What's HP up to?

Registered trademark of HP.

HP has announced plans to expand it's presence in the super-wide format printing (industrial printing). HP intends to buy NUR Macroprinters for this purpose (http://www.nur.com/nur/). This follows the acquisition in 2006 of Scitex.

Now HP will make prints for building facades, billboards, and who-knows what else.

BTW, this announcement is public (http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2007/071210d.html).
