Fujifilm releases ID printer

04/06/08

Fujifilm has unveiled a new printer aimed at retailers who would like to add an ID/passport service to their business.

The FinePix IP-10 is a self-contained unit, with a compact size of just 18cm x 14cm x 7cm. This easy to use printer is equipped with Fujifilm’s proprietary Image Intelligence software that is designed to make every photograph as close to perfect as possible, resulting in better prints and fewer rejects. The software automatically detects faces in the image data and then optimises face colouring to give quality, consistent results every time.

This innovative dye-sublimation printer features a 2.4 inch colour LCD screen and is compatible with most popular types of media cards. If the IP-10 is used with a camera from the Fujifilm FinePix range, prints can be made directly from the camera without the need for extracting the memory card and deleting the image.

Frame sizes can be easily customised to allow for flexibility and images can even be displayed on a TV screen so the customer can choose their favourite image before printing. Paul Austin from Fujifilm explains how the IP-10 can help boost profits: “Passport photography is a great money spinner for many photographers and high street labs. It’s also a good way of increasing footfall into a business and many retailers find that people who pay for a professional ID photograph become valued customers in the future.”
