The Canon imagePROGRAF TX-4200 MFP Z36 44-inch printer and scanner (imagePROGRAF TX-4200 MFP Z36 with stacker) combines a production CAD plotter with an integrated Z36 large-format scanner and 15.6-inch touchscreen controller. This stacker package is built for architecture, engineering, construction, GIS, reprographics, and facilities teams that need to print, scan, copy, and share technical documents from one workstation.
What This Canon TX Printer Does
The imagePROGRAF TX platform is designed for high-volume wide-format technical printing. Automatic media loading and media detection help simplify roll setup, while a hot-swap ink system, printhead monitoring, color calibration, and automatic adjustments support day-to-day production. Canon rates the printer at up to 3.3 ANSI D-size prints per minute in Fast Q5 mode on plain paper, measured after the first print; real throughput varies with media, mode, page content, and workflow.
Five-Color LUCIA TD Pigment Ink and Print Quality
The printer uses five pigment inks: matte black (MBK), black (BK), cyan, magenta, and yellow. Canon lists a PF-06 printhead, 5-picoliter droplets, maximum print resolution of 2400 × 1200 dpi, 5,120 matte-black nozzles and 2,560 nozzles for each other color. The specifications include line accuracy of ±0.1% or less after the required user adjustment under matching conditions, and a theoretical minimum line weight of 0.02 mm. These capabilities are suited to fine CAD line work, clear annotations, maps, and full-color posters. Canon describes water-resistant output on compatible media; water resistance does not mean waterproofing.
Selected Output Option: TX Stacker
This listing is for the imagePROGRAF TX-4200 MFP Z36 with stacker package. It includes the TX Stacker. The TX Stacker and multi-positional catch basket are alternative output configurations, so this SKU is specifically matched to the option named above. The approximate printer footprint and weight with this output option are 62.7 × 46.8 × 46 in with stacker open; 62.7 × 44.2 × 46 in closed, approx. 317 lb. Plan additional clearance for loading rolls, retrieving prints, and opening the output accessory.
Z36 Scanner, Copying, and Touchscreen Controller
The included Canon Z36 is a single-sensor CIS scanner with a 36-inch maximum scan width (38-inch document/media width), 1200 dpi optical resolution, and support for originals from 6 inches wide and 0.07–1.0 mm thick. Canon lists up to 13 inches per second for 8-bit grayscale/monochrome scanning at 200 dpi, 3 inches per second for 24-bit color scan-to-PC, and 6 inches per second for color copying. Maximum scan length depends on file type: up to 164 ft for PDF, 315 inches for JPEG, and 598 inches for TIFF. Actual scan time depends on resolution, document, host, and interface.
The 15.6-inch multi-touch system controller runs the SmartWorks MFP workflow for scan-to-copy, scan-to-file, and scan-to-email, with a real-time image viewer and TIFF, JPEG, and PDF support. Canon specifies a 256 GB SSD, 8 GB DDR4 memory, USB ports, and Gigabit Ethernet for the controller. Canon describes the MFP workflow as allowing printing and scanning simultaneously.
