BUENA PARK, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Noritsu America Corporation, a leading manufacturer of digital
imaging equipment, will debut the new D701, a retail inkjet photo
printer at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas January
7-10. Noritsu will be exhibiting in the South Hall of the Las Vegas
Convention Center, booth number 31431.
The D701 is the latest addition to an extensive line of digital
photo imaging equipment that represents Noritsu's commitment to
innovation and dedication to providing retail partners with the most
profitable photo imaging equipment in the industry. According to
research from InfoTrends Inc, consumers are printing photos at retail
locations at a rapidly increasing rate. They are forecasting that
almost 60% of all digital photo prints will be made at retail
locations by 2011. This is an exciting opportunity for retailers who
can meet this growing consumer demand with in-store photo printing
capabilities.
The Noritsu D701 is a high quality inkjet printer capable of
producing a wide variety of print sizes to maximize revenue potential.
Retailers can now provide their customers with a full assortment of
photo and photo-related products in stores. In addition to standard
4"x6" prints, the D701 can produce new photo revenue opportunities
through items such as calendars, photo cards, locker prints and
posters up to 10" x 36". The D701 utilizes a revolutionary new inkjet
technology that radically improves the dye ink process to provide
sharp detail and brilliant colors, while producing long-lasting prints
that resist deterioration from ozone and light. Ideal for
photofinishing and retail environments, the D701 is an extremely
compact printing system, taking up only 4.6 square feet of space. Two
D701 printers can be stacked together to increase printing capacity
without increasing footprint. Other features include an order sorter
that organizes print orders for improved productivity and the ability
to switch between sheet and roll-fed paper, which enables the printer
to handle a variety of print jobs for greater revenue opportunities.
The D701 works well as the printing element of a complete photo
solution, providing retailers with an easy-to-deploy in-store print
solution that has connectivity to third party kiosks from companies
such as Lucidiom, Whitech and LifePics.
"The D701 is the perfect combination of quality and versatility"
commented Mr. Akihiko Kuwabara, President of Noritsu America
Corporation. "Its ability to print up to 10"x36" panoramic prints
creates exciting new revenue potential for retailers. The D701
represents our fifth generation of inkjet technology and is engineered
to deliver the same high quality and steadfast reliability that all of
our printers are known for worldwide."
