Our large format printers
Durst Lambda
130
We print the industrys
highest resolution graphics using the durst lambda
direct-digital photographic printer. This is
the proven world-leader in true photo-quality.
Front-lit and back-lit prints are available
up to 49 wide by almost unlimited length.
Prints can be created directly from digital files
maintaining superb rendition of resolution, contrast
range and image brilliance! A Lambda print
can go directly to the mounting stage, without
the usual 24 hour drying time that water-based
inkjet prints need. Among the applications for
this quality of printing, are museum and trade
show graphics, high-end storefront and point-of-purchase
displays that need the very best of color reproduction
ie. skin tones, detail in food shots, to name
a few. This high-speed method of printing also
offers an affordable alternative to offset printing
when runs of 2 to 500 are needed, as there is
no need for plates, films, and special set-ups.
Hewlett Packard 5500
The 2nd in line for printing high-quality large format graphics is our Hewlett Packard 5500 6-color 1200 dpi water-based inkjet printer. The 5500 is a very reliable machine capable of printing near photo-realistic imagery, with razor-sharp text. Digital files are printed directly onto a variety of materials ranging from paper and films, to fabrics and vinyls. Printing widths are up to 59. The machine also supports 2 types of inks: dye base inks for a wider color gamut, and pigmented inks for long-lasting fade resistant printing which is good for up to 1 year outdoors. The 5500 creates the industrys highest quality graphics on vinyl and fabric material, and is 2nd only to the lambda for printing on paper and backlit films. This method offers a more affordable alternative to the photographic process when printing on paper and films, due to lower printer and media costs.
Vutek 2360
Our Vutek 2360
has twice the apparent resolution of traditional
4-color ultra wide printers. We can print
directly up to 78 wide media, using permanent solvent inks that
are guaranteed outdoor fade-resistant for 2 years.
No transfer steps to contend with, and no overlaminates
as the solvent inks bond into the material
being printed on. The 2360 prints directly onto
paper, fabric, vinyl, and pressure-sensitive
materials. Printing speeds are approx. 4 times
faster than water-based inkjet printing. The
2360 is designed primarily for production runs
rather than one-off fine art printing. This process
is ideal for billboards, oversize quantity fabric
and vinyl jobs, bus wraps and fleet graphics,
outdoor banners, poster runs, and wallpaper.
This method has the lowest cost of graphic printing,
because of the following: Solvent inks have a
lower price point than water-based inks. The
media does not need special coatings to help
the ink stick to the material. Overlaminates
are not needed to protect the ink from getting smudged.
No uv protectants are needed. Finally, the printing
speed allows more output to be generated per
work day.
