How Megapixel Improved Productivity by Upgrading their Printing Tech

Footnotes

1. HP Latex Overcoat improves scratch resistance on low-cost prints where lamination may be impractical or too expensive. Scratch resistance based on internal HP testing in December 2019 based on ISO1518-2:2011. Estimates by HP Media Performance Lab on a range of media.
2. Whitest white based on ISO/DIS 23498 compared to competitive alternatives using solvent and UV technologies under $50,000 USD as of May, 2020. Test performed on black opaque self-adhesive vinyl (L*:4.16 – a:0,48-b:2,34) with 160% UF printmode using HP 873 3-liter White Latex Ink Cartridge. Visual opacity = 91%.
3. There is a broad set of media with very different odor profiles. Some of the media can affect the odor performance of the final print. Based on sensory evaluations conducted by Odournet done according to VDI Guideline 3882 where HP 872, 882, and 886 Latex Inks were characterized as “weak” in odor intensity and “neutral” for hedonic tone.
4. Compared to the HP Latex R1000 Printer series with 3-liter HP Latex Ink cartridges. For the HP Latex R2000 Printer series, all colors in 5-liter ink cartridges except white
5. Applicable to fourth-generation HP Latex Inks. UL ECOLOGO® Certification to UL 2801 demonstrates that an ink meets a range of multi attribute, lifecycle-based stringent criteria related to human health and environmental considerations (see ul.com/EL). HP is the only printing company with UL ECOLOGO® Certified inks in the “Printing Inks and Graphics Film” product category, see spot.ul.com/main app/products/catalog/.
6. Applicable to HP Latex Inks. UL GREENGUARD Gold Certification to UL 2818 demonstrates that products are certified to UL’s GREENGUARD standards for low chemical emissions into indoor air during product usage. Unrestricted room size—full decorated room, 33.4 m² (360 ft²) in an office environment, 94.6 m² (1,018 ft²) in a classroom environment. For more information, visit ul.com/gg.
7. Applicable to HP Latex Inks. The ZDHC Roadmap to Zero Level 1 demonstrates that an ink conforms to or meets the standards of the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) version 1.1, a list of chemical substances banned from intentional use during the production. ZDHC is an organization dedicated to eliminating hazardous chemicals and implementing sustainable chemicals in the leather, textile, and synthetics sectors. The Roadmap to Zero Program is a multi-stakeholder organization which includes brands, value chain affiliates, and associates, that work collaboratively to implement responsible chemical management practices.
