HP Indigo 7000 Digital Press

The HP Indigo 7000 Digital Press delivers fast production speed of 120 four-color A4 (letter size) pages per minute with offset and photo quality. It is optimized to print large numbers of static jobs with run lengths ranging from one copy into the thousands, as well as variable-data work requiring the "every page is different" capabilities of digital.

The press offers low total cost of ownership (TCO) for customers exceeding the 1 million page level, significantly increasing the break-even point against offset.

Designed for meeting even the tightest deadlines, the press is equipped with the innovative HP Indigo Print Care toolset. On-press and off-press diagnostics and troubleshooting tools maximize uptime and facilitate continuous printing.

The HP Indigo 7000 Digital Press is gentle to the environment with on-press oil recycling, lower electricity consumption per printed page¹, long consumables life resulting in reduced waste, ability to print on recycled paper, elimination of make-ready waste (as compared to conventional) and ability to print the precise quantity required.
