a single location so that new ink bottles and paper can be re-ordered before they run out.

The Canon PIXMA G6050 and Canon PIXMA G5050 are compatible with a number of new media, including magnetic photo paper, sticky backed photo paper and 3.5” x 3.5” square photo paper, great for those looking to get creative with their printer at home.

New Canon RF 85mm F1.2 L USM Lens Announced

The Go-To RF-Mount Portrait Lens: Canon U.S.A. Announces The RF 85mm F1.2 L USM

The New L-Series Lens is Canon’s First RF Lens to Feature Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics Helping to Greatly Reduce Chromatic Aberration

MELVILLE, NY, May 8, 2019 – Continuing the company’s commitment to providing photographers with core focal-length lenses for the EOS R Full-Frame mirrorless camera system, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM standard prime lens. The fifth lens in the RF family, the RF 85mm lens provides another vital tool for photographers using the EOS R or EOS RP cameras, in particular, those shooting portrait photography.

“Optics is at the core of Canon’s heritage. It is engrained in our DNA and the top priority when developing the EOS R Camera System around the RF mount and accompanying lenses,” said Kazuto Ogawa, president and chief operating officer, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “Canon is very enthused to now bring the lenses we shared in the RF lens development announcement, starting with the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM. We envision this product as being the quintessential workhorse lens for portrait photographers of all skill levels.”

The new lens features a bright f/1.2 aperture which, along with the 85mm focal length, encompasses an ideal lens for portrait photographers. 85mm is often the preferred focal length selected by photographers when shooting portraits because it provides an appropriate depth and perspective of the subject relative to the background, helping to capture high-quality imagery with beautiful and desirable bokeh. The focal length also allows for the photographer and subject to maintain optimum distance apart to support strong communication, while not being too close.

The most unique feature of the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens is Canon’s proprietary optical technology, Blue Spectrum Refractive (BR) Optics that helps to greatly reduce chromatic aberrations that could occur with large aperture lenses. The BR optical element, first introduced in the EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM, is inserted into the lens and refracts blue light between the concave and convex lenses. This enables the convergence of the entire wavelength of light to one point, resulting in higher image quality from the center to the edges of an image.

Additional Features of The Canon RF 85mm F1.2 L USM Include:

• Minimum focusing distance of 2.79 feet/0.85 meters
• Customizable control ring that allows photographers to adjust exposure compensation, shutter speed, aperture or ISO
• One Aspheric and one UD Lens, along with BR optics help to reduce chromatic aberration
• 12-pin communication system
• L-Series dust and weather resistant build with fluorine coating
• Air Sphere Coating (ASC) helps minimize lens flare and ghosting

Pricing and Availability
The Canon RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens is scheduled to be available June 2019 for an estimated retail price of $2699.00*. For additional information, please visit, usa.canon.com.
