Important Information on HP Latex L200 Series Printers

HP has announced the 200 Series Latex printers will reach “End of Life” this August, which will impact the availability of parts and consumables for the L260, L280, L26500, and L28500. HP will no longer support the units, which could lead to extended downtime in production.

200 Series HP Latex

To show appreciation for long-time customers, HP is offering Loyalty Rebates. Simply provide the make, model and the serial number of your current L2 printer and receive LOI savings up to $2,000:

The next generation latex printers offer better performance and higher image quality and productivity over the 200 series. The Latex 335 Print and Cut solution comes with SAi FlexiPRINT RIP software, which automates the cutting process and makes variable data printing a breeze.

HP Latex 115 Print & Cut Bundle

During printing, Flexi creates a barcode that programs the cutter with instructions for required cuts, which means no additional programming. Simply load the printed media and let the cutter get to work.

Easy Variable Data Printing with HP Print & Cut + SAi Flexi

Looking for a quick way to use variable data in your next print project? When the Suncoast Jeep Festival asked us to create 500 numbered decals for their event, we opted for an easy software and print-and-cut solution to get the job done.

Each Jeep that entered the event needed to be tagged with a decal, and each needed its own number, which was to be displayed on the windshield. We chose HP Latex Print & Cut Solution, which comes with SAi FlexiPRINT RIP software that makes variable data printing a breeze. For the decals, we chose to print on HP Optimal Gloss Air GRP, which has a removable and repositionable adhesive.

In the video above, we provide easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions on how to set up your design file for auto-serialization numbering, as well as marking cut-lines for kiss-cuts and perforations, to illustrate how fast and simple making these decals was.

Working in tandem with the HP Latex Print & Cut system, the Flexi RIP software creates a barcode during the printing process, and the cutter will read and recognize this barcode, and is then programmed to know the exact pattern to cut and perforate — no additional programming is needed when moving the print job to the cutter.

While we chose a simple number serialization project, the Flexi RIP software could be used to swap out photos, graphics, logos or anything else to create individual or personalized prints for labels, decals or whatever your customer can dream up!
