Overview
Busy workgroups want large-format prints fast - and HP Designjet 800
Series printers deliver clear, crisp images with rich, true colors and uncompromising
image quality - print after print. HP Designjet 800 Series printers are
network-ready, and contain a "virtual computer" inside, which
boosts productivity by doing all of the file processing work - freeing up
the computer quickly. Architectural firms, engineering departments and other
technical groups rely on the HP Designjet 800 printer for fast, accurate
illustrations, precise line drawings, and high-resolution renderings. The
HP Designjet 800PS printer, with an included Adobe® PostScript®
3 RIP, provides detailed illustrations, accurate proofs and powerful presentations
for advertising agencies, design studios, graphics workgroups, and corporate
departments.
