Xerox c o n t i n u e d f r o m pag e 23 Hewlett-Packard HP recently introduced the HP Latex 110 Printer, which is ideal for “print-preneur” customers seeking easy, affordable entry into large-format printing to jump-start a new printing business – whether from their home or a small, rented facility, said Joe Goicoe- chea, category manager, Americas Large Format Production, HP. Now available in the U.S. and Canada, the 54-inch printer is ideal for low-volume production of indoor and outdoor large-for- mat applications, such as vinyl, stickers, posters, canvas and point-of-purchase signage. It is also the first HP Latex printer that can be installed by the user. Building on the success of third-generation HP Latex technol- ogy, Goicoechea said, the HP Latex 110 Printer features: î î î î î 24 Sharp image quality on prints that come out completely dry for same-day delivery. Professional, high-resolution prints up to 1200 x 1200 dpi with user-replaceable, six-color ink cartridges. Easy and intuitive operation with no specialist knowledge required. While people recognize that technology is forging ahead in their mobile phones and other devices, they don’t always recognize that evolution and innovation are happening in the print world, as well, said Fred Ramsey, global product manager - office solutions at Xerox. “For example, the Xerox patented ultra-low-melt Emulsion Aggregation (EA) toner is a fine grain, grown, low-melt-point for- mulation. This innovation may seem mundane at first glance, but the technology brings high-end applications to the general audi- ence,” Ramsey said. Whether it is magnets for a local pizza shop or plastic signs for a realtor, the Xerox Color C60/C70 offers turn-key features and media versatility, he noted. “With this technology, it becomes much more attainable for anyone to produce, enhance and expand applications such as rugged polyester labels, menus, signs, vinyl window clings and even textured linens,” Ramsey said. A first for a device in this category, the Xerox Color C60/C70 prints on linen to create unique applications such as event plan- ning materials, appliques and luxurious embellishments. Xerox’s EA toner technology helps customers navigate the traditionally difficult peaks and valleys in linen and other specialty substrates such as polyester. c o n t i n u e d o n pag e 26 Automatic maintenance and front-loading features, as well as online learning tools and software assistance. A healthier work environment. Unlike solvent inks, water- based HP Latex inks are odorless with no special ventilation required, features that are especially vital to print-preneurs operating from their homes. HP Latex prints can be used in a range of spaces, such as offices, daycare centers and hospitals. Because HP Latex ink technology works with a diverse num- ber of applications and medias, customers can print on banners, vinyl materials, canvases, coated and uncoated papers, backlit films and synthetics with one printer. “The possibilities of creativity and printing opportunities are limitless with HP Latex printing.” The HP Latex 110 Printer’s low cost, recyclable supplies and environmentally friendly inks make it feasible for companies to bring their large-format printing in house. In-house printing can benefit companies by reducing their costs and helping them main- tain control of quality and production timelines. www.gonpta.com The xerox Color C60 uses Ultra-low-melt Emulsion (EA) toner to print on a variety of media, such as polyester and linen.
