  The new photo printing machine produces formats up to 12” x 18” or 12” x 36”, prints in HD quality and features perfectly an exclusive automated enhancement technology for digital pictures.

  Speaking in Lagos during an interactive session with key photo printing dealers drawn from both Nigeria and Benin Republic, the International Sales Manager, KIS Photo-Me Group, Mr. Pierre Buendia, said that the need to match consumers’ dynamic expectations was responsible for the new product that was launched last year in France.

  “Photo-Me recognises that today’s consumers were expecting more from their photos and that was why the new DKS4 delivers a full range of high value-added services, in a simple operation. The machine, which is a new generation of professional wet digital minilabs, is fully compatible with the Photo-Me Photobook Builder,” he said.

  Buendia further said that consumers and photo equipment entrepreneurs could take full advantage of the machine to print photobooks, greeting cards, frames and collage prints, among others.

We have sold close to 100 KIS printing machines in Nigeria and we have helped various enterpreneurs set up about 170 photo labs across the country. We are happy to partner with KIS once again as they introduce this new product into the Nigerian market. We have no doubt that it will bring great benefit to both consumers and investors.

  “As you might have discovered during Mr. Pierre Buendia’s presentation, the future is already here, particularly with the incredible features and benefits that could be gained with the new machine. I enjoin you all to take advantage of it,” he said.
