HP Debuts Latex 2700 Range

HP has today announced new solutions to help Print Service Providers (PSPs) meet high levels of demand, optimise work processes and grow their businesses by delivering innovative applications.

The new 3.2m wide HP Latex 2700 printers take production efficiency to the next level, offering vivid colours at up to 89 m2/ hr via symmetrical double printheads, which come equipped with automatic printhead cleaning technology. Users can take on high-margin jobs with 30 percent wider gamut at high speed, preserving media gloss and feel across a range of signage and décor applications, including thin films, vinyl and paper.

The HP Latex 2700W printers offer the whitest white ink on the market at speeds of up to 54 m2/hr, allowing PSPs to produce high-margin applications on pre-coloured and transparent media. Automatic ink recirculation and white printheads that can be stored in an offline rotating chamber eliminates waste between white jobs. All devices in the Latex 2700 series run on fourth generation HP Latex ink, bringing UL ECOLOGO certification, while also meeting UL GREENGUARD GOLD and Toy Safety requirements. The whole portfolio also takes HP EcoCarton - cardboard-based ink cartridges that reduce plastic by using 100 percent recycled and recyclable cardboard containers, as well as recycled plastics from HP’s closed-loop recycling process, including postconsumer beverage bottles and U-validated oceanbound plastics.

PSPs have a choice of two different HP professional print service plans – Basic and Plus – with each containing a portfolio of service and software solutions tailored to business needs.
