HP Unveils Two PageWide Industrial Presses

The Perfect Combo Get Peak Performance From Your Equipment with Matched Component Sets

Palo Alto, California based HP, Inc. announced the release of two new presses for high-volume digital production, the PageWide Web Press T4250 HDR and PageWide Web Press T500M HD. Fueled by the company’s thermal inkjet technology, these industrial presses address are touted for productiv- ity, quality, and versatility in the direct mail, general com- mercial, and book publishing segments.

“At HP PageWide, we constantly pioneer advancements to ensure our customers remain at the leading edge of dig- ital print technology that empowers their success,” says Vice President and General Manager of PageWide Indus- trial, Barbara McManus. “The industry-leading productivity, versatility, and quality of our new industrial presses provide our customers with powerful digital solutions to meet the needs of an evolving print market.” Designed for a wide variety of publishing, direct mail, and commercial print work, the T4250 HDR establishes a new era of high-volume digital print production. Its fast speeds and print quality allow customers to print more high-volume, high-coverage jobs, growing their business economically and sustainably. The new 42-inch (106 cm) web press prints up to twice the productivity of its predecessor, the market-leading HP PageWide T485 HD, on the most challenging jobs, resulting in 20,000 B1 duplex sheets and over 200,000 letter-sized duplex color pages per hour. At full performance mode press speed, this press delivers a duty cycle of 184 million U.S. letter-size (173M A4) full-color images per month. The press maintains high speed and quality on coated and uncoated media with weights ranging from 40 to 350 gsm (30 lb. text to 130 lb. cover). This press comes with the established benefits of thermal inkjet technology—8x noz- zle redundancy, user replaceable printheads, automated web-wipe cassettes, and on-press color profiling. The T4250 HDR delivers productivity, quality, and ver- satility while keeping environmental sustainability in mind. HP Brilliant B70 Ink has low VOCs and reduces drying time, with up to 50 percent less energy use than that of the T485 HD. As publishers re-evaluate book production strategies to adapt to supply chain disruptions, rising inventory and shipping costs, and expanding sustainability regulations, the HP PageWide Web Press T500M HD offers book man- ufacturers a purpose-built solution to meet their clients’ demands for shorter run lengths, tighter turnaround times, and more frequent high-volume orders.
