ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Continuing to offer consumers a no-compromise choice in home printers, Kodak today introduced its new KODAK ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer combining advanced features, quality, and affordability. And offering more ways to connect and print from mobile devices, Kodak revealed its new KODAK Pic Flick HD App1, which lets consumers create personalized photo cards, collages, and prints on an iPad and send them to their KODAK Printer.
The ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer is the latest addition to Kodak’s award-winning inkjet printer portfolio. With a refreshed and modern design, it is targeted to photo-centric consumers and families who want great value, quality, and simplicity. It offers Kodak’s signature easy Wi-Fi set-up and a 2.4-inch color touchscreen for effortless navigation and a better ‘walk up and print’ experience. With Kodak’s leading image science and proprietary pigment-based inks, consumers get sharp text documents and brilliant photos that dry instantly, are smudge, water, and fade resistant, and last a lifetime2, along with the lowest total ink replacement cost3 and lowest average cost per page in the industry4.
Consumers can print on the go from their smartphone, tablet or computer using Google Cloud PrintTM and KODAK Email Print Service5. Kodak is now offering consumers the ability to customize their printer’s email address. Consumers can also save time with additional advanced features like smart sensor technology that predicts supplies and time needed to complete a job and automatically adjusts printer settings based on paper size and type.
“Our newest printer and mobile app speaks to Kodak’s commitment to deliver a print experience that meets the needs of today’s consumers, whether they are at home or away from home,” said Brian Cruz, Director of Marketing and Vice President, Consumer Inkjet Systems, Kodak. “The ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer offers the value and ease that consumers want, with no trade-off on quality and performance. And customers can be assured that Kodak is here for them with the supplies and support they need for high quality, affordable home printing.”
Coming in June, the free KODAK Pic Flick HD App for iPad lets consumers create personalized photo cards, collages, and prints, with the ability to add captions and speech bubbles. KODAK Technology identifies the colors in the photo and automatically generates matching mats for prints and collages, perfect for framing.
The Pic Flick HD App joins the KODAK Pic Flick App for photo printing from smartphones and tablets6, the KODAK Document Print App for ANDROID devices7, and the KODAK Photo Collage Print App on FACEBOOK, the first of its kind on the site.
Available in June, the ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer will retail for $99.99 MSRP. For more information on Kodak’s printer portfolio and inks, visit http://www.intelligentprinting.kodak.com.
