BLM Imaging had on display DNP-RX1 Event printing solution which came in quite an attractive package. The printer seems to have all the key areas checked-off.* 15sec/page
* Large capacity 700 4R prints per roll
* Able to cut 2x6 photo strips
* Printer drivers for both PC/Mac platforms
* 13KG printer weight
Comparing the print and paper quality of this printer it is very similar to the Mitsubishi CP-D70W dye sub printer offered by Davino Sdn Bhd.
The best part of this printer from BLM Imaging compared to Davino Sdn Bhd's CP-D70W is the cost/print. It is less than RM0.35/print vs over RM0.53/print for Davino's Mitsubishi printer. Granted Davino's Mitsubishi printer is slightly faster for comparable quality print at 12secs/print.
For those evaluating dye-sub printers should take a close look at the Fotolusio. Firstly base on the much lower cost of print vs Davino's Mitsubishi printer. Secondly Davino Sdn Bhd is a very new player (less that 2 years in the market) vs the suppliers for DNP which there are 2 established players. BLM Imaging & DSC World. Being more established players in the market they are able to enjoy higher economies of scales and therefore are able to provide more stable supply and more competitive pricing for the paper & toners.
At time of writing at the fair the printer was being offer for under RM3,500 together with 1 box of supplies and a supply cost of < RM0.35/print. The package also includes software for event printing (e.g. borders, overlays, hot folders etc)
