The New Canon imagePROGRAF Photo printer

Canon introduceert per 1 april 2010 de nieuwe professionele printers in de imagePROGRAF-serie. De iPF8300 print tot 44-inch breed, de iPF6350 en iPF6300 kunnen overweg met papierrollen van 24-inch. De nieuwe grootformaatprinters zijn voorzien van Canons 12-kleuren Lucia EX-inktsysteem op pigmentbasis. Deze printers leveren hogere nauwkeurigheid en groter kleurbereik, om aan te sluiten bij de eisen van professionele gebruikers. Groter kleurenspectrum De iPF8300, iPF6350 en iPF6300 zijn in staat om een kleurenspectrum te produceren dat circa 20 procent groter is dan hun voorgangers in de imagePROGRAF iPFx100-serie. Het nieuwe inktsysteem maakt het mogelijk om te printen met hogere densiteit, voller zwart en betere kleurgradaties. Ook details in schaduwpartijen worden beter gereproduceerd worden met de nieuwe printers. Neem contact met mij op als je meer wilt weten over deze Printers. Printmaterialen Het aanbod aan printmaterialen voor grootformaatprinters groeit, Canon springt daar op in met een nieuwe Media Configuration Tool. Met dit stukje gereedschap kunnen papierinstellingen toegevoegd worden voor nieuwe materialen. Niet alleen papier van Canon, maar ook materiaal van derden kan zo uitgebreid geconfigureerd worden.

What is the Best Juicer to Buy?

People are always trying to figure out what the best juicer is. In my eyes, there is no one perfect juicer out there. However, there is such a thing as the best juicer for you! The way I see it, the best juicer for you is the juicer that is going to make you want to juice every day. And of course, that's going to vary from person to person. But not to worry, I've outlined a few different aspects you should look for to when trying to find that perfect juicer for you!

Centrifugal Juicers

If you are just getting into juicing and you don't want to dedicate very much time to it, you should probably look at a centrifugal juicer. They juice at very high speeds and their parts can be easily thrown into the dishwasher.  Quick juice, quick clean up. These are great machines, but they do have some downfalls. They work very well with hard fruits and veggies but they don't work very well with leafy greens or wheatgrass. Additionally, the high speeds that they operate at can help encourage the loss of valuable enzymes and nutrients. However, these juicers still produce healthier juice than you can buy in a grocery store. Therefore, if you aren't interested in leafy greens and you don't need to have the healthiest juice possible, get a centrifugal juicer. You'll love it!

Mastication Juicers

If you are a bit more serious about the nutritional value of your juice, or you want to be able to juice leafy greens, you should be looking at a mastication juicer. They're not all meant for wheatgrass so if you'd like to juice wheatgrass often, make sure you get a wheatgrass juicer. They come in every variety of mastication juicer. Mastication juicers require a bit more time than centrifugal juicers but they produce healthier juice and can be used as a food processor. They come in a few different variations:

Single Gear

Mastication juicers can either have one gear that chews at fruit or two. Single gear juicers tend to have a lower RPM, but the juicing process itself is faster. This is because there is only one gear to slow the produce from passing through the chamber so it gets sent through the machine more quickly. Downfall: a slightly lower extraction rate. However, the number of gears does not change the juice quality. Therefore, if you are looking for a healthy juicer but you'd like a relatively quick juicing process, this is a great type of juicer for you!

Twin Gear

Twin gear simply means there will be two augers chewing at your produce to extract juice. These juicers produce a very high yield of juice from whatever is sent through them. The tradeoff is that the higher yield usually means a slightly slower process. However, if you are passionate about juicing and you don't mind spending that little bit of extra time juicing, this is the perfect option for you!

Cold-Press

Cold-Press Masticating juicers have motors that run at a speed between 80 RPMs and 200 RPMs. This range of speed ensures that nutritional enzymes aren't lost to unnecessary oxidation, which is encouraged when juice heats up. In other words, it means the motor is spinning slow enough to make sure the juice doesn't get heated because when juice gets heated, enzymes escape. A definite must for all health nuts! Only downside: longer juicing process because of slow speeds.

Price Range

Juicers come in all different shapes and sizes so you can probably find one to suit your price range. As a general rule of thumb though, the more expensive the juicer, the longer it will last and the more it can handle (and very often, the longer the warranty). If you would actually like to begin juicing, consider it an investment. If you buy yourself a cheap juicer that clogs all the time and falls apart, you'll feel as though you've wasted your money and you will find yourself feeling bitter towards juicing. However, if you really want to juice and you do your research and find yourself that perfect juicer to suit your juicing needs, you'll be so happy you spent the extra time and money that you'll never stop juicing!

Episode 27

Padmini's homecoming is marked with customary rituals. Aamir Khusro is visiting Allaudin Khilji to tell him that the Kohinoor continues to remain missing. On learning this, Khilji orders his henchmen to search for it in the living quarters of all of his deceased brother's wives. Ratnasen is telling his mother that Padmini is now the daughter-in-law of their household and needs much love and support from her to settle in her new surroundings. Ratnasen's mother reminds him that even though Padmini is his new wife, he owes prime allegiance to Nagmati. Alaudin Khilji's mistress approaches him to bring in his notice the derogatory doings of his henchman. What are the henchman's secret motives behind searching her room? Will Padmini be accepted as the new Princess of Chittorgarh? - Keep watching to find out! 700 years ago in India lived an extraordinary woman. Acclaimed as the most beautiful Indian woman ever, she defied the most powerful ruler of her time to save her husband and chose to fight and sacrifice all for honour rather than submit to tyranny. Ideal of every woman, dream of every man.. her legend lives on. Mounted on a scale never seen before on Indian television and created by the man who symbolizes grandness on Indian screens - Nitin Desai, it is a dazzling combination of visual extravaganza and extraordinary storytelling.
