HiTi Press Release 27/10/04

HiTi LinkPrint - Direct Digital Photo Printing

HiTi have released their latest printer into the digital photo printing arena - the HiTi 641PS with LinkPrint TM technology - PictBridge supported.

The sleek new 641PS retains the same high quality 403x403dpi (6400dpi inkjet equivalent), and functions as its predecessor, the 2004 DIMA award winning 640PS, and conveniently the same 6"x4” consumables, for lab quality photos.

The distinct advantage of the new model is the peer-to-peer printing functions, via USB, and PictBridge compatible technology.

The HiTi 641PS’ handheld controller can directly run the connected digital camera as a card reader for quick printing, eliminating any potential memory card compatibility issues or read images from USB key drives and other portable storage devices. Images can also be read from the built in 7-in-1 memory card reader.

The easy to use and convenient TFT LCD handheld controller allows previewing and editing of photographs before printing. Cost per print on the 6`41PS is just 34p.

The 641PS, using dye sublimation continuous tone printing technology, offers 16.77 million possible true colours. Prints from the 641PS have a gloss finish but can be produced with a matte effect surface or a unique ?watermark?. The final over-coating protects the print from aging, UV, fingerprints and even water.

The printer comes with HiTi PhotoDesiree imaging editing software, allowing users to enhance and modify images and print different layouts such as stickers, calendars, greeting cards and ID photos.

The 641PS produces true photo lab prints in only 75 seconds and is available from October priced at just ?249.95.
