Efficient Art Reproduction for Hospitality: HP Latex and LexJet Canvas

Hospitality brands around the world rely on artwork to set the tone for their guest experience, and behind many of those large-scale installations are production teams working under intense deadlines, tight budgets, and high creative standards.

Daniel Fine Art Services, a California-based art consulting and production firm specializing in hospitality projects since 1984, faces a familiar challenge: creating flawless, repeatable reproductions of original artwork at scale, all while maintaining museum-level quality.

Director of Production, Dylan Kelly, says, “It’s hard work getting a print to look just like the original… From original painting to mass-produced print, this is what we do best.”

Recently, the team took on one of their largest projects to date- a major art installation for a luxury resort property in Macau, China. Dylan reveals why the HP Latex 730W Printer and LexJet Elements Bianco Bright White Satin Canvas SUV have become their go-to combination for high-volume canvas work.

The Challenge: A High-Volume Canvas Order, a Tight Deadline, and No Room for Error

For the Macau project, Dylan’s team needed to produce a large quantity of canvas reproductions- fast. Hospitality rollouts often operate on unforgiving timelines, and this project was no different. With a large volume of prints to produce and deliver, every step of the workflow needed to be efficient, repeatable, and durable enough to withstand installation.

Additionally, the team needed a high-quality canvas substrate that was available in bulk quantities, something many suppliers struggle to provide consistently.

The Solution: HP Latex + Elements Bianco Bright White Satin Canvas SUV

For this type of work, the HP Latex 730W eliminates one of the biggest time and budget killers in canvas production: lamination.

Dylan shares, “For the large size and quantity canvas jobs, we chose the HP machine because it's very scratch resistant, and we can forgo the need to laminate. This is more cost-effective and faster in our production workflow.”

For luxury, high-volume hospitality projects where turnaround time is everything, skipping the lamination step means:

• Shorter lead times

• Lower material and labor costs

• Fewer opportunities for defects

• A more predictable production schedule

The HP Latex 730W produced consistent, durable results across the entire run, an essential advantage for a project with repeated imagery and strict quality standards.

Why They Chose Elements Bianco Bright White Satin Canvas SUV

Canvas was needed in large quantities, and Dylan emphasized the critical importance of availability in meeting their deadlines.

“We chose to use the Bianco canvas that LexJet offers due to the need to purchase large quantities of rolls and making that easily available. Most other suppliers do not have the stock on hand that we need.”

Beyond availability, Elements Bianco Bright White Satin Canvas SUV offered the qualities needed for hospitality environments:

• Bright white base for vivid, repeatable color

• Consistent surface quality with very few flaws

• Reliable coating compatibility with HP Latex

• A satin finish ideal for preventing glare under hotel lighting

• Durability suitable for long-term guest room or corridor installations

Impact: Faster Turnaround, Higher Profitability, Happier Clients

For Daniel Fine Art Services, choosing the right equipment and materials wasn’t just about meeting deadlines- it directly improved their bottom line.

“Profitability has increased, and lead times have shortened due to using LexJet-branded materials. Not to mention our sales rep is incredibly helpful.”

With the speed of HP Latex output, the reliability of Bianco Bright White Satin Canvas SUV canvas, and LexJet’s ability to fulfill large orders quickly, Dylan’s team delivered a project that met the client’s standards while strengthening their own operational efficiency.
