Features:

Superb Print Quality
Incorporating Sony dye sublimation technology, the UP-DR200 produces photoquality prints. Crisp and vibrant prints can be created with natural, continuous tones, on print media that is very similar in texture to traditional photography paper. In addition, the UP-DR200 offers two types of surface finish - glossy and ProMatte - and it can print onto four different paper sizes: 3.5 x 5 inch, 4 x 6 inch, 5 x 7 inch, and 6x8 inch.

High-volume Printing
With its large paper capacity, the UP-DR200 is a true workhorse. For example, it can hold a roll of paper for 700 4 x 6 inch prints, 400 5 x 7 inch prints, or 350 6 x 8 inches. This high-volume printing capability results in less time spent replacing paper media. Plus, the paper roll itself is small in size, so the printer retains a compact form.

Easy to Maintain with Auto-loading Mechanism and Front Operation
The front-loading operation and auto-loading mechanism of the UP-DR200 enables easy replacement of paper and ribbon. Simply open the front door and insert the roll and ribbon! Maintaining the UP-DR200 does not require special technical training. The printing side of the paper roll has been inverted to avoid leaving fingerprints during paper replacement. Moreover, front loading allows the printer to be installed in even the tightest spaces, such as a kiosk. In fact, the UP-DR200 is ideal for kiosk applications as the paper outlet is located at the upper of the unit. The convenient rear panel provides recessed interface connections that make setup and access easy. Plus, any power cord or USB cables, can be clamped to the main unit to prevent them from being unplugged.

High-speed Printing
The UP-DR200 operates at high speed, regardless of the print size. For example, printing a 4 x 6 inch image takes approximately 8 seconds, a 5 x 7 inch takes approximately 12.5 seconds, and a 6 x 8 inch image takes 14.5 seconds.

High throughput
The UP-DR200 can produce 450 4 x 6 inch prints per hour. This high throughput rate maximizes system uptime, which will make your photo-printing business a success. *When printing pictures of 50% plain gray color consecutively at 25 °C.

USB Interface
The UP-DR200 is equipped with a Hi-Speed USB (USB 2.0) interface that allows for fast image data transfer.

PC Compatibility
To enhance its flexibility, the printer is supplied with PC driver software - compatible with Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional and Vista.

Low Noise Level
The UP-DR200 operates at a low noise level, thereby minimizing disruptions in your workplace.

Gray Balance Adjustment Capability
Using the printed gray balance chart, it is easy to specify the neutral gray color. The UP-DR200 can distinguish between delicate gray colors and reproduce the preferred color.

Real-time Monitoring of Printer Status via LCD
The UP-DR200 offers real-time monitoring of the remaining number of prints, the total number of prints, the printer status, and any error status via its integrated LCD panel.
