HP has expanded its large-format portfolio with a range of new workgroup and multifunction printers, software solutions, and new media choices.

With options to integrate into IT-managed network infrastructure environments, the new products, solutions and large-format papers provide geographic information systems (GIS), architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), and mechanical computer aided design (MCAD) workgroups increased personal productivity with improved connectivity, security, fleet management, and cost control capabilities, according to HP.
