HP’s DesignJet T830 MFP
The DesignJet machines launched include the “industry’s most compact and affordable integrated MFP” in wide-format.
The new range are said to “reinvent large-format printing”, and includes five new printers: the “flagship” DesignJet T830 MFP; the T730, T930 and T1530 printers; and the T2530 MFP. The range is aimed at the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) markets, and are “engineered to withstand tough environments” as well as offer “faster and easier” wide-format printing; and are all set to be released worldwide on 30 November.
The T830 MFP, as HP Inc noted, is the “industry’s most affordable, compact and transportable integrated large-format MFP”, and is “half the size of competitive large-format MFPs” but “with the same footprint” as the T730 printer. The machine’s “damage-resistant design” includes a built-in scanner and an extendable front panel that can also be “operated from a tablet”, with a “rugged case” providing “enhanced damage and dust protection” alongside “reinforced wheels”.
The T730 shares “many of the same features” as the T830 MFP, with both featuring speeds of 25 seconds per A1/D-size print, an automatic sheet feeder, flexible inkjet cartridges sized from 40 to 300ml, and an Econofast print mode to save “ink and time spent printing”. Of the other three models, the T930 printer is aimed at small- and medium-sized AEC teams and uses six inks including grey and photo black; while the T1530 printer has a dual-roll 36-inch capacity and six inks. Finally, the T2530 MFP can print A1/D-size prints in 21 seconds, and features secure printing.
Xavier Garcia, HP Inc’s Vice President and General Manager of Large Format Printing, commented: “Even as AEC and design professionals become increasingly mobile, they prefer making edits and reviewing plans on the printed page. HP’s innovative new large-format printers and MFPs simplify collaboration with next-level features and mobile printing capabilities to meet this blended reality and print whatever and wherever AEC professionals need.”
