CLEVELAND--Feb. 20, 2006-- Expanding their reach in the outdoor graphic market, HP launches their first ever low solvent-based printer, the HP Designjet 9000s Printer series, and American Sign Products, Inc., (ASP) of Macedonia, Ohio, is playing a pivotal role as the regional distributor of the series. Selected for their expertise in large-format printing, ASP will sell to the Midwest market, including Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New York and West Virginia. As an extension of HP's large-format digital printing solutions, the 64-inch HP Designjet 9000s Printer gives print service providers, commercial printers, in-house graphic departments, photo imaging companies, wallpaper manufacturers and sign shops state-of-the-art digital printing technology with the ability to produce a variety of graphics quickly and easily. The result is higher quality and greater efficiency in job turnaround - all at a lower cost. This new series broadens the opportunities for businesses in the graphic industry. They will be able to take on more work and greater challenges, while remaining cost effective. ASP is excited to be part of this, to be able to push businesses to the next level of production and quality. Awarded the position, ASP underwent extensive certification in order to be qualified to install the printers and software, train users, and service the equipment. Yet, the rigorous process was well worth it as ASP is now able to pursue greater market opportunities in what they offer their clients. The main focus of ASP's business has been on materials/media. Now, they can offer their clients a complete package - media, inks, equipment, software and service. ASP anticipates that the HP Designjet 9000s Printer will increase their sales significantly over the next year. Expected to be available in the first half of 2006, the HP Designjet 9000s Printer starts around $33,000. However, the speed, efficiency and quality of the printer far outweigh its cost, as many believe the machines will pay for themselves within a short-term period. Known for their industry expertise, customer service and diverse selection of printing materials, ASP is one of the few companies to carry all the major brands of media under one roof. ASP, in business since 1988, is located at 384 East Highland Road, Macedonia, Ohio. For more information, contact American Sign Products (ASP) at 1-800-223-5995 or visit www.americansignproducts.com .
