Canon India has announced the launch of the imagePRESS V770, a new color production printer aimed at print-for-pay providers and production jobbers in India.
The company said the printer has been developed for commercial print environments that require high output quality, media flexibility and operational efficiency within compact production spaces.
According to Canon India, the imagePRESS V770 is designed to support a broad range of applications, including marketing materials, menus, labels and synthetic media. The company added that the system is intended to help print providers manage short-run jobs and quick turnaround requirements while maintaining output consistency.
The printer delivers speeds of up to 81 pages per minute (ppm) on plain and thick media ranging from 52 gsm to 220 gsm, and up to 77 ppm on coated media between 70 gsm and 180 gsm. It also supports printing on media up to 350 gsm on coated and uncoated substrates, including textured and synthetic materials.
Speaking on the launch, Toshiaki Nomura, president & CEO, Canon India, said, “Across India’s print industry, we are seeing a clear shift in customer expectations towards shorter runs, faster turnaround, greater flexibility, and consistent quality across a wider range of applications. The imagePRESS V770 has been developed with these requirements at its core, as part of our ‘Made for India’ approach bringing global engineering with local insight to build solutions closely aligned with market needs. It helps print businesses take on high-mix work confidently, without trading off speed, consistency, or footprint. With the V770, we are reinforcing our commitment to enabling the next phase of growth for India’s print entrepreneurs and production print providers.”
Puneet Datta, senior director, Commercial & Industrial Printing, Canon India, said, “The imagePRESS V770 has been developed with a clear understanding of what India’s jobbers and print-for-pay providers need most: reliable production, media flexibility, and consistent colour—job after job. With up to 77 ppm on coated media, and innovations like the integrated air-assist tray for continuous coated paper feeding, the V770 is designed to keep jobs moving with fewer interruptions. Its compact design and stable paper handling make it well-suited for space-constrained environments. A major step forward is bringing Canon’s proven PRISMAsync workflow directly into the press, so scheduling, colour control and production management are simpler and more predictable. Combined with enhanced colour reproduction and improved durability across applications, the V770 enables providers expand into more applications, with confidence.”
Canon said the imagePRESS V770 incorporates a newly designed air-assisted stack bypass system capable of handling up to 250 sheets of coated media, aimed at improving feeding stability and reducing interruptions during print runs.
The company also introduced several image quality enhancements, including updated color profiles for improved red and blue reproduction, a scratch-resistant mode for labels and synthetic media, and a new 200-line screen option intended to improve gradation smoothness and reduce moiré effects.
In addition, the printer includes Canon’s PRISMAsync LITE workflow platform, an integrated production management and workflow solution designed to simplify scheduling, color management and device monitoring without requiring external controllers.
Canon India said the launch expands its production printing portfolio by positioning the imagePRESS V770 between entry-level production devices and higher-end digital presses, targeting print businesses seeking scalable and efficient production capabilities.
