HP launched the first inkjet HP DesignJet printer in 1991, replacing pen plotters and forever reinventing the design and print process of large-format technical drawings.
The original monochrome model offered early users easier, faster and more affordable printing, and the later colour printing models opened new application opportunities, such as GIS maps, and provided faster speeds and higher-quality images. With more than 3 million HP DesignJet printers installed worldwide today, HP is committed to innovation and maintaining open collaboration with its customers to not only create solutions for them, but with them. HP DesignJet printers are based on deep R&D know-how that’s been cultivated over decades and refreshed every day with every product, delivering easier, faster and better solutions with each new generation.
“This year HP DesignJet celebrates 25 years and continues to set the benchmark for reliable printing solutions, fast speeds and high-quality output,” said Todd Cromwell, vice president, Americas GSB Large Format, HP Inc. “We’re committed to continually pioneering new technologies to meet the evolving needs of graphic designers, architects, engineers and construction professionals and helping customers work where and how they want to.”
