HP engineers began developing Edgeline Printer Technology by asking, "How can we make printing better?" Leveraging an unrivalled history in printing and imaging and some of the best engineering and design talent on the planet, HP developed a printing solution that would deliver excellent performance, reliability and cost-efficiency to meet the printing needs of businesses everywhere.
HP invested US$1.4 billion in Scalable Print Technology opening the door to the possibility of designing larger printheads with more nozzles. HP Edgeline Printer Technology is an ink-based printing engine designed with print heads that span the width of a page. In other words, with HP Edgeline Printer Technology, the paper moves, not the print head. It is that simple and results in faster print speeds and sharper, more vibrant print quality.
The HP CM8060/CM8050 Colour MFPs with Edgeline Technology deliver an entirely new class of colour multifunction devices, featuring best-in-class performance1, reliability2 and operating costs3. With an amazing 10,560 nozzles on one printhead alone, what you get is exceptionally precise ink delivery and pristine output quality. Deploying Edgeline printers across the United Kingdom, the Landscape Group became the HP Office Printing Solutions Specialist Partner of 2008. HP announced the award winners of its prestigious Specialisation and Certification Partner of the Year 2008 Awards at the Heritage Motor Museum at Gaydon. The Landscape Group is an HP Office Printing Solutions Specialist and Gold Partner and can provide all the products listed in this article. Telephone +44 (0)2392 572572 for further information.
When purchasing printers or multifunction copiers for an office, trade-offs are typically made. Is the speed appropriate for a workgroup or a department? Is color or monochrome output sufficient? If color, would ink technology or the faster laser technology be better? Typically, if color output is needed, the user must decide between the photo quality of an ink technology or the slightly more grainy output of a color laser. Of course, the color laser can print much faster than the ink technology so that is also a factor. If a large volume of output is necessary, the user must choose a color laser because ink printing is just too slow and ink machines are not built to handle volumes of paper. In many cases however, laser printing is more costly to print (per page) than ink technology. Edgeline technology from Hewlett Packard promises to deliver the best of both ink and laser technologies. It will bring low machine cost, low operating costs, fast print speeds and photo quality output.
