HP superior media
for superior results
New media types, such as the HP Scrim Banner, are developed for existing
printing platforms to suit your evolving needs, our ink and printer engineering
specialists will ensure that their expertise becomes part of the media
development process.
Environmental chambers are primary testing tools in the media invention and
testing process, where environmental variants such as temperature and humidity
can be scientifically controlled and measured. HP printers, inks and media are
tested together under these conditions to ensure that the complete HP printing
platform performs perfectly under every environmental condition.
Under these stringent testing conditions, performance flaws, such as the tendency
for ink to bleed excessively on certain media in hot and humid conditions, can be
identified. Adjustments can then be made to the media, like changing the coating
chemistry or the substrate to counteract these tendencies, or even to the whole
printing platform, to ensure that the HP Designjet platform always delivers
consistently outstanding results.
HP uses three media coating types, porous, swellable and HP hybrid
porous/swellable, to ensure that there is always a media type to suit every
possible user need.
During development, HP media is rigorously tested using HP inks and printers
so that you can be sure that when you choose HP supplies for your HP Designjet,
you have the full benefit of years of research and testing on your side.
