A New Printer from The Canon stables..

[Ink stained Fingers]

roll paper - vacuum paper fixation - you are asking for features found in the Epson Pro 4880 and similar, Epson needs some features to differentiate against the 3880 models . An Epson piezo printhead can shoot several different droplet sizes , a thermal printhead cannot , Canon therefore uses separate nozzle rows for different droplet sizes , that is driving up the total nozzle number , even more with more inks.

Having a 12ink monster and without possibility to print panoramas when EPSON R2000/R3000 has roll paper support seems stupid at best.
