Canon has announced the addition of five Pixma printers with a new Full High Definition Movie Print feature.

In addition to this technology, the new models will feature improvements to Auto Photo Fix II to further enhance photographs while Easy-PhotoPrint EX software now allows users to search and use images from Flickr.
