Fujifilm Announces Wide Format Injet Printing Available At Sam’s Club Stores Throughout The Country


WEBWIRE

Fujifilm U.S.A., Inc., today announced that poster printing and signage services are now available at more than 580 Sam’s Club locations throughout the United States. The solution combines an EPSON/FUJIFILM Stylus Pro 7800 wide format inkjet printer, provided by Fujifilm Hunt Chemicals for Fujifilm Frontier Systems, with the Frontier Photo Controller (PIC) Version 3, and Fujifilm’s Image IntelligenceTM for enhanced color management.

Sam’s Club members can bring their images to any location, and print out images or signs in sizes ranging from 11“x14” to 20“x30”. In addition, this is one of the only on-demand solutions that will produce mounted poster prints, up to 20“x24”, in a matter of minutes. Fujifilm RC Semi-Gloss Boards fuse photo quality inkjet paper to museum class mount boards. The combination is fed directly into the printer, making it easy to go from printer to presentation.

“We are always looking for ways to improve services and bring new revenue opportunities to our customers, and we’re especially excited to be working with Sam’s Club on rolling this out to their stores across the country,” said Thomas Curley, director of marketing for lab solutions, Imaging Division, FUJIFILM U.S.A. “The posters can be produced in a variety of sizes on the same day, at reasonable cost, and represent additional revenue for the photofinishing side of their business.”

With this offering, Sam’s Club members can create posters for student or office presentations, create signage for community group meetings and small businesses, as well as make creative decorations for parties and milestone celebrations.

“This is an exciting new addition to our capabilities at Sam’s Club Photo Centers and positions us to better help our members with both their business and personal graphic needs,” said Michael Chaney, merchandise director, Sam’s Club. “We believe our members will find this printing solution convenient and superior in quality to similar production techniques.”
