Graficomp recently installed an HP L1500 (3.2m) at Fishwicks’ KZN branch.
The machine is renowned for its wide range of key features:
- Prints up to 45sqm/hour.
- Automatically prints double-sided backlit applications.
- Prints are dry and scratch resistant immediately after printing.
- Running costs are reduced with cost-effective five litre HP ink cartridges.
- Unattended printing with robust roll-to-roll design.
- Roll-to-freefall enables the prints in a long run to be cut and moved to finishing, while still printing the rest.
- Online slitter feature allows user to slit rollups to the exact required width while printing.
Gary Crossland, digital printing manager at the Fishwicks branch commented, ‘We needed to increase our daily capacity with the roll to roll printer. Until recently, we had an old Latex machine that was very slow and old, so we were aware of the quality that the 1500 unit offered, along with its increased speed.’
According to Crossland, the machine will open up new markets. The optimiser ink allows the company to choose from a wide range of substrates on which to print, such as fabric, which they are keen to investigate further.
‘Graham Roy and his team at Graficomp have been great. They’re a determined bunch of guys who made sure all our questions were answered.’
