Analyst take
- The HP Designjet 110plus Printer is a discontinued 24-inch wide-format printer suited to occasional A1 and D-size AEC output.
- HP rates draft A1 color line drawings at up to 1.5 min/page, which is workable for single sheets but not a heavy set-production workflow.
- Its +/- 0.2 % line accuracy and 0.00157 in minimum line width support technical drawing work when files and media are controlled.

What you should know
Key takeaways
- The HP Designjet 110plus Printer is a discontinued 24-inch wide-format printer suited to occasional A1 and D-size AEC output.
- HP rates draft A1 color line drawings at up to 1.5 min/page, which is workable for single sheets but not a heavy set-production workflow.
- Its +/- 0.2 % line accuracy and 0.00157 in minimum line width support technical drawing work when files and media are controlled.
- The optional HP Designjet 110/120/130 Auto Roll Feed is important for recurring 24-inch output; otherwise, sheets and manual handling define the workflow.
- No Ethernet LAN, no duplex printing, and legacy listed operating-system support are the main operational checks before putting this printer back into service.
- The HP DesignJet T918 36-in is the listed in-family move for wider output and scanner/MFP needs, though it is also discontinued.
It is 4:45 p.m., someone needs one more color coordination drawing, and the printer sitting beside the project manager is the HP Designjet 110plus Printer. Its job is straightforward: make occasional A1-size drawings, presentation sheets, maps, and marked-up PDFs without taking over the office.
This is a discontinued 24-inch, four-color wide-format printer from an older DesignJet generation. It remains relevant as an installed-base machine for small AEC teams that print modest quantities of D-size output, color-coded plans, or board material one sheet at a time. It is compact, light enough to relocate with some care, and can accept sheets, thicker rear-fed media, and an optional roll feed. It is not a modern shared production plotter. That distinction tends to become painfully clear on bid day.

Where it still earns its desk space
The 110plus fits a small architecture studio, survey office, field-support room, or engineering group where wide-format printing is useful but not continuous. HP specifies a minimum line width of 0.00157 in and line accuracy of +/- 0.2%. In practical AEC terms, that gives the machine a credible technical-drawing role for linework, dimensions, and color layers when the file and media are handled properly.
- Occasional D-size and A1 plan sheets from PDFs or CAD workflows.
- Color zoning, utility maps, phasing plans, and coordination drawings.
- Presentation sheets on coated, glossy, proofing, or photo media.
- Thicker specialty media through the rear manual path, which accepts media up to 300 g/m2.
The automatic tray holds sheets up to A2+, while the manual paths support sheets up to 25 by 64 inches. An optional HP Designjet 110/120/130 Auto Roll Feed can make recurring 24-inch work less fussy. Bottom line: it is useful when the next plot matters more than a stack of plots.
The limits show up when the queue gets real
HP rates draft A1 color line drawings at up to 1.5 min/page. That can be acceptable for a single revised sheet. It is a different experience when a superintendent needs several collated plan sets before a meeting. The machine has one input tray, a maximum output capacity of 50 sheets, no duplex option, and only 64 MB of internal memory. Those are workflow limits, not character flaws.
Connectivity also deserves a hard look. The printer has USB, but no Ethernet LAN. It is JetDirect compatible, and the catalog lists the HP Jetdirect 620n Fast Ethernet print server as an accessory, but a buyer should confirm the actual configuration on the specific unit. Its listed supported operating systems are from an earlier Windows and Mac era. Do not assume a current managed workstation will behave nicely without testing the driver path first. Printers have long memories. IT departments do too.
Bottom line: one user with occasional jobs is plausible; a busy shared queue is where this machine runs out of runway.
Use the estimator to turn the rated A1 draft line-drawing time into a realistic starting point for your next drawing batch.

Computed from the manufacturer's rated 269 ft²/h (a per-page burst rating). Real-world mixed sets run slower — treat this as a best case for comparing machines, not a promise.
How to judge it against the available step-up
The listed in-family step-up is the discontinued HP DesignJet T918 36-in. It brings a wider 36-inch format and scanner/MFP positioning. That makes it the more relevant direction for teams that need wide originals copied or scanned, or that regularly work beyond 24-inch media. It is not a like-for-like replacement decision; footprint, workflow, and support condition matter as much as width.
For a 24-inch alternative, the Canon GP-200 24-in is in the catalog as a current same-width option. The 110plus should not be selected merely because it is familiar. Compare the actual unit’s condition, available supplies, driver viability, and the local service plan before assigning it another deadline. Use the side-by-side comparison to keep the conversation on documented differences.
Bottom line: retain the 110plus for light, known work; replace it when network, throughput, or support risk becomes the bigger project problem.
Useful next checks
The read
The HP Designjet 110plus Printer is a sensible survivor for low-volume AEC color output when it is already working, supplies are available, and one person can manage the job. It can handle A1 technical drawings, manual specialty media, and optional 24-inch roll work in a compact package. But it has no built-in Ethernet LAN, no duplex printing, and an older software environment. Those limits matter more with every shared PDF queue and every last-minute bid revision. Bottom line: keep it as a light-duty office plotter, not as the machine expected to rescue a deadline.

Questions
Straight answers
Can the HP Designjet 110plus Printer print D-size construction drawings?
Yes. Its maximum print size is A1, listed as 23 by 33 inches, and it supports D and D+ media sizes. It is best suited to occasional sheets rather than repeated collated plan sets.
Does this printer support roll paper?
Yes, through an optional roll-feed arrangement. The catalog lists the HP Designjet 110/120/130 Auto Roll Feed, with roll media up to 24 inches wide and a maximum roll length of 1799.2 inches.
Can it print on presentation and heavy media?
It supports coated, glossy, proofing, photo, and other listed media types. The rear path accepts media up to 300 g/m2, making it the appropriate route for thicker material.
Is the HP Designjet 110plus Printer suitable as a shared network printer?
Not by itself. It has USB but no Ethernet LAN. It is JetDirect compatible, so confirm whether the particular unit has a suitable print-server configuration before planning shared use.
What should IT test before deploying one?
Test the available driver with the current workstation and PDF/CAD submission workflow. The listed compatible operating systems are Windows XP and Vista plus older Mac OS versions, so compatibility should be proven on the actual environment.
What is the relevant larger in-family option?
The listed in-family step-up is the HP DesignJet T918 36-in. Its 36-inch width and scanner/MFP positioning are more relevant where wide originals or scan-copy workflows are part of the job.
