Canon i990 Printer Coming Soon
This news has been around for a couple of days but I completely missed it 
There’s a brand new, top-of-the-range A4 Canon printer on the way. It hasn’t been officially announced by Canon yet, but the Canon Bubble Jet i990 printer has its very own webpage on the Canon Europe website. It features the new 7-ink ChromaPLUS photo system, which Canon claims will “Bring enhanced depth and warmth to all your photo prints with Canon’s exclusive 7-ink ChromaPLUS photo system. An additional red ink greatly expands the colour spectrum, giving images more intensity. This enables the printer to achieve a colour range comparable to positive film.” The i990 also has a new high-density print head with a mere 5,376 nozzles.

One thing that pop into my head after reading the new printer specs. Canon still feels print longevity is not important.

I agree - the i990 seems to be very similar to the new Epson R800, with the exception of that all-important print longevity (important for some people anyway).

red?? How about surprising us with a mid grey & light grey for a change...
I suppose photo cyan and photo magenta are light versions of regular inks?

re: longevity
I guess they expect users to print regularly over and over since they still have intact originals

And where's the replacement for the i9100? The i950 has better print quality than the i9100, although they came out about the same time. Then the i950 was replaced with the i960 (i965? I don't remember the exact number). Still no replacement for the i9100. Now there's the i990 and *still* no replacement for the i9100.
Is Canon giving up on the wide-format printer market? Maybe few people buy the wide-format Canon printers due to the longevity differential with Epson?
