The Fujifilm ASK2000 has now been superseeded by the Fuji ASK2500

The Fujifilm ASK-2000 Thermal Photo Printer enables a wide range of professional photographers to reap the benefits of Fujifilm's industry-leading commercial photo printing technology. Incorporating FujiFilm's Image Intelligence to enhance image quality, the ASK-2000 gives you the ability to produce lab-like photos in just seconds, and it delivers prints that can truly be considered lab quality, are water-resistant and last for decades.

The ASK-2000 has a high-speed printing capability of one print per 6.9 seconds (4 x 6 size).  Speedy response means less customer waiting and enhanced shop service.  The ASK-2000 gives you the lab quality prints you desire without the wait, making it a reliable, affordable, and convenient way to print your photos.

The ASK-2000 Digital Printer allows studio, wedding and event photographers to quickly and easily provide customers with onsite printing capability and eliminates the need and expense of organizing, printing and mailing photos in the days following an event. By simply connecting the printers to a laptop via a high-speed USB 2.0 interface, professional photographers can use the ASK-2500 dye-sublimation thermal transfer technology to produce beautiful, natural-looking prints onsite at client events.

Key Features:

Dye Diffusion Thermal Transfer Printing System

The ASK-2000 Printer uses Fujifilm's chemical-free dye-sublimation print technology. This method involves an ink ribbon, heated by a thermal head and coated with dye, which transfers the dye onto special coated paper. The paper absorbs the dye to form visible images, and is then sealed by a protective UV overcoat layer to provide a water-resistant barrier, helping to ensure the preservation of images.

Image Intelligence Technology

Fujifilm's Image Intelligence technology is the integration of vast image analysis, evaluation and processing know-how that Fujifilm has amassed over many years of experience in industries and applications as diverse as medical imaging, graphic arts and photography. The resulting technology - incorporated into many Fujifilm products - includes a series of software utilities collectively known as Image Intelligence. Among the key Image Intelligence features pro-photographers will see in this product are excellent color correction and smoothing of skin tones.

Small Footprint and Easy Maintenance

All operation and maintenance functions, from switching on the power to loading paper and changing ink ribbons, can be performed with the printer in place, and can be conveniently accessed by opening the front cover. No light-sensitive materials are required, so the printers can be installed and operated in normal surroundings.

Print Versatility and Speed

The ASK-2000 Digital Printer offers edge-to-edge printing and is capable of delivering output sizes of 6x4", 5x7", 6x8" and 6x9", and the printer produces a 6" x 4" print in 6.9 seconds and 6 x 9-" prints in just 16 seconds, allowing professional photographers to generate up to 100 prints per hour.

Predictability of Cost

The dye sublimation printing technology used in the ASK-2000 ensures fixed print costs no matter what your image content, and Image Intelligence Technology ensures print quality for less waste and further enhances the prints to look as if they came from a photo lab.
