PMA Show : Fujifilm Wins DIMA Digital Printer Award
Fujifilm Wins DIMA Digital Printer Shoot-Out Award at PMA 2007
VALHALLA, N.Y. --(Business Wire)-- Mar. 9, 2007 FUJIFILM U.S.A., Inc.
today announced that the Digital Imaging Marketing Association (DIMA)
named it a 2007 DIMA Digital Printer Shoot-Out Award winner at the PMA
2007 International Convention and Trade Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
DIMA, a division of Photo Marketing Association International (PMAI)
presented Fujifilm with the 2007 DIMA Digital Printer Shoot-Out Award
for the ASK-4000 Digital Photo Printer in the Dye Sublimation category.
Today's announcement highlights Fujifilm's commitment to providing
customers with an ever-expanding range of print technologies. This
printer, along with Fujifilm's recently announced ASK-2000 printer, was
originally developed for Fujifilm's Frontier minilabs and was recently
made available to professional studio, wedding and event photographers.
The technologies employed by the ASK-4000 reside in other Fujifilm
printing solutions including Frontier Lite for photofinishing retailers
and Fujifilm's prints-in-minutes solution - the GetPix kiosk.
The category-leading ASK-4000 high-speed printer features
color-correction software incorporating Fujifilm's acclaimed Image
Intelligence(TM) technology, which gives photographers a reliable,
affordable and convenient way to obtain the Frontier-quality prints
they desire, regardless of their location. The combination of Fujifilm
Image Intelligence technology, dye-sublimation technology and color
correction profiles, allows the ASK-4000 to deliver crystal-clear (300
x 600 dpi), water-resistant prints that last for decades.
DIMA Digital Printer Shoot-Out entrants received a target file and
color-accurate target print, and were asked to output the file
according to particular specifications to produce the best possible
print. A panel of expert judges evaluated the printers using criteria
such as neutral gray balance reproduction, saturation, shadow detail
and quality, overall tonality and detail, highlights and specular
highlights, flesh tones, hue shift, and text.
By simply connecting the Fujifilm ASK-4000 printer to a laptop via a
high-speed USB 2.0 interface, professional photographers can leverage
the dye-sublimation thermal transfer technology to produce beautiful,
natural-looking prints onsite at client events.
Fujifilm is showcasing its full portfolio of imaging technologies and
services at PMA 2007 Booth E100. For more information, call
