APPLICATION: Professional photographer specializing in kids and pets

CHALLENGE: Expanding services, eliminating event photo process with a color lab

SOLUTION: Mitsubishi CP-9550DW printer

Ronald Faup, owner of Faup Photos had built his photography business specializing in kids and pets, but wanted to expand in new directions. The Mitsubishi CP-9550DW provided the avenue for that expansion. Previously, when he did corporate events he had to wait for lab development of the film, then package it all and send off the photos to the client. But, for a recent corporate company outing that included family members, Faup was able to take a whole new approach. With more than 800 guests in attendance, he was still able to shoot them at the festivities and quickly print the images for presentation to attendees who were able to leave the event with the highest quality prints while the celebrations were fresh in their mind.

“We got so many comments that these prints were the best they had seen,” said Faup. “The immediacy of the image being available right at the event made a big impression and will allow me to expand my business further into corporate events, Christmas parties and golf outings. Best of all, in the months I’ve owned it, the printer has held up very well, the company has been ultra-responsive to all my questions and I’ve had no jams at all.”

The CP-9550DW features an adaptive thermal head management engine that provides ultra-fast, high volume, high-resolution images. A jam-free roll-type mechanism and edge-to-edge printing make it easy to use, durable and cost effective for almost any photographic application.
