All:
Kodak has always attempted to offer good quality at the low end of
the price spectrum. And they've been good at it! Just look at the
number of Instamatics sold, compared to Leicas, Nikons or Canons.
Now, they've introduced a new line of printers, to compete with HP,
Canon, et al.
What makes them interesting, is that they "enable consumers to
affordably print crisp, sharp documents and KODAK lab-quality photos
at home using premium, pigment-based inks ....with exceptional
quality that lasts a lifetime under typical home display conditions. "
OK, so I've used cut and paste to combine bits of two sentences from
their press release. Shoot me for taking things out of context. But
this is the key... long lasting, PIGMENTED (not dye based)
inks. Better yet, ink cartridges will be $10 for black, and $15 for
colour ... about half the going rates, or less.
If the quality is as good as they claim (I still have my doubts)
colour home printing may become viable, after all!
