Applications
and uses of your large format printer
What
can you really do with the new generation of large format
inkjet printers? Informative list of all the applications
of today's large format color inkjet printers. They come in
widths of 24 inches up to about 16 feet wide. Four color,
six color, eight color, and even 12-color printers are readily
available.
The
goal of the FLAAR network of web sites is to cover all of
the topics below. However, to be realistic, it has taken us
the first three years to cover basic signs and posters. We
now have a good CAD printer to test (HP
DesignJet 1055) and gradually we will expand to cover
all the topics listed here.
Please
excuse us if a few of these topics are not yet linked. In
some cases they are covered on other sites within our network.
In other cases we will increase coverage just as soon as the
next international trade show in that area takes place. Even
when coverage is only minimal, overall the information contained
in the three large format sites within the FLAAR network is
the largest mass of such material on the Internet, more than
even the well funded commercial sites.

designs as well as simply using fabrics instead of paper because
it folds and travels better, and can be wrapped and shaped
more easily than most paper.
