Product Description

The KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II printing system offers a combination of printing and processing options that produces photographic quality output of digital images. The images are printed at a resolution of 250 dpi and at sizes varying from 8 x 10 in. to 20 x 33 in.

Images printed with this system are comparable to images produced on an optical printer. By using KODAK PROFESSIONAL Digital Paper with proper color management, the 20P printer provides the “look” of VPS film on KODAK PORTRA or SUPRA Paper, or GOLD Film on KODAK EKTACOLOR Edge Paper.

The system consists of a MACINTOSH or PC host computer to manage and manipulate the digital source image, a SCSI interface to transfer the digital image to the printing system, the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20P to expose the digital image, and the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Processor, to develop the image and deliver the print.

You can use a variety of software applications (such as KODAK Image Print

Server Software) to manage and manipulate the digital images.

SCSI Interface

A SCSI cable connects the host computer to the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20P. This interface transfers the digital image data from the host computer to the printer.

KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20P

The KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Printer 20P exposes digital images on photographic quality paper using a sophisticated technology involving Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). The printer uses KODAK PROFESSIONAL Digital Paper in 10-, 11-, 12-, 20-inch and A4 widths to create prints of 8 x 10 in. to 20 x 33 in. The printer then delivers the exposed paper to the KODAK PROFESSIONAL LED II Processor, where RA-4 processing techniques develop the image and deliver the print.
