“Our experience with HP has been extremely satisfying and the expectation of the highest quality output with the ability to go green using the Latex ink made us opt for this machine,” said, A Nagaraj, founder of Signage Graphics and managing director of it’s parent company N Jothi Graphics, Bengaluru.

The 3.2m-wide 1500, suitable for printing on a wide range of materials including PVC banners, self-adhesive vinyl and textiles. It print at speeds of up to 74sqm/hr in outdoor production mode and up to 45sqm/hr in indoor mode.

"I got to point out the service provided by Insight communication for the last eight years for our earlier HP machine is particularly commendable,” added Nagaraj.

“The 1500 comes with a lot of special benefits including a dual roll transport of 1.6m each, in-line slitters, a roll-to-freefall device which allows users to start finishing initial prints while the job is still in progress and a double sided day-night kit that enables users to automatically print double-sided backlit applications,” said Ashish Save, director of Insight Communication, in-charge of its HP business.
