There are very specific target requirements defined by ASTM for both color and retroreflectivity of ink colors for regulated traffic signage. 3M and HP are aligned on traffic signage solutions in a similar manner that Avery and Mutoh are with the Trafficjet. One key difference is that the HP...

There are three essential variables to balance with HP Latex printers - time, temperature, and ink density. Here is a video on the subject. Note that there are literally dozens of this type of content available for successful printing with HP Latex, on more topics than you can shake a proverbial...

For smaller HP Latex printers (primarily 54 inch models) use of a step-up power converter is another option if new wiring is not a preferred option. 220 and 240 Voltage Converters for Everyday Use P. Wagner

Latex performance on 3M High Intensity Reflective 3939 Series, 3M Diamond Grade 4000 Series, and 3M 680 Series are all very good, and Latex ink adhesion is terrific on these medias. Due to the memory and thickness of the HIP and DG products, use of the TUR or similar weight is recommended to...

With Gen 3 HP Latex, the resolution that is being referenced in the RIP is the resolution of the raster data set (PPI) that is sent to the printer. The printer takes that information and ultimately converts it into dots/ drops (DPI). All pass counts print at 1200x600 dpi, with the exception of...
