The Latex Mobile app allows mobile printing for the OEM’s Latex 300 machines.
HP’s Latex 360
The app, showcased at the SGIA Expo by the OEM, introduces “smart printing capabilities” to the Latex 300 range of wide-format printers, and allows users to “remotely monitor their printers, track job status and receive printer alerts”, offering an “innovative user experience” for the Latex 310, 330 and 360 devices in the range.
Xavier Garcia, Vice President and General Manager of HP’s Large-Format Sign and Display Division, commented: “Print service providers (PSPs) are under increasing pressure from customers to deliver on-time, urgent jobs while providing guaranteed, industry-leading work. The HP Latex Mobile app marks the beginning of a new era of smart printing, giving customers peace of mind while they are at and away from the print shop, as well as helping them to better address time-sensitive requests and gain customer loyalty.”
Jose María Miñarro, Manager at HP customer Miñarro Impresión, got to try the app, and added: “The HP Latex Mobile application has not only simplified my working processes, its remote monitoring capabilities also give me the confidence to know what’s happening while I’m out of the office.”
The Latex Mobile app will be available for download in January next year for smartphones, and mid-2015 for tablets, with both releases for iOS and Android.
