These new models make it even easier to print photos from a digital camera
Epson has announced the addition of two new direct photo printers to its product line
-- the Epson Stylus Photo 925 and Epson Stylus Photo 825. The Epson Stylus Photo 925
offers unique and exclusive features such as its automated roll paper cutter,
one-touch printing buttons, the ability to crop images without a computer and digital
image archiving to a Zip disk. It is perfect for the digital photography enthusiast or
even the less computer-savvy person who wants to buy a digital camera. The Epson
Stylus Photo 825 is the replacement to the popular Epson Stylus Photo 785EPX and
provides a simple and easy-to-use photo printing solution for new digital camera
owners.
"It is truly amazing to see how far digital photography has come and how easy it is to
print photos at home that look like they came from a photo lab," said Fabia Ochoa,
product manager, photo imaging, Epson. "With the Epson Stylus Photo 825 and 925
printers, digital photographers of all levels can simply pop in their digital memory
cards and print out amazing looking photos without ever having to use a computer."
The Epson Stylus Photo 925 has many outstanding and exclusive features that make this
printer ideal for more experienced digital photographers and those searching for a
completely PC-free solution. Built into the printer is an automatic roll paper cutting
device that makes it simple to print over 50 borderless 4" x 6" snapshots quickly from
a roll. The cutter automatically trims the photos as they are being printed -- saving
time and paper. The printer also offers the ability to print with or without a
computer with built-in card slots, which support CompactFlash Type I and II, IBM
Microdrive, SmartMedia and Sony Memory Stick.
The Epson Stylus Photo 825 is similar to the Epson Stylus Photo 925, but is simplified
for the novice digital camera user. The printer includes a built-in PCMCIA card reader
and PC-card adapters that make it compatible with virtually any digital camera memory
card. Supported camera memory cards include: CompactFlash Type I, Secure Digital,
SmartMedia and Sony Memory Stick. It will also support CompactFlash Type II and IBM
Microdrive with an optional PCMCIA adapter.
For viewing photos and layouts without using a computer, an optional 1.6-inch color
Preview Monitor is available for the Epson Stylus Photo 825 and 925 for an estimated
street price of $79. This monitor attaches to the printer, enabling customers to
review and select images before printing without a computer. It includes a screen
saver function, brightness adjustment knob and a tilt mechanism. The monitor also
provides an easy way for Epson Stylus Photo 925 customers to view their cropping
selection.
The Epson Stylus Photo 825 and 925 come with Epson Software Film Factory; ArcSoft
PhotoImpression 3.0; and a PIM Plug-In for Adobe Photoshop 7.0 and 6.0 and Adobe
Photoshop Elements 2.0 and 1.0. These software titles are all Macintosh and Windows,
PIM and Exif Print compatible.
The Epson Stylus Photo 825 and 925 will be available by September for $199 and $299,
respectively, and can be purchased through Epson authorized dealers.
