Among these is HP, which, based in The Sign Show section of the hall, will show its HP Latex R530, the only compact all-in-one rigid and flexible machine within the HP Latex portfolio. The device can print at a top speed of 24sq m/hr in indoor mode and can run materials up to 1.6m wide and 5cm thick. Also on display will be the HP Latex 630W Print and Cut and HP Latex 830W machines, which Colin Easton, UK and Ireland large-format country lead at HP, says demonstrate high-impact colour, white ink capability, and production efficiency. The HP Latex 630W has a top speed of 14sq m/hr in standard six-pass mode, while the 830W is the faster of the two models at up to 36sq m/hr in outdoor mode. In addition, aside from its leading hardware solutions, HP will invite visitors to learn about the HP PrintOS Production Hub and how this software can help simplify job management, improve visibility, and support smarter decision making for both print and sign businesses. 68 Issue 362 - September | October 2026 email: editor@printmonthly.co.uk THE PRINT SHOW 2026 PREVIEW | ROB FLETCHER ▲HP will be based near the entrance and within the colocated The Sign Show and China Print Supplies.” Of course, the exhibitor list stretches further; from trade suppliers and software specialists to paper and materials suppliers, there will be something for everyone at the show.
