Supplied and installed by HP Channel Partner William Smith, the new HP L26500 Latex printer has greatly increased the printing capacity at Lanarkshire-based Ecosse Signs. The company supplies primarily vehicle graphics and vehicle wrapping solutions to a number of blue chip organisations in the commercial vehicle rental and retail car trades in addition to general signage and high-impact digitally printed banners for corporate branding.
Director of the company, Tom Thomson comments, "We needed to replace our existing wide-format printer in order decrease production times and increase capacity levels. Having visited William Smith to evaluate the HP L26500 printer, we were immediately impressed with the machine’s speed of production that proved nine times faster than the previous platform, by the environmental credentials and eco friendliness due to the integrated patented Latex Ink Technology."
The new solution offers a host of new benefits, not least of which are much faster production, lower maintenance due to the printer’s self-cleaning capability and the removal of the need for expensive fume extraction and special ventilating equipment that are necessary when using solvent-based printers.
The HP L26500 printer now installed is used for printing onto a wide range of different media, including premium-grade options from 3M and in particular the 3M IJ180 series of films and other materials under the ImagePerfect, Arlon and Dtec brands for shorter-term applications. Tom Thomson adds, "In addition to the greatly increased volume of work that we can now undertake, there has been a correspondingly high reduction in print wastage, more consistent quality and an increase in new customers keen to engage with the environmental benefits provided."
