What the Canon TX-3310 Is Built For
The TX-3310 is part of Canon’s newest imagePROGRAF TX series, the production tier above the TM line, built for architecture, engineering and construction firms, GIS departments and reprographics shops printing large volumes of plans and maps. It replaces the TX-3200 with Canon’s newly formulated matte black for sharper fine lines and small text.
Production Speed and Line Quality
Canon rates the TX-3310 at up to 3.3 ANSI D-size prints per minute in Fast Q5 mode on plain paper. A PF-06 printhead with 15,360 nozzles and 5-picoliter droplets prints at up to 2400 x 1200 dpi, with line accuracy of plus or minus 0.1% and a minimum line weight of 0.02 mm, which is what CAD and GIS work needs for scale-accurate output.
The L-COA PRO controller, 128 GB virtual memory and 256 GB encrypted drive process heavy PDF, HP-GL/2 and CALS files on the printer so the network and workstations stay free.
Z36 Scanner and 15.6-Inch Controller
The Canon Z36 scanner adds 36-inch scanning at up to 13 inches per second in monochrome and 6 inches per second in color, with 1200 dpi optical resolution. A 15.6-inch touchscreen controller running SmartWorks MFP previews every scan and lets operators adjust color, brightness and skew before copying, filing or emailing.
The scanner runs independently of the printer, so one person can scan a drawing set while the TX-3310 keeps printing.
TX Stacker and Second-Roll Option
This configuration includes the TX Stacker, which collects finished prints flat or folded in order and keeps long CAD runs organized without a person standing at the printer. Rolls up to 6.7 inches in diameter load from the front on 2-inch cores, with 3-inch adapters included. For two rolls or a take-up reel, add the optional RU-34 Multifunction Roll Unit.
Security and Network Printing
The encrypted drive, secure erase, PIN-protected secure printing and encrypted communication help protect drawings and client files. Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Hi-Speed USB and USB flash drive printing are built in, along with Apple AirPrint, Mopria and IPP Everywhere support.

Ink and Replacement Parts
Black, cyan and yellow use the same PFI-110 (160 mL), PFI-310 (330 mL) and PFI-710 (700 mL) tanks as the earlier TX printers, including PFI-110 Black, PFI-110 Cyan, PFI-110 Yellow, PFI-310 Black, PFI-310 Cyan and PFI-310 Yellow. The TX-3310 adds new tanks for two colors: PFI-111, PFI-311 and PFI-711 for magenta, and PFI-113, PFI-313 and PFI-713 for the reformulated matte black. Older TX magenta and matte black tanks are not the right parts for this printer, so order by part number. Browse every tank in our Canon ink catalog.
The PF-06 printhead, MC-30 maintenance cartridge and CT-07 cutter blade are user replaceable, so routine maintenance does not need a service call.

Check Before Ordering
- Doorways and hallways: the palletized printer package is about 62.9 x 35.5 x 44.2 in.
- Floor space: about 54.7 x 46.8 x 46 in (W x D x H) with stacker open; 44.2 in deep closed (printer).
- Power: a standard AC 100 to 240 V outlet near the printer, plus outlets for the scanner and controller.
- Network: an Ethernet drop or Wi-Fi coverage at the install spot.
- Ink: order a set of replacement tanks with the printer so a long job never stops on the starter set.
