The Biggest Mo-Fo Of A Printer I’ve Ever Seen
Sure, it’s not really new, and it’s almost certainly not the biggest printer in the world, but the HP DesignJet Z6100ps is still one of the largest and meanest looking printers I’ve ever seen – for some reason it reminds me of a Decepticon hungry for some human suffering.
The 120kg monster measures in at 197 x 96 x 135 cm and is compliant with HP’s DreamColor technology, which allows it to recreate one billion colours and if you own a HP DreamColor monitor, what you see on screen is exactly what you’ll get printed out, colour-wise.
As you can see the print outs are huge, and the quality is pretty sweet. And if you want to own one for yourself (perhaps for some form of world-domination plot), they cost about $US12,495.

how much for a ream of paper for this bad-boy?? where would you even buy the paper from, and what’s the size called – A1000??
We have about half a dozen similar machines here, this one just has better colour reproduction (this is an engineering firm so colour isnt as important).
Nothing new except it can do allot of colours and is a wide format printer.
You’ve clearly never seen the amazing HP scitex tj8300. Have a look for it with Google image search. Your jaw will be on the floor.

That is one heck of a printer. I wonder how much the toner would cost!
Just to be a little picky:
A3 is bigger than A4, same goes for A2 and A1, which means A1000 would be ridiculously small. :P
That’s still one jumbo printer though! :D
Thanks for the post! :)
surfer79: A1000 paper would be very small.
A3 paper is bigger than A4 paper. This printer probably uses A1.
I dread to think how much carts for that thing cost!!
We had something similar at work for CAD drawings, and it was painfully slow (although this was 8 years ago now).
Yea they had a bunch back at my high school too. We used them for auto-cad mostly.
How do we know it’s just the tiniest woman?
