Large-format printing requires large-format devices. In construction and architecture — especially CAD industries — the demand for reliable, advanced large-format printers has never been higher.
That’s where HP excels. Their range of plotter printers is trusted by builders and contractors for high-quality, accurate prints of complex CAD designs.
In this article, we’ll explore some of the HP A1 and A0 plotters we offer. We’ll also explain what plotters can do that standard printers cannot.
What is a Plotter?
A plotter is a large-format printer designed to handle highly detailed designs. These are often used in CAD or schematic programs and can print to wide-format paper rolls.
Originally, plotters used pen mechanisms to draw directly onto paper. Today’s HP plotters use advanced inkjet technology. This delivers high precision and can print on various materials.
HP Plotter Options
Our range includes different sizes and features. For example, the HP DesignJet T230 is the world’s smallest plotter. It’s 38% smaller than competing models. This A1 plotter has a 24-inch roll capacity — ideal for blueprints.
Need something bigger? The HP T830 A0 Multifunction Plotter measures 1403 x 629 x 1155mm. It offers 36-inch roll capacity and all-in-one scan, print, and copy functions. It’s perfect for large-scale jobs.
Why Plotter Size Matters
CAD and trade professionals rely on large, accurate visuals for project planning. A1 and A0 prints allow for detailed measurements and scaled drawings. This ensures precision for architects, builders, and electricians.
Budget-Friendly Plotters
We know that cost is a big factor when investing in technology. That’s why we offer budget-friendly devices that still deliver.
The HP T230 is a compact 24-inch A1 plotter with a fast 35-second print speed per A1 page. It features multiple connection options and delivers consistent performance.
The HP T250 is a faster alternative. It prints A1 in just 30 seconds and includes a longer warranty — all for just £699. It’s reliable and affordable.
Both machines offer a high resolution of 2400 x 1200 DPI. That means sharp, detailed prints every time.
The T230 is a 24inch A1 plotter with a print speed of 35 sec per page on A1. With various interface modes, it’s a ‘do what you ask, when you ask’ device with a price to match.
The T250 is the not-so-big brother to the T230, with a quicker print speed at 30 sec per page and a longer warranty at just £699, it’s a dependable device for any budget.
Both machines have an impeccable print resolution at 2400 x 1200 DPI, giving you the best print results every time.
