Legend 72HUV hybrid UV flatbed printer from DEC (Digital Equipment Company)
 |
| Sample printed by Legend 72HUV hybrid flatbed UV printer. |
FLAAR is working at evaluating entry-level and mid-range UV-curable flatbed printers because we get so many requests for information from franchise sign shops as well as independent family-run sign shops.
Our first step was to visit DEC (Digital Equipment Company) and LexJet, to inspect the printer and do testing over a two-day period.
Second step will be to make time to visit a printshop that has one in service to take notes on how this Legend 72HUV printer functions in the real world. In the meantime, our initial comments are in the FLAAR Reports that can easily be downloaded on this page (and all other pages of this web site on UV printers).
Legend 72HUV hybrid flatbed UV now available from LexJet, Lloyds and more
To start with the Legend 72HUV is available from LexJet, Lloyd’s of Indiana, with more resources still to come. I know LexJet for many years as one of the more sophisticated suppliers of inkjet media to photographers. But LexJet has grown considerably and is now also an Epson, HP, and Canon dealer too, and now they offer the UV hybrid from DEC as well.

Most of our updates for 2008-2009 onward are in FLAAR Reports in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. It is more efficient for us to make new information available in PDF format. So if the web page itself is not updated, check out www.wide-format-printers.NET to see if the printer, RIP, or other subject is covered in an update in a PDF download. And if you prefer to speak with Nicholas Hellmuth in person, you can bring him to your company anywhere in the world as a consultant.
