The new high definition nozzle architecture printhead doubles the native print resolution of current HP inkjet printheads from 10,560 to 21,120 nozzles, delivering 2400 nozzles per inch, and supports dual drop weight per color for sharp text, fine lines, accurate skin tones, smooth grey and colour transitions, and enhanced highlight and shadow detail. Built-in nozzle redundancy ensures reliable and consistent printing.
HP will also offer a new quality mode, which prints up to 400 feet (122 meters) per minute in color with dual drop weight for a step function improvement in print quality.
The maximum print speed enabled will be up to 800 feet (244 meters) per minute, while still delivering the excellent print quality HP customers depend on today.
