HP Designjet T920 Printer.

The HP Designjet T920 is a 36 inch printer/plotter with front roll loading. Launched in 2012 it is aimed at engineering and design professionals working individually and in small teams.

The T920 is similar to the T1500 - indeed the user manual is the same. Differences are:

• The T1500 has two rolls with automatic switching, enabling long runs of unattended printing
• The T1500 has high-productivity features such as job previewing and nesting using the printer's Embedded Web Server.

HP say the US street-price for the T920 is $5,395. In January 2014 we are seeing an actual UK street price for the base (non Postscript) model of about £:3000

HP are very much pushing Web connection - it allows them to offer value added "cloud" services.

You can enable Web Services when setting up the printer.

Security Features:

From the Embedded Web Server, you can select the Security tab to control access to the printer in various ways:

• Specify separate administrator and guest passwords to control access to the Embedded Web Server
• Securely erase some or all files on the hard disk
• Enable or disable various groups of front panel operations
• Use the same security settings that are available in the front panel

Duty Cycle:

We haven't come across any specific recommendations from HP on usage expectations. Obviously a printer with 40ml cartridges will not be the most economical to run compared with the larger machines in HP's Designjet lineup. We would say this printer is intended for general professional use in workgroups of up to three people.
