    Colour Copying & Printing

We have three colour copier/printers, enabling high speed copying of your originals or high speed printing of your disk files. We can download photographs from your digital camera and send them straight to the printer. Two of the copiers, the Canon C1 and the Canon iR7055, are capable of detecting if a job has a combination of colour and black & white pages, and printing them correctly "colour for colour".

Black & White Copying

Of course one of the main things we do is black & white copying. These days, the equipment we use is capable of a multiplicity of operations. Once a job has been copied, it can be stapled, folded or made into a booklet without ever taking it out of the copier. Or we can punch holes in your job for insertion in a ring binder. Cover sheets can be added, blank pages inserted, and books assembled. All the copiers are on line, and can be controlled from the computers so that they act as printers. Jobs can be stored in the copiers so that all the operator has to do is recall the job from the inbuilt mailbox and reprint as required.
Binding

We do plastic spiral, plastic comb, wire, fastback (heat-glued) plus other types of binding.
Plan Printing

At Cairns Plan Printing we originally got our name because we were the first to carry out plan printing. We still lead the field, with two dedicated black & white plan printers. The department has two KIP plan printers, and a wide format colour scanner for scanning large (huge!) documents. We even scanned a wall in half-scale once, then printed it out in full size...
Art Reproduction & Photo Printing

Cairns Plan Printing has been supplying high quality art reproductions to local artists in the Far North for some time, and has justly earned a reputation for colour accuracy. Capable of printing on artist's canvas, rag fine art paper, watercolour paper and several other media, we also produced the flag carried by Paul Hockey to the top of Mount Everest. We have recently introduced a Canon iPF9100 12-colour 60" wide high performance wide format inkjet, taking over from the Roland FJ-52 which served us faithfully for the best part of 9 years. The Canon iPF9100 is supplemented by a Canon 8400, and both are capable of turning out colour-accurate high quality prints in a very short time.
