Epson Announces Three New PictureMate Printers

LONG BEACH, Calif., Sept. 6 -- Building on the phenomenal success of the PictureMate personal photo lab line, Epson America Inc. today announced three new printer models, which enable consumers to easily print professional looking 4" x 6" photos themselves at home or wherever they choose, with or without a computer. The newest PictureMate printer line, which includes PictureMate Pal, PictureMate Snap and PictureMate Flash, boasts several improvements over the previous generation, including features that make it even easier to print the best looking photos with no tradeoffs.

The PictureMate line, which has consistently been a top choice among consumers for small format photo printers, uses Epson's exclusive MicroPiezo® archival printing technology to produce beautiful and affordable prints that resist fading far longer than traditional film processed prints. In addition to being fade resistant, this ink technology ensures that PictureMate prints are smudge, scratch, and water resistant. Thanks to improvements in the ink set, all three models produce photos that have even greater clarity and detail than the previous generation and resist fading up to 96 years in a glass frame and about 200 years in a photo album.
