HP Introduces 3.2m Wide Latex 2700 Printers for Next-Level Production Efficiency
HP has unveiled its latest 3.2m wide Latex 2700 printers, designed to deliver unprecedented efficiency and vibrant colors. These printers achieve speeds of up to 89sqm/hr using symmetrical double printheads equipped with automatic printhead cleaning technology. This innovative design enables users to handle high-margin jobs, providing a 30% wider colour gamut at high speeds while maintaining media gloss and texture across various applications, including thin films, vinyl, and paper for signage and décor.
Meeting the Demand for Performance and Quality
“Print service providers (PSPs) are constantly seeking ways to improve efficiency and take on more jobs while delivering outstanding results,” said Daniel Martinez, General Manager of HP Large Format. “Our latest solutions are designed with this in mind. The HP Latex 2700 series offers enhanced print quality, faster production speeds, and white ink capabilities that are sure to impress customers. Alongside these printers, our Professional Print Service Plans provide tools for streamlined operations and maximised business potential.”
Advanced Ink and Sustainability Features
The Latex 2700 series operates on HP’s fourth-generation Latex ink, which is UL ECOLOGO® certified and compliant with UL GREENGUARD GOLD and Toy Safety standards. This makes these printers suitable for use in sensitive environments.
Sustainability is another key focus of the portfolio. The entire series uses HP’s Eco-Carton system, featuring cardboard-based ink cartridges made from 100% recycled and recyclable materials, including plastics sourced from HP’s closed-loop recycling program. This includes post-consumer beverage bottles and ocean-bound plastics, significantly reducing the use of virgin plastics.

To help PSPs maximize their productivity and adaptability, HP has introduced Professional Print Service Plans, offering tailored service and software solutions. These plans are designed to boost uptime, streamline workflows, and provide ongoing learning opportunities. PSPs can choose between Basic and Plus plans, each featuring a range of tools, including:
