Kodak are continuing to change the way the world prints at home with its new Kodak ESP 5 All-in-One (AiO) Printer. The newest device in Kodak’s consumer inkjet printer portfolio offers the latest in design and performance, providing a high quality, easy-to-use printing system. It leverages Kodak’s premium, low-cost ink that allows consumers to print more photos and documents for their money.

“Kodak are delivering on their promise to end ink profiteering and to bring people affordable, premium ink with the introduction of the new Kodak ESP 5 All-in-One Printer,” said Enrico Bradamante, Kodak’s Director of Inkjet Systems, Europe.

The Kodak ESP 5 AiO Printer (£129.99) features a small, sleek design with print, scan and copy capabilities. It has a large 3in (7.6cm) colour LCD display along with memory card and USB slots to allow consumers to view, edit and print with or without a computer. The Kodak ESP 5 uses Kodak’s high-quality pigmented inks that come in a simple two-cartridge setup - a full black cartridge (£6.99 RRP) and a five-ink colour cartridge (£9.99 RRP).

The Kodak ESP 3 Printer is available in the UK now from selected retailers, retailing for £79.99. The ESP 3 Printer combines high quality picture and document output with outstanding value. It also features a new software feature - Facial Retouch - that enables consumers to enhance their personal photographs in their own homes by reducing blemishes and enhancing facial features in just one click.

Kodak continues to expand its global reach. With its revolutionary inkjet business model and groundbreaking consumer value proposition. Kodak has added additional premier retail accounts to its international distribution channel including consumer electronics, office superstore, warehouse and mass merchandising outlets. New retail partnerships in existing markets include Target Retail Department Stores in the U.S., as well as London Drugs and Canadian Tire in Canada. Beginning in the second half of 2008, Kodak will broaden its current distribution network of more than 8,000 retail stores by expanding into Latin American countries.

Kodak’s update to the well-liked EasyShare snapshot printer dock now works with ImageLink-compatible cameras by Konica Minolta, Nikon, Olympus, Pentax, Ricoh, and Sanyo. Just snap your camera into the dense silver dock, hit the Print button, and enjoy instant 4×6-inch snapshot satisfaction. The Kodak Easy Share Printer Dock Series 3 ships with the Kodak EasyShare Z740 and Z700 digital cameras, or you can buy it unconnectedly starting later this spring. The price: $149

We’re happy to see vendors cooperate on cross-compatibility. Now that your friends with non-Kodak digital cameras can print on your photo dock, you might wish that it accepted quarters–judging by the luxurious good prints by this dock’s precursor.
