- The Professional Choice for Ultimate Line
and Photo Quality
- For Architects, Engineers, and GIS Professionals
The HP Designjet 800 printer is the professional and
robust printer for workgroups of 3 to 10 people in the
fields
of architecture, engineering, construction, mechanical
design and geographical information systems. It delivers
ultimate line and photo quality with continuous tones,
smooth transitions and a wide color gamut. Complete
with a "virtual computer" inside, the printer
does all of the processing work and immediately frees up
your
own computer. It comes in two sizes, with a media path
that is either 42 inches (107 cm) or 24 inches (61
cm) wide.
Product Overview
- Ultimate line and photo quality
Ultimate photo quality is achieved using HP color layering and up to 2400-dpi
resolution. 1 Ultimate line quality, with lines as thin as 0.002 in. (0.05
mm) and an accuracy of +/- 0.2%, results from the printer's use of miniscule
drops
and a continuous ink flow. Many more colors are available per printed dot as
the printer layers different color ink drops over each other to create new
colors.
- "Virtual computer" inside
Your computer is immediately freed up by a "virtual computer" inside
the printer, comprising an embedded HP-GL/2 processor (with drivers for AutoCAD ® and
Windows ® ), 96 MB of RAM (expandable up to 160 MB), a 6-GB hard disk and
a powerful HP JetDirect EIO 10/100 BaseTX print server (as well as USB 1.1
and parallel ports). CALS G4 files are also accepted.
- Fast and efficient printing
The HP Designjet 800 is a robust printer for workgroups of 3 to 10 people and
has print times as short as 60 seconds for D-size (A1-size) drawings. It
supports queuing and nesting and processes subsequent jobs while printing.
- Great media flexibility
A wide choice of HP Premium Printing Material is available, including HP Bright
White Inkjet Paper, HP Translucent Bond, HP Natural Tracing Paper, HP
Vellum, HP Clear Film, HP Matte Film, HP Coated Paper, HP Heavyweight Coated
Paper,
HP High-Gloss Photo Paper, HP Satin Poster Paper and HP Studio Canvas.
- No hassle
Drivers are easy to install and intuitive to use, an ink-set change takes less
than 1 minute, the control panel is simple to navigate, and media loading
is smooth and straightforward.
- Unattended printing
The printer can work unattended with its off-axis, 69-cc ink cartridges, long-life
printheads, 150-ft (45-m) media rolls, automatic cutting, and stacking
of finished prints in the media bin [optional on the 24-in. (61-cm) model].
The
ink cartridges
have almost double the ink capacity of previous HP ink cartridges
in this category, and printheads last through five to six ink-cartridge changes
on
average, depending
upon usage.
- Consistent colors
Consistent colors are achieved every time, regardless of printhead usage, ambient
temperature or ink levels, using automatic closed-loop-color calibration.
