The KODAK Picture Kiosk GS Compact, an entry-level, self-service digital picture printing solution, is a new business opportunity for smaller retail locations from Eastman Kodak Company. Well-suited for locations with print demand of 30-50 prints a day, the GS Compact is a smaller countertop unit that combines flexible placement with fast and simple installation. Almost immediately, retailers can begin offering 4×6, 5×7 and 6×8-in print sizes, creating an instant revenue stream.
“Many smaller retailers worldwide want to offer their consumers self-service digital picture printing but struggle to find a solution that meets multiple business needs,” commented Phil Cullimore, head of retail printing, Europe, Africa and Middle East, Eastman Kodak Company. “The new GS Compact is small enough to fit within their retail footprint at a price point that enables them to quickly drive revenue and profits from consumer demand for digital prints. We even include the point of sale materials with each unit – it’s an instant printing station in a box because a retailer can be up and running in only minutes.”
The GS Compact also includes enhanced ID photo capabilities, which make it easier for retailers to meet size requirements for different countries. In addition to standard prints, consumers can make enlargements and print packages and can print pictures from Bluetooth imaging-enabled mobile devices.
