The collective number of pages produced on HP inkjet web presses since 2009 has passed the 10 billion mark, the company calculated. More than 2.5 billion of those pages were printed in the company’s recent fiscal quarter.
O’Neil Data Systems in Los Angeles, and CPI Group in Paris have both recently installed their sixth HP inkjet web press lines, bringing the total number of installations to 60 worldwide in 11 countries. In the UK, Communisis now has three press lines in Leeds and Speke and will install a fourth in June.
‘We are helping our PSP customers transform their businesses through profitable new solutions that in turn deliver higher value to their customers,’ said Aurelio Maruggi, vice president and general manager of Inkjet High-speed Production Solutions. ‘The productivity and print quality of our inkjet web presses help printers extend the advantages of digital even further into traditional analogue markets.’
One of O’Neil Data Systems’ new presses, a 1066 mm wide T400, is running at a new digital production facility in Plano, Texas. Joining the T400 are a newly installed 560 mm HP T200 and a sheetfed SRA3 HP Indigo 7500.
Book printer CPI’s proprietary Quantum solutions – a series of integrated book manufacturing lines based on HP inkjet web press technology – recently produced their ten millionth, digitally printed monochrome book. The company also has expanded its digitally printed colour work and its new inkjet web press is the first it will use for colour printing.
