From the Manufacturer
---------------------
The new standard for Canon Photo Paper. The beautiful sheen of
photographic prints using photo printing paper is so economical
you can enjoy its luster and brilliant color anytime. Canon is
proud to announce the arrival of Photo Paper Plus Glossy II
PP-201, a photo paper that improves on Photo Paper Plus Glossy
PP-101 to create a new standard in image quality and cost
performance.
Maintaining the luxurious feel of Photo Paper Plus Glossy PP-101
with better-than-ever color reproduction: Photo Paper Plus Glossy
II PP-201.
Using inkjet coating technology, an ingenious application of
photosensitive materials, Canon has succeeded in separating ink
deposit layers by function. Where previously only one inkjet
coating layer was formed, this technology creates two distinct
layers, the color-reproduction layer and the absorbing layer.
Blacker Blacks
A deep, rich black is a black that looks truly black to the eye,
not grayish or bluish. Rich, deep blacks are not only important
for reproducing deep-black areas of photos. They also contribute
to the overall density, contrast and clarity of the photo. Light,
grayish blacks weaken the photo's impact, making it ordinary and
unimpressive. With Photo Paper Plus Glossy II PP-201, the dye is
fixed closer to the surface of the paper, ensuring rich, deep
blacks in printed photos.
Photos are beautifully reproduced because the dye is fixed close
to the surface of the paper.
The ink-receiving layer accepts the dyes in the ink and places
them on the surface of the paper. If this layer is too thick, the
dyes are scattered too sparsely, reducing color density and
producing washed-out, dull colors. If it is too thin, the water
in the ink can overflow the paper's surface, causing beading and
bleeding.
The newly added color-reproduction layer fixes the dye to the
paper's surface.
Photo Paper Plus Glossy II PP-201 solves this dilemma using
innovative inkjet coating technology. Using this technology, the
ink-receiving layer is split into two layers, a
color-reproduction layer on which the dye is fixed and an
absorbing layer that soaks up the excess water solvent.
This layered structure enables the dye to be fixed closer to the
surface of the paper, improving the density of the black ink
compared with Photo Paper Plus Glossy PP-101. This novel
technology achieves rich, deep blacks and bright, vivid
photographic results. At the same time, the absorbing layer
quickly mops up excess water solvent, for crisp, sharp image
quality.
Fuller, more vibrant color reproduction.
The wider the color gamut is, the more colors can be reproduced.
Across the entire gamut in both CMY and RGB, Photo Paper Plus
Glossy II PP-201 improves on the reproducible range of Photo
Paper Plus Glossy PP-101. This photo paper relays the full
expressive range of PIXMA for glorious color reproduction every
time.
Optical density immediately after printing is greater than ever.
See the real colors of your photos, right away.
With ordinary inkjet paper, the quality of the print fresh from
the printer is bit unclear, the colors dull. The colors emerge
only gradually, so you have to wait several minutes to find out
whether the print is faithful to the original image's color,
contrast and other features. If your family or friends are
waiting for finished prints, or if you're testing corrections to
the photos, the wait can seem an eternity.
Photo Paper Plus Glossy II PP-201 is a completely different
experience. The optical density (color density) is high
immediately after printing, and color reproduction happens fast.
In less time than ever, a reproduction of the colors of the
original photo is complete. Images are bright and vivid as soon
as the print job is finished.
