Canon has announced the launch of the Colorado M-Traffic printer, designed traffic signage production.

The Colorado M-Traffic is a 1.6m roll-to-roll printer, which is compatible with both 3M Reflective media and Canon UVgel 540R inks and is also enhanced when used with Sai FlexiCOMPLETE 3M Traffic Edition Software.

Duncan Smith, country director, production at Canon UK & Ireland, said: “The introduction of the Colorado M-Traffic offers signage makers a unique workflow, which brings ease of use and proven technology benefits.

“Through compatibility with 3M and SAi FlexiCOMPLETE 3M Traffic Edition software, this printer enables sign makers across EMEA to confidently deliver high quality, cost efficient, sustainable and highly productive output which helps improve traffic signage visibility.”

In the dedicated ‘traffic-signage mode’, the printer can produce up to 15.3m sq/hr on 122cm wide media, helping users to produce traffic signage quickly and consistently.

The Colorado M-Traffic also offers fast roll-switching and integrated nozzle diagnostics to support reliable performance during long print jobs.

Compatible Canon UVgel 540-R inks are formulated to support the colour performance requirements of traffic signage applications using a CMYK ink set, along with providing producers with consistent and accurate output.
