Canon Hong Kong's specifications list 300 x 300 dpi resolution with 256 shades per colour, a postcard-size print in approximately 41 seconds and a card-size print in approximately 23 seconds. All figures below follow Canon Hong Kong's own page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDye-sublimation with overcoating\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print method is dye-sublimation thermal transfer with an overcoat layer. Unlike inkjet, each colour is transferred in turn and then sealed with a protective film, which gives an even surface finish. Resolution is 300 x 300 dpi with 256 shades per colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSupported print sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePostcard borderless 100.0 x 148.0 mm, postcard bordered 91.3 x 121.7 mm, card borderless 54.0 x 86.0 mm, card bordered 49.9 x 66.6 mm, 8-label card at 22.0 x 17.3 mm per label, and square labels at 50 x 50 mm.
