Canon has introduced a new portable PIXMA into its photo printer range, the iP100.Aimed at both business-people on the road and home users, the compact iP100 has Canon's enhanced FINE print head and new five colour ink system to claim to offer exceptional portable print quality, with sharp text and photo lab quality prints.
