Valhalla, NY, February 17, 2009 –FUJIFILM U.S.A., Inc. and Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX) have aligned their digital imaging and printing expertise to offer the Xerox 700 Digital Color Press for professional and commercial photo labs, combining their digital imaging and digital printing expertise to take advantage of the growing market for specialty photo products. Items that can be printed include photo books, photo calendars, greeting cards, as well as, trading cards, fun packs and a host of other specialty printed photo products.

The Xerox 700 Digital Color Press can print a wide range of photo book sizes adding to the line-up of products commercial and professional photo labs can offer their customers. Fujifilm and Xerox have collaborated to create custom sized photo papers for the Xerox 700 to support the fulfillment of specialty photo products.

• Ability to print on a wide range of substrates, up to 110 lb cover/300 g/m2

The Xerox 700 Digital Color Press uses a low-melt emulsion aggregation (EA) toner created by Xerox and FujiXerox, producing full color prints at high speeds. The toner’s micro particles also ensure high quality halftones, smooth transitions, and rich shadow detail. This environmentally-friendly toner requires less energy to manufacture and print, minimizing the impact on the environment.

“Fujifilm and Xerox are committed to growing the business of photo specialty printing in the commercial and professional photo market. The Xerox 700 is an outstanding choice for customers that need production features at an affordable price,” said Quincy Allen, president, Global Business and Strategic Marketing Group, Xerox Corporation. “Through our collaboration with Fujifilm we are able to deliver the right digital printing technology, media and business development support to commercial and professional photo labs.”
