The updated line of large-format equipment from HP is becoming more and more popular - both in the USA and Europe, and in Russia. HP has built a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to help you optimize your workflow to get the most out of your opportunities HP DesignJet printers … We have already talked about the advantages of the new models. The main ones are reliability, compactness (the device is twice as compact as other MFPs), printing speed - A1 format in just 25 seconds, the ability to use cartridges of the desired size (from 40 to 300 ml), protection against damage for use in offices and construction site, as well as the economy of consumption of ink and an affordable price. HP DesignJet printers are ideal for multi-user use for great collaboration on a project.
Convenient, first of all, for construction and design bureaus, the new line has the indisputable number of advantages that quickly brought the presented products to the leaders of the industry. One of the most interesting models, undoubtedly, can be called HP DesignJet T830 MFP with thermal inkjet, four-color printing and advanced scanning and copying of large format materials. The world's smallest 36-inch multifunction printer, the HP DesignJet T830 36-in Multifunction Plotter, offers users a truly versatile range of options. The print format varies - up to A1 and A0 inclusive, as well as the paper weight - from 80 to 300 g / sq. m. Thus, you can print both on thick Whatman paper and on thin lined drawing paper. The significant advantages of this model include economical power consumption, not exceeding 35 W in operation and moderate ink consumption. And, of course, this model has the option of connecting to a mobile device printer, printing directly from Apple or Android devices, scanning and sharing documents using the HP All-in-One Printer Remote app, and printing remotely via email.
Actively using The HP DesignJet T830 MFP, engineers, architects and designers are pleased to see the positive results. Thus, representatives of a large design organization Duke Construction in Dublin shared their impressions of working with HP plotters. They cited significant time savings, increased productivity and flexibility in large format printing as key benefits - all of which were previously sorely lacking.
Founded in 1991, the Irish company Duke Construction, today implements mainly large government orders related to the reconstruction and restoration of buildings. Bulky, expensive, complex projects require special attention to drawings, which have to be changed many times in the process. “Architectural drawings are at the core of our business. We need speed and correctness of decisions. However, large-format printing has always been associated with a loss of time and certain financial costs, which delayed construction time. We tried to find an alternative and optimal way. And I think we found it with the HP DesignJet T830 plotters,”said Neil Gerathy, a specialist at Duke Construction.
Until recently, Duke Construction relied on a printing press to print large-format drawings, which made the process more expensive and time consuming. “As a rule, we received drawings from the architect, then sent them to the printing house, and only two days later we could pick them up and deliver them to the site. All of this greatly slowed down the construction process,”explained Neil Geraghty. Own equipment, which is easy to place directly in the office, made it possible to solve all the problems.
At first, Duke Construction executives had doubts about the availability and quality of large format equipment, Neil Geraghty said. But HP provided the opportunity to test the HP DesignJet T830 36-in Multifunction. And the plotter didn't just live up to expectations, it exceeded them, wowing users with a variety of features and high-speed print quality.
Among other things, users from Duke Construction noted that HP DesignJet T830 has a number of features that significantly simplify and speed up the workflow. For example, the intuitive touchscreen interface makes it quick and easy to select files to print and upload them to the network for storage at the same time. The same interface can be used via the Android app, which allows you to control printing from a tablet or smartphone. The users were also impressed by such additional functions as scanning and Wi-Fi connection, so that you can print a document without leaving your office. Even invited specialists, having downloaded the application, can send drawings for printing from their tablet.
“HP's DesignJet T830 36-in Multifunction has revolutionized our business and made the complex construction process more efficient. The fact that in six months, having printed more than 500 meters of paper, we only had to change cartridges once, has already become impressive for us. HP DesignJet T830 is invaluable to our business,”concluded Neil Geraghty.
Another example is the American company Hensel Phelps, headquartered in Colorado. It is a world-class company offering a wide range of design, construction and management services. Hensel Phelps projects commercial and public buildings throughout the United States, demonstrating an innovative and high-tech approach at every stage of design and construction. With this volume, efficiency is critical. Even one lost day can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. HP's DesignJet T830 was able to quickly optimize performance without additional costs.
Like all construction firms, Hensel Phelps relies on graphics that must be provided to builders and subcontractors on time and in hard copy. But architectural graphics change and improve almost daily, so getting the freshest and most relevant material in your hands is not always easy. “I work in our district office where we receive large volumes of drawings from the project team every day and then send them to subcontractors and other employees,” explained Maurice Clarke, South East Construction Manager, Designer and Manager at Hensel Phelps. - The main specialists, of course, have online access to the project management system, but in remote areas where there is no constant access to the Internet, it is impossible to get information promptly. Therefore, printed drawings are the only reliable source.”
The company has long been looking for an efficient way to print large format both in the office and its branches, and on the construction site. The Hensel Phelps Technical Committee ultimately decided to try the HP DesignJet T830 36-in Multifunction, a multifunctional device that allows you to print large-sized drawings almost anywhere. The printers were installed on several construction sites at once. This made it possible to quickly make the necessary adjustments to the project, eliminating the time wasted for the delivery of drawings. It became possible to make drastic changes to plans in a matter of seconds and present the result to all participants in the process via e-mail or sending scanned files to the cloud storage. “Currently, one of HP's DesignJet T830 printers sits in a dusty trailer at a construction site, but even these less-than-ideal conditions have no impact on performance. The print quality remains at the highest level. The device is mobile, it is easy to transport it from one place to another without fear of damage, thanks to the shock-resistant case. Compared to some of the other devices we have used in the past, this machine is truly portable,”Maurice Clarke shared his impressions.
The HP DesignJet T830 Printer delivers high productivity wherever you go. The ability to quickly switch between roll feed and cut sheet tray provides flexibility for integrated printing, scanning and copying. Hensel Phelps users liked the user-friendly interface and the ability to use Apple and Android applications, which also contributes to more efficient project management. But one of the main benefits for the company's employees is the cost-effectiveness of the MFP. The device works so efficiently that it allows you to avoid cost overruns and even get the maximum benefit. All this makes the versatile and reliable HP printers from the new line ideal assistants for designers and builders.
