Updated March 15, 2016: now available for additional DNP Printers.
Two years in development – perforated 6x8 tear and share media is now available exclusively from Imaging Spectrum for your DNP DS40, DS620, DSRX1 or Brava 21 photo printers. What is Tear and Share? Imagine a 6x8 print with two vertical perforations. Simply fold along the perforation and the media pulls apart to create 3 beautiful 2x8 photo strips. The 2x8 strip is 33% bigger than a 2x6, is more old school photo booth traditional, provides more real estate for logos, text or marketing messages and just looks very cool. We love how the 4 up looks – classy! 3 strips create new options like keeping one strip for the bride or memory book or creating a tear off coupon for a retail activation or a big marketing message for a corporate activation. What is the cost difference? The 6x8 tear and share media is $0.30 per print vs. $0.14 for a 4x6 for the DS40 and $0.36 per print vs. $0.16 for the Brava 21. While it’s a little more expensive it is a great opportunity to up-sell your clients with something new that they haven’t seen before. How do you design for a 2x8 photo strip? The beauty of the design is that you are simply printing a 6x8 (that happens to have two perforations). With Darkroom Booth, Core or Pro software it is easy to design a 6x8 print template that will result in 3 2x8 strips. We are offering a few free, easily customized templates to get you started that will work in any Darkroom Software product.

We also have a selection of themed 6x8 print templates available at Darkroom Templates. Learn more or buy perforated Tear and Share media here...

I wanted to print instant. I printed 4x6s. It was very fast and easy to use the email feature also. The choice was 4x6 prints or a digital image emailed. I had to turn my camera to Med instead of Large files (24MP) so the emails would send out. No problems with that. The colors on the prints are great. I am planning on buying another 620A printer to offer 5x7 prints along with 4x6 prints from the first printer. The software that I purchased to compliment this printer is Darkroom Core. It works perfect together. I also print instant at Proms, Homecoming Dance and other events. I will never go back to the old way, once the prints are printed, I am done with that event and dont have to return to deliver the prints. I would HIGHLY recommend this printer. Call Imaging Spectrum, they can let you know all the info on this printer. Worth every penny!!
