Sony PictureStation DPP-FP55 News Release Summary:
SAN DIEGO, May 8, 2006 – For the thousands of photographers who
take high quality photos, only to let them languish in cameras
or PCs, Sony is introducing two ultra-compact PictureStation™
photo printers that are worthy of those precious memories and
works of art.
Designed for portability and quick set-up, the new
PictureStation DPP-FP55 photo printer can easily be brought to
parties, family reunions or any photo-worthy event to take,
preview and print your photos on site. The bright, built-in
2-inch display allows you to do more than print. You can zoom,
crop, eliminate red-eye and adjust color contrast - without a
computer - to create pictures truly worth printing and sharing.
“Our new PictureStation photo printers get your pictures out of
your camera and into your hands quickly.” said James Neal,
director of marketing for Sony Electronics' digital imaging
products. “With the editing capabilities of the DPP-FP55
printer, you can stay home, save gas and still get affordable,
photo-lab quality prints, virtually anywhere.”
For consumers who prefer to edit photos directly from their
camera, Sony’s other new photo printer, the DPP-FP35 supports
the PictBridge ™ standard, so images can be viewed and printed
directly from a Cyber-Shot® or other PictBridge compatible
digital camera. Connected via a USB cable, this PictureStation
printer will also print digital photos from a personal computer.
All Sony PictureStation photo printers use dye-sublimation
technology that ensures a continuous color tone for each print.
This printing process produces 256 shades for each of three dye
colors – cyan, magenta and yellow. Together, this creates 16.7
million distinct colors for each pixel. Once printed, each
PictureStation print is sealed with SuperCoat 2 ™ laminate, a
durable laminate coating that protects photos from fading as
well as making them resistant to water, heat and fingerprints.
Making prints from the PictureStation DPP-FP55 and DPP-FP35
photo printers costs as little as $.29 per print. Sony offers
several print packs of high-quality paper to fit most
photo-printing needs. The SVM-F40, F80P and F120 print packs
offer 4x6 high quality papers with snap off edges and SuperCoat
lamination in quantities of 40, 80 and 120 sheets, respectively.
The DPP-FP55 printer will be available in July for about $150
and the DPP-FP35 model will be available in September for about
$100. The SVM- F40P Print Pack is available for $25, the
SVM-F80P Print Pack is available for $30, and the SVM-F120P
Print Pack is available for $35. Both PictureStation models and
the Print Packs will be sold online at sonystyle.com, at Sony
Style stores (www.sonystyle.com/retail) located in high-end
shopping malls throughout the country, and at authorized dealers
nationwide.
