Scitex FB550

Graphic Printing Technologies (GPT) has been appointed as a reseller for HP’s new range of flatbed industrial printers, the HP Scitex FB550 and FB750.

The Scitex FB550 and FB750 printers provide print and graphics production companies an entrance into rigid printing with a compact printer and come equipped with an enhanced loading system. 

GPT is encouraging customers to book a full demo to learn more about the printer range and how it can drive revenues and profitability in their business. 

Shaun Thompson, general manager of GPT, said, ‘This is a hugely exciting announcement for GPT and one that we are very excited about. We only started focusing on the HP Latex range at the start of this year and we have already exceeded our sales targets, thanks largely to a very successful Sign & Digital show. Being appointed as one of the key resellers for the new HP flatbed printers further promotes our relationship with HP.’

The Scitex FB550 and HP Scitex FB750 now offer a new tabletop roll holder design for flexible substrates enabling easy, fast and efficient short-run printing, and new tapered wheels for easy and safe media loading, preventing media edge damage. The printers offer greater image quality and full bleed on max widths with the same capability of printing on virtually any rigid or flexible media (up to 2.5 inches). 

Mr Thompson concluded, ‘I am confident that our customers and the market in general will look at this announcement as an endorsement of the capabilities of GPT. We are developing strategically and positively and our commitment is to offer our customers the very best possible printing solutions the market has to offer. We look forward to hearing from anyone interested in an HP FB550 or FB750 and who wants to see a demo.’ 

The company will have an HP FB550 in its own showroom in time for the company’s PrintoberFest event 7- 8 October.
