Canon Colorado M-Series: Unleashing New Print Possibilities

Canon’s Colorado M-series has always stood out for its modular architecture and UVgel performance. But since the enhancements like FLXture, a jumbo roll interface kit, and expanded upgrade paths, it’s no longer just modular, it’s a platform of opportunity. Whether you already own an M-series or you’re considering adding one, these upgrades expand what’s possible for your print business.

FLXfinish+ and FLXture: Elevating Print Beyond the Surface

The Colorado M-series isn’t just fast and precise- it’s redefining how texture and finish are created.

FLXfinish+ brings the unique ability to print matte, gloss, or mixed matte-and-gloss effects in a single pass without changing ink or media. This feature lets you produce striking contrast, depth, and visual sophistication in one effortless go. It’s a true game-changer for premium signage, brand displays, and interior décor.

Building on that, FLXture introduces micro-textured printing with layered ink, allowing you to add subtle tactile detail, like leather grain, fabric weave, or wood texture, directly within your print. This feature creates a luxurious, dimensional feel without extra coatings or post-processing.

Why it stands out: You get both finish and feel control at the print level- no embossing, laminates, or specialty media required.

Jumbo Roll Interface Kit: Go Big with Confidence

With the Jumbo Roll Interface Kit, you can load larger transparent, metallic, structured, or dark media rolls and run extended, unattended jobs without constant roll changes. For high-volume runs, this means more productivity, fewer interruptions, and a smoother path to wrap-around graphics or architectural media.

Why it matters: Reduces downtime and media swaps during long prints, perfect for continuous jobs like building wraps or long-format graphics.

Wider Application Range = More Creative Freedom

The M-series also opens the door to an expanded media portfolio, empowering you to print on textured, transparent, colored, reflective, and even magnetic materials. With this flexibility, designers and print providers can create everything from bold retail signage to custom décor and promotional pieces that truly stand out.

Modular Upgrades: Grow at Your Pace

The M-series remains unique in its ability to scale. Start with an M3 BASE and upgrade in the field to M5W PRO unlocking features like white ink, dual-roll, high-speed modes, or FLXfinish+. This flexibility means you don’t have to over-invest early.

Why it matters: Align your investment with demand, start simple and expand as your business grows.

Applications That Benefit

• Architectural & Décor Projects: Use FLXture to produce backlit walls, feature panels, or textured surfaces that command attention.

• Large-Format Advertising & Wraps: The Jumbo Roll kit supports long-span graphics with fewer seams and less interruption.

• Creative Branding & Retail Displays: Combine FLXfinish+ gloss/matte contrast with expanded media options for stunning visual effects.

• Upgradable Deployment: Scale up to the PRO configuration during busy periods, then reconfigure later as needed.

These enhancements transform the Canon Colorado M-series from a flexible printer into a future-proof creative platform. Whether you're producing décor, architectural visuals, wraps, or premium graphics, these innovations give you more creative control, higher throughput, and smarter scalability.
