HP introduces new large-format digital press

HP’s new Scitex FB10000 Industrial Press shifts retail graphics and corrugated display applications from analog to digital. As demand for shorter runs and faster turnaround times has increased, print service providers have found it more difficult to profitably produce these applications with analog printing presses. Other applications required a combination of higher print quality and productivity than digital could historically deliver. The Scitex FB10000 press allows providers to capture part of the 6.8-billion-square-meter page opportunity in the retail graphics and corrugated display markets.

The six-color HP Scitex HDR printing system delivers high quality and industrial productivity along with dynamic dot-size control and combines 16-gray-level printing with the ability to produce 1,000 B1 sheets in less than two hours.

The HP Scitex FB10000 Industrial Press featuring HP Scitex HDR Printing Technology is expected to be available worldwide beginning Nov. 1.
