Pro-level 10-Ink System

The PRO-310 introduces the Lucia Pro II pigment inks, which is a significant upgrade offering superior colour reproduction and longevity. All-new  (aside from the matte black), ensure consistency and vibrant output. The magenta performance is also notably enhanced, and prints achieve an impressive 180-year archival lifespan on fine art media.

Key improvements include:

• Dark colour and black density is improved on select papers
• Chroma Optimiser (CO) improves uniformity
• Vivid colour reproduction
• Long term preservation with up to 180 years lightfastness
• Scratch resistance is better on select papers

Enhanced Finish with Chroma Optimiser

A notable feature of Canon’s range of photo printers is the use of Chroma Optimiser (CO), which provides a fine coating over areas of the print to ensure true, deep blacks on glossy papers with reduced bronzing.

Unlike older models, this optimiser is able to target only printed regions, reducing ink usage without sacrificing great results. The Chroma Optimiser coating reduces bronzing for both colour and monochrome areas.

Panoramic Print Capability

This generation printer retains its ability to produce stunning panoramic prints up to 1 metre in length. This makes it ideal for large, impactful landscape photography and wide-format artistic shots.

Compact and Versatile Design

Inspired by the PRO-1100, the PRO-310 packs advanced features into a smaller A3+ form. Its size and simplicity make it accessible for home studios or small creative workspaces while delivering professional output.

Scratch Resistance

The Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-310 offers high-level scratch and abrasion resistance through a wax applied to the printed surface, ensuring prints remain durable and retain their finish over time. Compared to previous models, the scratch resistance has been improved, making it better suited for handling, framing and display.

Expanded print sizes

The PRO-310 includes three additional regular paper sizes for greater convenience, and six new borderless sizes for photographic results. Standard sizes now include:

• A3+, A3, A4, A5
• B4,B5

Additionally, the Multi-Purpose Tray allows printing directly onto the label side of DVDs and other compatible discs.
