PageWide XL printers use a technique called single pass printing. Single pass machines utilize a stationary print head that jets ink onto a traveling print media. Traditional ink jet machines use a reciprocating print head, limiting the speed at which media is produced.

The PageWide technology replaces traditional printheads and instead uses a stationary printbar. The printbar contains nozzles that spray and format ink onto print material.

HP offers a variety of PageWide XL printers. These printers can cut job preparation time and production costs up to 50 percent. HP boasts the ability to print monochrome technical documents at the same or lower cost than comparable LED printers and print color technical documents at the lowest cost in the market.
