In these difficult economic times, one proven way to increase USPS® revenue is through the sale of passport photos. The new Fujifilm IP-10 Digital Passport Photo System provides an economical way for you to take cost-efficient digital passport photos while being gentle on your postal budget.
The Fujifilm IP-10 is a simple-to-use, entry-level system for creating passport photos, visas, and other forms of identification. The system includes the FinePix J10 digital camera kit with a second lithium ion battery and the FinePix IP-10 printer. Designed to support “tethered” shooting — with the camera connected to the printer using the provided USB extension cable — the system allows for quick transfer of the photo to the printer without handling a removable digital media card. The camera does not need to be connected during the picture taking process, only during the downloading of images to the printer.
With digital photography, there is no more wasted film due to retakes, or photos torn while removing them from the camera. The camera is fully automatic — just aim and shoot. Fujifilm’s Image Intelligence provides outstanding prints every time that meet Department of State criteria for passport photos.
The Fujifilm IP-10 Digital Passport Photo System is available now on the Topeka Material Distribution Center’s eBuy catalog for $399.00 (NSN 6720-12-000-6863). The digital media to print your photos from this system is available for $59.00 per box of 120 prints (NSN 6720-12-000-6862).
Whether you are a newly approved passport acceptance site or looking to update your old passport photo equipment, the Fujifilm IP-10 Digital Passport Photo System offers an affordable solution that will meet your requirement.
