HP revolutionizes everyday printing tasks with AI
HP has announced the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into its printers, launching an "exclusive" beta version of the new HP Print AI experience. This innovative feature, known as Perfect Output, is designed to enhance the quality of printouts from webpages by automatically detecting and removing unwanted content such as ads or strange formatting. The company claims that this technology will significantly improve the appearance of printed web pages.
HP Print AI to optimize image size, layout
The HP Print AI is not only capable of removing unnecessary white space and ads but also optimizing image size. This means that printouts from websites will now look as good as those created using a word processor. The company assures that everything will "fit perfectly on the page for the first time." This feature aims to significantly improve the quality and readability of printed web content.
AI technology to improve spreadsheet printouts, photo customization
In addition to improving webpage printouts, the HP Print AI is also designed to optimize spreadsheet printouts by keeping charts and tables on a single page. The company has introduced "conversational prompts" that allow users to transform photos into greeting cards with custom styles and fonts. The technology can automatically upscale images and remove unwanted objects, providing a more personalized printing experience for users.
HP Print AI to offer personalized support, chatbot feature
The HP Print AI will also provide personalized support for each user, with the company stating that its "intelligent technology anticipates" consumer needs. This will be particularly useful during setup and for remembering user preferences. The system includes a chatbot that allows language-based queries, powered by a proprietary LLM (print language model) developed by the company.
erfect Output feature compatible with all printers
HP has confirmed that the Perfect Output feature will be compatible with all of its printers, provided they have the correct driver installed and are connected to a Windows 10 or Windows 11 machine. The company plans to introduce new Print AI features throughout 2025. However, it has not yet disclosed on which printers this technology is currently available or if separate software installation will be required.
