• Get consistent colors, print after print and from one printer to another, thanks to automated printer calibration.
Design
Proofing
• Have proofs approved in record time: Colors stabilize in less than 5 minutes.
• Print consistent and accurate colors across a wide range of media thanks to automated printer calibration and ICC
profiling.
• Produce high-quality black-and-white proofs: The 8 HP Vivera pigment inks include three blacks that give excellent
gray neutrality.
Commercial photography
• Create neutral black-and-white prints with the printer’s 3 black inks. No need to waste ink when changing between
matte and glossy papers: All three blacks are always on board.
• Produce consistent and accurate color photo proofs thanks to the printer’s unique, built-in calibration technology and
broad color gamut.
• Print on almost any media: The printer creates the new media profiles for you, and you can use thick stock of up to 500 g/m 2 .
• Print full-color, long-lasting posters,
banners, and displays on a wide range
of media.
• Create persuasive marketing collateral,
point-of-sales material, and tradeshow

Electrosteric Encapsulation
Technology
HP Vivera pigment inks offer outstanding image quality and fade
resistance on a wide variety of photo and fine art media, along with
water resistance on a range of HP creative and specialty media.
HP’s proprietary Electrosteric Encapsulation Technology optimizes
the pigment chemistry and ink properties for stability and
performance to ensure a broad color gamut, print permanence,
excellent gloss uniformity, and reliable, accurate, and consistent
printing. HP's 8-ink printing system is made up of the exclusive
HP Vivera pigment ink formulation technology with HP 70
Printheads, each printing two colors of ink with 1,056
nozzles per color, and the HP Three-Black Ink set. Ensures
exceptional color accuracy and consistency: a valuable
tool for graphic designers and prepress professionals
who need repeatable results. The HP Designjet Z series
are also the first large-format printers to employ HP
Scalable Printing Technology, providing superior
reliability and optimized ink consumption.
The HP embedded spectrophotometer with i1 Color
Technology from GretagMacbeth is mounted on the printer
carriage and revolutionizes professional color workflows by
automating media profiling. It allows users to automatically
generate custom RGB ICC profiles for their preferred media and
provides accurate measurements for printer calibration that
delivers print-to-print and printer-to-printer color consistency.
Also, with the optional HP Advanced Profiling Solution, you can
edit and modify existing profiles and create CMYK profiles.
An extensive media portfolio: HP offers a portfolio of 9
photo papers, 10 digital fine art papers, 3 proofing
papers, 9 bond and coated papers, and over 30 other
HP media. All have been tested with HP 70 Vivera
pigment inks to deliver consistent, museum-quality prints
that withstand the demands of handling, display and
storage expected of professional prints.
• Produce impressive renderings, photo-
realistic prints, maps, satellite images,
and presentations panels with superior
quality, consistency, and durability.
• Architects, engineers, industrial desig-
ners, and GIS specialists all benefit from
easy, predictable, and reliable printing.
