Dye sublimation printing technology and Canon’s high performance DIGIC II image processor, with iSAPS combine to deliver photolab quality colour prints that are long lasting and durable, with 100 years light fastness². Weighing just 850g and with a footprint barely larger than the prints it creates, the stylishly finished SELPHY CP600 is capable of producing both borderless and bordered prints.
Better control
The printer itself is the first ever to incorporate Canon’s renowned DIGIC II image processing engine. The power of DIGIC II not only produces super fast print speeds, it also allows for new processes to be incorporated which drive markedly improved image quality.
Total control
Dye sublimation printers work by heating ‘pixels’ on the print head to varying degrees, which in turn determines the amount of ink sublimated into the paper’s special coating. By taking into account data from neighbouring pixels and the thermal history of the pixel being heated, Canon has been able to gain far more precise control over the print head, This improves gradation reproduction and delivers sharper dot printing, for an overall improvement in sharpness and contrast range.

Photolab quality

This enables Canon's dye-sublimation printer to generate up to 16.8 million colours. Prints are finished with a durable, high-gloss, protective layer to guard against everyday splashes, spills and sticky fingers. This printing process produces grain free prints with smooth tones, high colour fidelity and a 100-year lifespan¹ that rival silver halide quality and longevity.
