A practical imaging timeline

Canon's production print story is not a single machine launch. It is a long chain of optics, imaging, color science, office workflow, wide-format print, and service-system decisions that now matter to commercial printers every day. The milestones below explain the operating posture behind the site: measurable color, reliable dispatch, and equipment that can be financed, trained, serviced, and scaled without surprising the plant manager.

  1. 1937

    Imaging discipline takes root

    The organization begins with optical and imaging engineering, building a culture of tolerances, documentation, and measured output that later shapes production print support.

  2. 1970s

    Office print moves into managed fleets

    Copier and office print programs teach the company how to support distributed fleets, meter reads, consumables forecasting, and service escalation at scale.

  3. 1990s

    Color workflow becomes a repeatable process

    Digital color production grows from a specialty service into a daily commercial print tool. Calibration, RIP control, and substrate qualification become the core conversation.

  4. 2000s

    Wide-format and production systems converge

    Sign, display, technical, photo, and commercial print buyers start asking for one service partner that can cover multiple output classes and media libraries.

  5. 2010s

    Service data changes maintenance planning

    Connected devices, meter visibility, and remote diagnostics shift service from purely reactive repair toward planned parts dispatch and operator support.

  6. Today

    Production reliability becomes the promise

    Canon print specialists combine device selection, setup, color targets, service plans, training, and consumables into one practical operating program.

What Canon believes about production print

Calibration Discipline

Color drift is a process problem, not a personality problem. Every commercial printer conversation starts with target conditions, proof expectations, and the measurement method operators can repeat.

Operator Empowerment

Training cannot be a binder left on the console. Operators need job recipes, setup notes, consumables guidance, and escalation paths that are clear during the shift.

Service That Travels

A production printer is only as reliable as the field network behind it. Canon plans regional parts availability, dispatch windows, and remote triage into the offer.
