Swains International is offering all Swains Pro-Focus partners free home delivery with the purchase of the Epson Stylus A3+ printers 1290S, R1800 and R2400. Swains is also providing a free gold plated USB cord worth £14.99 with any printer purchase.
This means retailers can save money on delivery and either boost their bottom line by selling the USB cord or drive custom in-store with a consumer offer for a free cord with every printer purchase. The 24K gold plated, corrosion-proof connectors allow maximum conductivity with a clean, clear transmission, and are considered substantially better quality than the silver plated connectors.
Danny Williams, marketing director at Swains, comments: "These printers are three of the highest quality A3+ printers on the market and are fast becoming a common feature in most photographic enthusiasts' homes. We are pleased to support independent retailers with the free home delivery service, and the opportunity to boost their bottom line or provide customers with an added-value offer."
The Stylus Photo 1290S creates vibrant colour prints assisted by its Epson QuickDry six colour ink set, with print life lasting up to 25 years. Photo formats are flexible, border free and range from 100x150mm up to A3+. Epson Intellidge cartridges are easy to change and for special panoramic photo formats it has a roll paper holder. This printer has an NAS price of £218.34, and guide of £299.00, allowing retailers to make great margins.
The Stylus Photo R2400 has an advanced Epson UltraChrome K3 pigment ink set for long lasting enlargements on a wide range of media. True black and white prints are produced by the three black ink system, while separate ink cartridges ensure the efficient use of ink. Border free prints can be created on both cut sheet and roll paper, up to A3+ size. The R2400 has an NAS of £437.40, and guide of £599.00.
The Stylus Photo R1800 retails at £399.00 with an NAS of £291.36. Outstanding, borderless printing is created by a resolution up to 5760 x 1440 optimised dpi, achieving a high quality finish on gloss or matte media.
