Kodak has introduced two new products - a fast drying photographic paper and an economy photographic paper - to its wide-format media portfolio.

Distributed locally by First Graphics, both of these products are covered by performance guarantees for image permanence and durability. Kodak Rapid-Dry Photographic Paper is a resin-coated paper that provides excellent image quality and fast drying times when used with Epson dye and pigment inks; HP pigmented inks; and dye-based Encad and HP printer/ink combinations. The product carries a performance guarantee of between seven and 20 years, depending on the ink and printer combination used.

Kodak Economy Photographic Satin Paper/160 g is a photo paper that provides all of the value of a Kodak wide-format paper for customers whose needs are less demanding. Economy Satin Photo is covered by a performance guarantee of between eight and ten years, once again, depending on the ink and printer used.
