The HP 12-ink Designjet Z3100 44" Photo Printer with HP Vivera pigment inks and the first-ever embedded spectrophotometer with i1 color technology delivers exquisite quality, breakthrough color accuracy across a variety of papers, and truly reliable printing while keeping costs down.
HP Vivera pigment inks offer outstanding image quality and fade resistance, along with water resistance, on a wide range of HP creative and specialty media. HP's proprietary Electrosteric Encapsulation Technology optimizes the pigment chemistry and ink properties for stability and performance to ensure a broad color gamut, print permanence, excellent gloss uniformity, and reliable, accurate, and consistent printing.
The HP embedded spectrophotometer with i1 Color Technology from GretagMacbeth is mounted on the printer carriage and revolutionizes professional color workflows by automating media profiling, allowing users to automatically generate custom RGB ICC profiles for their media and provides accurate measurements for printer calibration that delivers print-to-print and printer-to-printer color consistency. Also, with the HP Advanced Profiling Solution (included with the Z3100ps GP), you can edit and modify existing profiles and create CMYK profiles.
HP's 12-ink printing system involves six HP 70 Printheads, each printing two colors of ink with 1,056 nozzles per color. The system includes the HP Gloss Enhancer and HP Vivera pigment inks in seven colors and four blacks. These inks deliver an exceptionally broad color gamut for photographic and graphics art applications, superb neutral tones, and deep blacks on matte, glossy, semi-gloss, and fine art papers.
