Can I print on leather with the R2000?

#2 HP-Sonia 4 years ago

The HP Latex inks can bind to real leather, preserving its touch and smell while delivering very nice images.

However, the results depend greatly on the type of leather used and the expected durability of the prints.

Moreover, most leather hides are not completely flat, so there is some risk of head-crashes.

We encourage you to do some test before printing final job and to check the requirements for the final application you are willing to do with an HP technician.

I hope this information helps.

Before attempting to print on leather, make sure you have the right type of leather, ideally one with a smooth and consistent surface. It's also crucial to prepare the leather properly by cleaning and treating it to ensure the ink adheres correctly.

Printing on leather requires proper preparation to achieve the best results. While the HP Latex R2000 printer is a versatile choice, you should ensure that the leather is suitable for printing. Leather, as a material, varies in texture, finish, and thickness, and these factors can affect the printing process.

To get a better understanding of how leather is made and what makes it suitable for printing, I'd recommend checking out this informative article from vonbaer.com.
