ArtSystems opens Latex demonstration suite

ArtSystems has opened an HP Latex Demonstration Suite at its Nottingham-based premises featuring the most comprehensive range of HP Latex printers in the UK. The new HP Designjet L26500 and L28500 printers join the existing HP Scitex LX850 and are already being used to train HP Reseller Partners as the UK launch activity builds for 2012.

Steve Hawker, managing director of ArtSystems, comments, “By having the new printers in our demo suite, we can continue to support the HP reseller partners as Latex is being adopted more and more as the technology of choice for users looking to replace solvent printers. Our investment is also in support of HP’s on-going activities such as the Latex Truck Tour.  Having this accessibility means we can ensure our partners are able to present the very best solutions from HP to their customers.”

The HP Designjet L26500 61-inch-wide Latex printer builds on the success of the L25500 as a true solvent replacement printer and addresses the soft signage market with its new back-to-back printing option. The HP Designjet L28500 is a 104-inch-wide latex printer delivering speeds up to 70 percent faster than the HP Designjet L25500. Both printers are high quality, multi-application machines offering greater overall productivity and better environmental performance than solvent technologies.

Resellers attended the first printer briefing event at ArtSytems on the 1st December.  The demonstration suite is now open for them to bring potential users to see the new printer. The HP Designjet L26500 is now shipping from resellers and the HP Designjet L28500 will be available for shipping from January 2012.
