What Dataprint does

Dataprint is an e-commerce platform specializing in large format printing equipment and consumable supplies, operated as a division of ARC Document Solutions LLC (NYSE: ARC). The company maintains a comprehensive online catalog spanning equipment — including large format printers (HP PageWide XL, HP DesignJet, Canon imagePROGRAF, Canon ColorWave, Canon PlotWave, Epson SureColor), multifunction printers, large format scanners, cutting plotters, laminators, and specialty devices such as Matterport 3D cameras and SmartScreens — alongside an extensive consumables line covering bond paper (2" and 3" core), inkjet media, engineering media, display and sign media (organized by ink chemistry across 18+ subcategories), cartridges and toner, drafting supplies, and office supplies. The platform carries products from over 50 major brands and also offers private-label house brands including "Dataprint Vellum" and "ARC Brand Products."

The company's business model is primarily transactional product sales through a self-serve e-commerce storefront supplemented by inside sales (phone at 1-800-227-6191 and email). Revenue mechanics include unit pricing with tiered volume discounts (quantity breaks at 2+ units), manufacturer rebates and instant rebates on select equipment (HP PageWide XL, Canon imagePROGRAF, HP DesignJet), and trade-in rebates. Individual item prices range from approximately $20 for consumables to $5,499+ for professional-grade equipment. An MPS (Managed Print Services) Service & Supplies Portal serves enterprise customers with ongoing supply replenishment needs.

Dataprint targets four primary use-case segments: engineering and architecture professionals requiring bond paper, engineering film, vellum, and media for CAD and technical drawings; print service providers and sign shops needing diverse display media across ink chemistries; fine art and photography buyers requiring premium photo and gallery wrap media; and general office environments purchasing calculators, shredders, and basic supplies. The platform is MBE (Minority Business Enterprise) certified, operates exclusively in the U.S. market, and is supported by ARC Document Solutions' national fulfillment network through ARC Print Locations.
