Features at a glance

Canon TM-255 24-inch CAD and Poster Plotter

Fast, precise, professional-quality large format printing built for CAD, drawings, and marketing materials alike.
The Canon ImagePrograf TM-255 is a 24″ large format printer built for organizations that need sharp, professional output at speed. It prints an A1 poster in as little as 22 seconds and an A0 poster in 20 seconds, output speeds that make short work of high-volume CAD and drawing office printing, while its 5-colour pigment ink system delivers the accuracy needed for technical line work as well as the vibrancy needed for eye-catching marketing materials.
Where large format printing often means choosing between speed and quality, the TM-255 is engineered to deliver both, making it a practical fit for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) offices, retailers, and educational institutions that need reliable, fast, professional-grade prints on demand.

The service team and support were fantastic in dealing with my machine even though it’s definitely a much older model

Great to see some places still doing honest business. I recently sourced an inverter for my small business from Oxbow and was amazed at how much care and consideration they gave to my purchase. I had a salesperson on site for assessment and within a week had my inverter installed and functioning perfectly. Very impressed with their service and urgency.

We recently upgraded to a Fujifilm C750 through Oxbow and the improvement in print quality has been noticeable immediately. Their technician handled everything from delivery to network setup and even configured scan-to-email for the whole team. What stood out was how smoothly the transition happened without any downtime.

We chose a Fujifilm device through Oxbow after comparing a few options. Their consultant gave us honest advice based on our usage rather than pushing the most expensive option. The machine has performed well so far. Appreciate the transparency.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is dpi and ppm?

Dots Per Inch (DPI) measures Print Resolution, where higher values produce sharper, more detailed output. This matters more for graphics and marketing material than it does for everyday documents. Pages per minute (PPM) measures output speed under normal working conditions, and selecting outputs that are too slow causes bottlenecks. Oxbow’s team will assess your actual print volumes and output requirements to make sure the device we recommend hits the right benchmarks for your environment, not just on paper, but in practice.

A Printer outputs documents. An MFP Prints, Scans, Copies, and in many cases, Faxes all from one device. For most businesses, the MFP is the practical default: it consolidates hardware, reduces desk footprint, and integrates with cloud storage and document management platforms. Oxbow’s certified specialists can assess your environment and workflows and recommend the right device for your output demands, team size, and budget so you get the capability you need without paying for what you don’t.

A Managed Print Service is a contract arrangement where Oxbow takes full responsibility for your Printing Environment: Hardware, Consumables, Maintenance, and Support, all under one agreement. Instead of reactive repairs and toner orders, everything is monitored and managed proactively. The result is predictable monthly costs and a Printing Environment that runs without requiring internal resources to maintain it.

Yes. In most cases printing from a smartphone or tablet is straightforward, provided your network is configured correctly. When Oxbow installs your device, our technicians will ensure mobile printing is set up and working from day one. And if you run into any issues down the line, our support team is on hand to troubleshoot and get you back up and running quickly.

Your device will display a low toner warning on the control panel, typically showing a percentage remaining. Clients on an MPS contract will have toner automatically reordered. Toner can be easily reordered from our in-house consumables department.

Our dedicated support team will respond to any service queries within a maximum of 4 hours (during office hours), with a technician dispatched instantly should the query require on-site assistance. Just over 10% of queries can be solved remotely, while on-site support averages at 30 to 45 minutes for a complete fix.
