Make your photos last
ChromaLife100 is a system that preserves the lasting beauty of your photographs with a combination of genuine Canon cartridges products: your PIXMA printer, ink and photo paper.
The world is a harsh environment for photos. Light, heat, humidity and gases in the air can all cause photos to fade over time, whether they are silver halide photos or inkjet photos. Canon has developed ChromaLife100 ink cartridges to help inkjet photos withstand environmental conditions for longer.
ChromaLife100 is a system in which photo paper, inks and print head work together to produce long-lasting, beautiful photos.
The result
- 100-year album life
- 30-year light fastness
- 10-year gas fastness
- Resisting heat and humidity
Print head: Speed and quality
All PIXMA printers use Canon's exclusive FINE print head technology. Microscopic nozzles fire off tiny micro-droplets with pinpoint accuracy. Smaller nozzles mean more of them can be packed onto the print head, so higher speeds can be reached with no compromise in quality.
Photo paper: Instant dry
The FINE print head is so quick you need paper that can keep up with it. Genuine Canon photo papers have a micro-porous coating that quickly absorbs ink deep below the surface ' away from the gases and light that cause fading. So you get quick-dry, colour-fast, glossy photos that can last a lifetime.
Inks: For rich, accurate colours
FINE micro-nozzles need exceptionally pure ink to avoid clogging. All genuine Canon inks are manufactured in a controlled, dust-free environment. They are specially formulated to resist the gases in the air that cause fading. High optical density ensures a wide and accurate colour gamut.
