What the Canon TX-1300 Is Built For
The TX-1300 MFP Z36 is a 36-inch print, scan and copy system for offices and reprographics rooms that handle large drawing sets every day. It combines a compact 36-inch printer that uses the same ink as Canon’s newest TM series with the Canon Z36 scanner and a 15.6-inch touchscreen controller, so teams can digitize, mark up and reprint plans from one station. If you only need printing, compare the TM-350 and the new TM-610.
Five-Color LUCIA TD Pigment Ink
Five pigment inks, including a newly formulated matte black, run through one PF-06 printhead with 15,360 nozzles and 5-picoliter droplets. Canon rates the printer at up to 3.2 D-size prints per minute, and the 128 GB virtual memory and 256 GB drive let it queue large CAD files and multi-sheet jobs without slowing the network.
Z36 Scanner and 15.6-Inch Controller
The Canon Z36 scanner reads originals up to 36 inches wide (38-inch media) at up to 13 inches per second in monochrome and 6 inches per second in color, with 1200 dpi optical resolution and plus or minus 0.1% accuracy. SmartWorks MFP software on the 15.6-inch controller previews every scan in real time so operators can fix color, brightness or skew before saving or copying.
Scans save as TIFF, JPEG or multi-page PDF and can be copied, filed or emailed straight from the controller, which keeps blueprint and as-built archiving simple.
Media Handling and Output
One top-loading roll feeds from 8 to 36 inches wide with automatic media detection and an automatic rotary cutter. Finished prints land in the flat stacking basket, and a 2-inch roll holder with 3-inch core adapters is included.

Ink and Replacement Parts
Replacement ink comes in 130 mL and 300 mL tanks: PFI-123 Matte Black, PFI-120 Black, PFI-120 Cyan, PFI-121 Magenta and PFI-120 Yellow, or the high-capacity PFI-323 Matte Black, PFI-320 Black, PFI-320 Cyan, PFI-321 Magenta and PFI-320 Yellow. Matte black and magenta use the newer PFI-123 / PFI-323 and PFI-121 / PFI-321 tanks, so check the part number before ordering. All tanks are in our Canon ink catalog.
The PF-06 printhead, MC-31 maintenance cartridge and CT-08 cutter blade are user replaceable, so routine maintenance does not need a service call.

- Floor space: about 50.6 x 34.8 x 41.7 in (W x D x H) with basket open; 30.7 in deep closed (printer only).
- 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.
