The new HP Designjet T Printer series, which includes the HP Designjet T610 and T1100 Printer series

Last June Alistair Wright and Ian Stapleton attended the launch in Rome of the latest range of HP Designjets which included the new Designjet T610 and the Designjet T1100.

We have been waiting for HP to respond to the Canon imagePROGRAF range and at last HP have something to shout about!

The new HP Designjet T Printer series, which includes the HP Designjet T610 and T1100 Printer series, set a new standard of print quality with its three-black ink set, including grey ink, and HP Vivera inks, delivering exacting detail, a wider range of colours and hard-to-achieve tone reproduction. The HP Designjet T Printer series builds upon the proven reliability of HP large-format printers by adding enhanced compatibility and dependability delivered by HP-GL/2 and in-printer processing architecture. These printers can print an A1/D page in 35 seconds enabling project print speeds up to three times faster than the previous printer, the HP Designjet 800 series.

This new range from HP is perfect for CAD, AEC, GIS professionals.

Available in 610 mm and 1118 mm models, the HP Designjet T Printer series features the three-black ink set which produces true neutral greys, enabling enhanced detail and hard-to-achieve tones. HP Vivera inks produce images with even, subtle contrast from vivid colour to soft tones. And with HP’s innovative print head design, the printing system produces pinpoint line accuracy and crisp text with improved line accuracy at 0.1 % and 0.0423 mm minimum line width, allowing CAD and GIS professionals to produce standout drawings and presentations with better readability.

In addition, the HP Designjet T Printer series offers remarkable compatibility with CAD and GIS applications thanks to embedded industry standard HP-GL/2 language. HP has partnered with key companies to ensure HP Designjet T Printer series users have connectivity and software compatibility with the industry’s major CAD and GIS applications needed to produce high-quality prints. The HP Designjet T Printer series’ in-printer processing architecture enables quick, efficient processing of files in the printer – no matter what the complexity – without tying up workstation or requiring powerful networks and computer devices.

The HP Designjet T1100 Printer series, including the HP Designjet T1100, T1100ps and T1100MFP, is ideal for CAD and GIS work groups who need to efficiently share a printer among multiple users in a network environment. The HP Designjet T1100ps is uniquely designed for applications with PDF and PostScript workflows. The HP Designjet T1100MFP brings together features of the HP Designjet T1100ps 1118 mm printer and complete scan and copy functionality in high resolutions delivering precise and detailed scans and output.

Ideal for the CAD and GIS professionals who require convenient printing in-house, the HP Designjet T610 is perfect for personal use in smaller offices and studio environments.
