Let C*(E) = C*(se, pv) be the graph C*-algebra of a directed graph E = (E0, E1) with the vertices E0 and the edges E1. We prove that if E is a finite graph (possibly with sinks) and φE: C*(E) → C*(E) is the canonical completely positive map defined by then Voiculescu's topological entropy ht(φE) of φE is log r(AE), where r(AE) is the spectral radius of the edge matrix AE of E. This extends the same result known for finite graphs with no sinks. We also consider the map φE when E is a locally finite irreducible infinite graph and prove that , where the supremum is taken over the set of all finite subgraphs of E.
