After the first year of successful collaboration with HP, the two companies have agreed an extension of the partnership whereby HP sell the 3-D printers under the DesignJet banner.
Commencing in April last year, the products were initially sold in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK.

Stratasys CEO Scott Crump said that HP exceeded their forecast and they will now expand the geographical areas as well as introduce new products.
Santiago Morera, HP's vice president and general manager of its Large Format Printing Business said, "There are millions of 3-D designers using 2-D printers who are ready to bring their designs to life in 3-D. Stratasys Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology is the ideal platform for HP to enter the 3-D MCAD printing market and begin to capitalize on this untapped opportunity."
The technology creates three-dimensional plastic models directly from a CAD file.
