Outstanding speed
HP Double Swath Technology provides breakthrough speed and performance. The
HP Designjet Z6800 Photo Production Printer includes two sets of four HP 771 Designjet
Printheads, creating a wide print swath—up to 1.67-inches/42.5 mm—and a high ring
frequency to deliver prints with amazing speed. Eight bi-color printheads feature 1,056 nozzles
per color, 1,200 nozzles per inch, and small drop volumes for top photo quality.
The HP Optical Media Advance Sensor (OMAS) allows you to print at top speeds and still
get great output results. This breakthrough technology improves paper-advance control and
accuracy, so the printer can print at higher speeds across multiple environmental conditions
without impairing image quality.
High productivity
Meet demanding requests and deliver high-impact prints. Fast speeds and high processing
power help cut turnaround times. Achieve excellent image quality at production speeds.
Condently print unattended with large ink cartridges and a take-up reel.
Amazing color
Consistently achieve accurate colors using advanced HP technologies with complete coverage
of FOGRA gamuts. Generate custom ICC proles with the embedded spectrophotometer with
i1 color technology from X-Rite. Print from your favorite design applications or through RIPs.
The HP Designjet Utility lets you easily navigate through color-management, printing, and
job-management workows, and the HP Color Center provides easy-to-use, step-by-step
instructions on how to add new media and calibrate the printer. Plus, the HP Designjet Z6800
printer’s accounting tool allows you to easily track supplies use by job, while the job submitter
tool lets you submit your HP-RTL, HP-GL/2, CALS G4, PostScript®, PDF, TIFF, EPS, and JPEG les
directly to the printer.
HP Vivid Photo Inks
Three shades of black HP ink produce outstanding optical density and smooth transitions.
Deliver durable prints that stand the test of time. HP 771 Printheads are designed to achieve
precise, accurate placement of smaller drops at high speed. Each printhead prints two colors of
ink with 1,056 nozzles per color.
Using HP chromatic red ink, your HP Designjet printing system provides the broad color gamut
needed to produce vibrant color and deep, rich blacks and to achieve true photo-realistic image
quality.
High, uniform gloss provides the professional nish. With a wide range of blacks and grays
with smooth, subtle transitions, true gray neutrality, and rich black density, you can produce
remarkable black-and-white prints. And these prints provide lasting results with exceptional
print permanence indoors in-window and away from direct sun.
