Kodak Introduces the ESP 1.2 & 3.2 All-in-One Printers and New Pic Flick HD App for iPad

London, UK, May 16 – Continuing to offer consumers a no-compromise choice in home printers, Kodak today introduced the KODAK ESP 1.2 and ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printers combining advanced features, quality and affordability. Offering more ways to connect and print from mobile devices, Kodak also revealed its new KODAK Pic Flick HD App[1], which lets consumers create personalised photo cards, collages and prints on an iPad, and send them to their KODAK Printer.

The ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer is the latest addition to Kodak’s award-winning inkjet printer portfolio. With a refreshed and modern design, it is targeted to photo-centric consumers and families who want great value, quality and simplicity. It offers Kodak’s signature easy Wi-Fi set-up and a 6.1cm colour touchscreen for effortless navigation and a better ‘walk up and print’ experience. The ESP 1.2 All-in-One Printer provides consumers with an easy way to print and save. It too offers effortless Wi-Fi set up and a 3.8cm intuitive touchframe interface for quick navigation making it simple to print, copy and scan.

With Kodak’s leading image science technology and proprietary pigment-based inks, consumers get sharp text documents and brilliant photos that dry instantly, are smudge, water and fade resistant, and last a lifetime[2], along with the lowest total ink replacement cost[3] and lowest average cost per page in the industry[4].

Consumers can print on the go from their smartphone, tablet or computer using Google Cloud Print and KODAK Email Print Service[5]. Kodak is now offering consumers the ability to customise their printer’s email address. Consumers can also save time with additional advanced features like smart sensor technology that predicts supplies and time needed to complete a job and automatically adjusts printer settings based on paper size and type.

“Our newest printers and mobile app speaks to Kodak’s commitment to deliver a print experience that meets the needs of today’s consumers, whether they are at home or away from home,” said Bob Ohlweiler, Vice President and General Manager, Consumer Business KODAK EAMER. “The new ESP 1.2 and 3.2 printers offer the value and ease you would expect from KODAK, with no trade-off on quality and performance. When it comes to printing photos, Kodak’s vision is to deliver solutions that make it easy and fun to print personalised photo products at home. With this in mind, the new KODAK Pic Flick HD App enables customers to print straight from their iPad and thus do more with their photos”.

Coming in June, the free KODAK Pic Flick HD App for iPad lets consumers create personalised photo cards, collages and prints, with the ability to add captions and speech bubbles. For photo prints, KODAK Technology identifies the colours in the photo and automatically generates matching borders for prints and collages, perfect for framing.

The Pic Flick HD App joins the KODAK Pic Flick App for photo printing from smartphones and tablets[6], the KODAK Document Print App for ANDROID devices[7], and the KODAK Photo Collage Print App on FACEBOOK, the first of its kind on the site.

Kodak has also introduced a useful new service in the UK to help people save even more time and money when it comes to replacing ink. Kodak’s new ink subscription service means you never have to run out of ink again, as you can schedule an automatic delivery of ink straight to your home monthly or quarterly. Shipping is free and an email notification alerts customers seven days prior to shipment, enabling you to cancel, defer or change shipping options easily.

Available in June, the ESP 1.2 and ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printers will retail for £69 and £79 MSRP respectively.
