Hardy Signs has added a new HP 370 Latex printer to its print line up, giving the company the ability to print on a wide range of materials faster and with quicker drying times.
The company also upgraded the software on a HP 360 to match the performance of the new press. HP 370 comes with an essential features like bulk ink system, which allows recycling of ink cartridges, cutting down on ink wastage.
One of the biggest advantages of the latex printer is that it uses non-toxic inks, giving an environmentally safe printing output. With the non-toxic or non-solvent inks the printer supports the company’s customers to strengthen their own sustainability commitments.
Nik Hardy, managing director, added, ‘I constantly get feedback from our customers to have a greener print output and with our latex printer we support the green commitments of our customers, especially the corporate customers.’
‘I am really pleased with the latex printer’s speed and quality. With odourless inks, no extra ventilation is required in the workshop. It complements the UV Flat Bed (Arizona) printer in the workshop, leaving the Arizona to do what it does best which is printing direct to substrate’, commented Alan Gunter, Hardy Signs workshop manager.
The new printer was sold and installed by Woking based Repropoint, who also provided onsite training for the production team.
