Tapley Signs has taken delivery of a new HP Latex R530 all-in-one printer to strengthen production and improve its overall offering to customers.

The Dublin-based company’s installation is believed to have been the first installation of the new HP Latex R530 printer in Ireland.

For nearly 10 years it had been running most of its print-based work on an HP Scitex FB550, until the business chose to upgrade it to the HP Latex R530.

Anthony Tapley, joint managing director, said: “We had the HP Scitex FB550 for nearly 10 years and loved it. We had been looking for the past few years for a similar alternative and couldn’t find anything until the HP Latex R530 was launched, and it was a no brainer to change over.”

The new HP Latex R530 runs at a maximum speed of 24m sq/hr in indoor mode, and can print on a wide range of materials up to 1.6m wide and 5cm thick, opening up all manner of opportunities to users.

The R530 was released in March 2025

Additional features include the ability to print in white, and also up to 5 layers of colours simultaneously, using HP Latex Inks, along with HP’s Sustainability Amplifier software.

In its first few months of use, the new HP Latex R530 has proven its versatility, tackling everything from printed boards and in-store point-of-sale magnets to double-sided card and illuminated lightboxes, including directly onto carpet.

Mr Tapley added: “We do not know what HP Latex technology will bring us in terms of new opportunities, but we are very open to future possibilities. At the minute, we are happy with the machines we have but are open to purchasing more HP Latex machines in the future.”
