HP Indigo W7250 Digital Press

with higher speed for higher profit

The HP Indigo W7250 Digital Press serves high-volume production using its unique combination of quality, productivity, and competitive total cost of ownership (TCO). With more than 60 installations worldwide, this application-focused press platform prints on virtually any paper at high speed.
A web-fed press with optional in-line finishing, it creates a real production line. It can replace offset for short-run publishing, turn direct mail and TransPromo into a one-pass process, and support digital applications such as ultra-short run books and photo products.

Breakthrough speed and productivity. Enhanced Productivity Mode (EPM) enables customers to print more jobs digitally and cost-effectively, as color printing speed is increased by 33% from 240 ppm to 320 ppm. The press also prints in 2 colors at 480 ppm and monochrome at 960 ppm.

High print quality at high speed. Enabled by HP Indigo’s liquid ElectroInk technology and unique digital offset process, the press delivers prints of the highest quality—even at high speed—that match or exceed offset, allowing them to be used interchangeably.

Compatible with any substrate. The press maintains productivity and quality while printing on a wide media range from 27 lb text to 110 lb cover, including coated, uncoated, and recycled stock. An inline priming unit allows use of standard, off-theshelf substrates of all kinds, including offset uncoated papers, keeping media costs low.

End-to-end solution. The press includes a robust and scalable digital front end and integrates with a wide range of workflow solutions. Together with Hunkeler or other HP Indigo finishing partners, the press enables inline and offline finishing solutions for the end-to-end delivery of a broad application range in the most efficient and flexible manner.

Application-focused solution. With its combination of high productivity, quality, and flexibility, the press opens new possibilities for diverse applications in the expanding markets of publishing, general commercial printing, photo specialty, direct mail, and TransPromo.

High quality, high productivity

High productivity. Innovations in the HP Indigo W7250 Digital Press make it capable of running jobs with higher productivity and lower cost per page.
• Dual engine web—highly efficient, double-sided printing.
• Enhanced Productivity Mode (EPM)—provides a 33% increase in speed for most image-rich color jobs to 320 ppm, significantly reducing turnaround time and production costs.
• Powerful print server—The scalable HP SmartStream Production Pro is the most powerful off-the-shelf print server in the industry. It can manage high-volume, highly complex variable data jobs at press speed, with a single point of control capable of driving multiple presses.
• Print Care—Automatic calibrations and advanced diagnostic modes increase press uptime by assuring quick and accurate problem solving.
• Robust supplies—A set of new-generation supplies, including the Imaging Oil System, Photo Imaging Plate (PIP), and blanket, improves print quality, performance, and lifespan, extending time between replacements and reducing waste by 20% for more sustainable printing. Superior print quality. HP Indigo printing technology delivers consistent, best-in class, offset-matching color quality.
• High coverage applications—Exceptionally high quality not limited by substrate type or ink coverage.
• Digital offset-matching color technology—Liquid electrophotography (LEP) produces sharp images with a very thin ink layer that is almost transparent, exposing the finish of the paper. HP Indigo ElectroInk enables high quality and wide and accurate color gamut, similar to and at times surpassing conventional offset printing.
• Excellent color consistency—Closed loop controls over ink conductivity and optical density ensure tight color consistency within the page, from page to page, and between engines.
• Up to 7 ink stations on press—Use 4, 6, or 7 colors for vivid printing and accurate on-press Pantone emulations. True PANTONE® spot colors can be mixed off press, for matching up to 97% of Pantonecertified colors.
