HP 3EK11A#B19 Designjet T1600 printer 91,4 cm ( 36 inch ) (freight shipping) content_copy

The HP DesignJet T1600 is a large-format printer of the business class, specifically developed for professional applications in the fields of architecture, engineering, graphic design, and technical documentation. It features a printing technology based on Thermal Inkjet and achieves a maximum print resolution of 2400 x 1200 DPI, ensuring sharp lines and detailed color reproduction. The print heads consist of a universal printhead designed for all six ink cartridges – Cyan, Photo Black, Matte Black, Magenta, Yellow, and Gray. This color palette enables a wide range of color and toning options, particularly for high-quality technical drawings, photo prints, and color-intensive presentations. The print speed reaches up to 180 A1 pages per hour, enabling efficient processing of large jobs. The maximum print size is 914 x 1219 mm, with support for ISO formats such as A0, A1, A2, A3, and A4. Paper handling includes various media types such as coated, semi-matte, glossy, bond, and photo paper, as well as satin and matte paper, with a maximum media thickness of 0.5 mm. The maximum roll width is 914 mm, and the maximum roll diameter is 14 cm. Print settings can be configured using various page description languages such as PostScript 3, PDF 1.7, HP-GL/2, TIFF, JPEG, HP-RTL, and CALS G4, facilitating integration into existing workflows.

Applications

The printer is designed for professional environments where high print quality, speed, and reliability are required. It is particularly suitable for producing construction plans, technical drawings, architectural visualizations, graphic designs, and other large-format documents. Support for PostScript 3 and PDF 1.7 enables precise reproduction of complex graphics and fonts. The integrated Adobe PDF Print Engine ensures maximum accuracy, especially for fine details, shading, and transparent elements. Automatic stacking of up to 100 pages reduces manual intervention and increases productivity.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The printer features an integrated display to support operation. The internal storage capacity is 128 GB, sufficient for processing large files and print jobs. The RAM capacity is 500 GB, enabling processing of complex graphics and large file volumes. Noise emission is 42 dB during operation and 32 dB in standby, representing a relatively quiet operation for a large-format printer. Power supply is via an input voltage of 100–240 V at 50/60 Hz, with a maximum power consumption of 100 W. In sleep mode, consumption is 10 W, and in the off state, it is 0.3 W.

Technology Explained Simply

The Thermal Inkjet technology works by heating ink in the print heads, causing small droplets to be deposited onto the paper. The resolution of 2400 x 1200 DPI ensures high detail accuracy. The six ink cartridges enable a broad color palette, with the distinction between Photo Black and Matte Black allowing adaptation to different paper types and requirements. Support for PostScript 3 and PDF 1.7 ensures correct reproduction of complex documents. The Adobe PDF Print Engine provides precise color reproduction and high accuracy, especially for fine details and shading.

Compatibility and Accessories

The printer is equipped with Gigabit Ethernet, enabling fast network connectivity. The mobile printing function HP ePrint allows printing from mobile devices, with the HP Smart App and HP Click App simplifying operation. The printer is equipped with HP Dynamic Security, which blocks the use of ink cartridges with non-HP chips. Firmware updates ensure these security measures remain up to date. As an alternative or successor, the HP DesignJet T1600 36inch PostScript Printer Plus Edition is offered.

Installation and Mounting

The printer is delivered with a printer stand, a media tray, a roll, the print heads, the introductory ink cartridges, an operating manual, and the necessary power cables. Installation is performed using the included software, including HP Click App, HP mobile, ePrint, and the HP Smart App. Network configuration is done via the Ethernet interface. Operation is performed via the integrated display.

Operational Advantages

The printer offers high productivity with a print speed of up to 180 A1 pages per hour and automatic stacking of up to 100 pages. The quiet operation, with 42 dB during printing and 32 dB in standby, reduces disturbance in the work environment. The integrated Adobe PDF Print Engine ensures maximum accuracy and detail fidelity. Mobile printing functionality and support for PostScript 3 and PDF 1.7 simplify integration into existing workflows. HP Dynamic Security protects the network from unauthorized access and secures data.

Certification and Sustainability

The printer meets the requirements of Class A, including standards from the USA (FCC), Canada (ICES), EU (EMC Directive), Australia (ACMA), New Zealand (RSM), China (CCC), Japan (VCCI), and Korea (KCC). It is also awarded the ENERGY STAR certification, indicating energy-efficient usage. Safety certifications include EU directives (LVD and EN 60950-1) as well as certifications for Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan (EAC), and Ukraine (UA).
