HP DesignJet T1700 (W6B55A#B1K) Large Format Plotter Printer – 44-inch

The HP DesignJet T1700 is a 44-inch large-format plotter printer made for teams that print CAD drawings, GIS maps, and AEC plans. It suits offices that need consistent line quality, clear text, and fast turnaround without outsourcing every job. If you handle wide prints daily, this model helps you keep control of revisions, deadlines, and print costs by producing A1/D output on demand.

Why you’ll like it

• Handles wide-format output up to 44 inches for full-size plans and posters.

• Sharp, detailed results at up to 2400 × 1200 dpi (optimised).

• Faster turnaround for busy workflows with quoted A1/D speed figures.

• Six-cartridge ink system helps support both strong lines and smooth greys.

• Sheet and roll support fits mixed office printing (quick sheets or longer roll runs).

• Built-in cutter support helps keep roll jobs tidy and reduces manual trimming.

• Network-ready options (Ethernet, plus USB and listed Wi-Fi) suit shared teams.

Key details

This is a 44-inch HP Thermal Inkjet plotter designed for CAD/GIS/AEC printing, featuring a six-ink system, roll and sheet handling, and workgroup-friendly connectivity.

Key features

• 44-inch width means you can print wide drawings without scaling down. Confirm your standard sheet or roll sizes match your workflow.

• HP Thermal Inkjet is the print method. It’s useful to know for procurement, maintenance planning, and the correct supply type.

• 2400 × 1200 dpi (optimised) is about fine detail and smooth curves. It helps for crisp lines, small annotations, and clean graphics.

• Speed and throughput figures help you estimate queue time. Real-world results vary by file complexity and settings, so treat them as planning numbers.

• Six inks include multiple blacks plus grey. This supports strong linework and smoother tonal work in greys.

• 128 GB virtual memory is a practical sign this model is designed for complex files and shared office use.

• Gigabit Ethernet helps in multi-user environments where the plotter sits on the network.

• USB host / USB 2.0 can be helpful for local workflows or direct file handling, depending on how your office prints.

• Sheet + roll feed gives flexibility: quick one-off sheets or longer runs from roll media.

• Automatic cutter matters if you run roll jobs often. It reduces manual cutting and makes output handling easier.

Fit & compatibility

Treat this as an office machine purchase: confirm your space, your media needs, and how your team will connect to it (network vs local). Before you order, double-check the exact model string on your paperwork to avoid variant mix-ups.

• Model check: confirm you need HP DesignJet T1700 44-in and that your quote/invoice shows W6B55A#B1K.

• Width planning: “44-inch / 1118 mm” is the max print width. If you work in millimetres, use 1118 mm as your quick reference.

• Media planning: listings commonly mention support for plain, coated, photo paper, and canvas. Match media choice to the job (line drawings vs presentation prints).

• Connectivity planning: if this will be shared, plan for Ethernet. If you rely on wireless setups, confirm the Wi-Fi option your workflow needs is available on your unit.

Compatibility note: if you were searching for nearby model names (such as other T1700-series variants), don’t assume they are the same. Always match the exact model/product number before purchase.
