The retained reference is $1,299.99 current U.S. direct sale price. Twelve 80 mL replacement tanks, paper, profiles, calibration, table depth, freight and tax are separate. Have the authorized seller confirm model, starter ink, current driver, included feeds, power, freight, installation, warranty and local service before payment.
Current market
Each line carries its own check date because price, software, specifications, and product cycle do not age at the same speed.
Twelve 80 mL replacement tanks, paper, profiles, calibration, table depth, freight and tax are separate. Confirm stock, promotion, authorized U.S. support, tax, freight, return terms and exact starter supplies.
PRO-1100 is defended for studios that need Canon's 17-inch Lucia PRO II sheet workflow, 80 mL tanks and air feed but do not need a built-in roll, cutter or cut-sheet cassette.

What changed
Older observations stay in the ledger when the current view changes. That lets a buyer tell the difference between an old complaint, an active issue, and a problem that was corrected.
imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 was checked against manufacturer identity, exact current U.S. price, manual and support, independent model-focused evidence and bounded owner evidence.
Each amount stays tied to its source and capture date. Conflicting prices remain visible until the seller resolves them.

Owner experience
Owner evidence is retained as a media, profile, driver, maintenance, consumable and service checklist for imagePROGRAF PRO-1100, not an output, permanence, clog or reliability rate.
Reports are self-selected and span different files, displays, profiles, papers, inks, firmware, drivers, RIPs, print frequency, humidity, cleaning, storage, framing, lighting, networks and service regions. They cannot prove population color accuracy, matching, clogging, consumption, fade, durability, uptime, failure or repair outcomes.Self-selected exact-model owners discuss paper loading, feed marks, ICC profiles, driver behavior, color casts, head alignment, nozzle checks, cleaning cycles, clogs, ink waste, cartridge or tank cost, borderless expansion, network setup and service. Files, displays, profiles, media, humidity, duty cycles, storage, firmware, operating systems and support regions differ, so reports do not establish output accuracy, permanence, failure or repair rates.
Use it as the Canon 17-inch sheet benchmark after confirming that the studio does not need built-in roll or cassette production handling

Canon identifies 6856C002 as a 17-inch desktop fine-art printer with eleven Lucia PRO II pigment colors and Chroma Optimizer. Rear and manual feeds handle supported sheets and borderless sizes to 17 by 22 inches plus documented long custom media; it has no roll path. Air feeding, skew correction and thick-stock support remain dependent on exact settings and flat media
Exact 6856C002 under Canon's August 2026 U.S. promotion. Twelve 80 mL replacement tanks, paper, profiles, calibration, table depth, freight and tax are separate
Rear and manual feeds handle supported sheets and borderless sizes to 17 by 22 inches plus documented long custom media; it has no roll path. Air feeding, skew correction and thick-stock support remain dependent on exact settings and flat media Eleven Lucia PRO II pigment colors plus Chroma Optimizer occupy twelve 80 mL tanks, including dedicated Matte Black and Photo Black. There is no manual black swap, but output gamut, gloss and ink use remain paper and profile dependent The roughly 71-pound chassis needs a stable surface and safe two-person handling; preserve all media clearances, use grounded power and follow ink, head, jam and internal-moving-part instructions
USB, Ethernet and Wi-Fi support Canon's driver, Professional Print & Layout, AirPrint and Mopria. Verify current OS, plug-in and profile compatibility, and manage color once; cloud or camera integration is optional, not required for local output Inspect nozzles, alignment, air-feed behavior and paper registration, follow documented cleaning and cost twelve tanks plus head and service exposure. Backup nozzles and anti-clogging design do not guarantee clean output or uptime
Imaging Resource used and evaluated the exact PRO-1100, its inks, software, paper handling and output while separating observed prints from Canon's specifications.
Self-selected exact-model owners discuss paper loading, feed marks, ICC profiles, driver behavior, color casts, head alignment, nozzle checks, cleaning cycles, clogs, ink waste, cartridge or tank cost, borderless expansion, network setup and service. Files, displays, profiles, media, humidity, duty cycles, storage, firmware, operating systems and support regions differ, so reports do not establish output accuracy, permanence, failure or repair rates.
RTINGS publishes structured printer measurements covering photo gamut and accuracy, fine detail, supported sizes, speed, yield, cost, clog risk, recovery, connectivity and operating-system support. Results remain conditional on its files, media and methods.
Independent accelerated display and storage testing is specific to printer, ink, paper, enclosure and exposure conditions. Ratings are comparative laboratory estimates rather than a guarantee for a buyer's print, coating, handling or environment.
