Wide-format Printing Widens the Market

Academy Blue operates a 36˝ Hewlett-Packard model. At press time, the company was awaiting the arrival of Hewlett-Packard's latest wide-format product: the 54˝ DesignJet 3000CP series.

Hewlett-Packard isn't the only company selling systems wider than four feet. Raster Graphics offers a 54˝ model. ENCAD's NovaJet PROe and NovaJet PRO 600e both come in 60˝ versions. ColorSpan manufactures its DisplayMaker with a 62˝ width. And Xerox recently introduced the 54˝ Xpress 54.
