Fujifilm introduces INSTAX Link Wide Smartphone Printer

FUJIFILM North America Corp. announces the INSTAX Link Wide Smartphone Printer (Link Wide), designed to complement the INSTAX Mini Link Smartphone Printer introduced in 2019. The INSTAX Link Wide Smartphone Printer is available in two colors, Ash White and Mocha Gray, and is expected to be available for purchase in late October 2021 at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $149.95 USD and $189.99 CAD.

“This product came to life thanks in part to tremendous positive feedback from our INSTAX community,” said Manny Almeida, division president, Imaging Division, FUJIFILM North America Corporation. “After enjoying all the image printing capabilities available from their INSTAX Mini Link Smartphone Printers, so many of our consumers reached out, enthusiastically requesting an INSTAX Wide photo print option as well, in order to print their Smartphone or digital camera images on a larger scale. With its updated features and ease-of-use, we’re confident that Link Wide will delight our consumer base while satisfying their desire for a wide option for printing their images.”

Link Wide creates high-quality, wide INSTAX instant prints from the photo roll on a smartphone via the INSTAX Link Wide App. In addition to smartphones, Link Wide is also compatible with the FUJIFILM X- S10 mirrorless digital cameras.

The lightweight, handheld Link Wide transfers an image via Bluetooth and starts the print in about 12 seconds, supports continuous printing, and is capable of generating about 100 INSTAX instant prints per battery charge. Link Wide provides two printing modes; INSTAX Rich, accentuating deep, warm colors, and INSTAX Natural, which emphasizes the inherent tones of the image.

Dedicated Link Wide App

The Link Wide App features editing tools including cropping, approximately 30 filters, collage capabilities, adding text to the printed image, as well as digital stickers and frame templates.

Also accompanying the launch of Link Wide is the new INSTAX Wide Black instant film, a new stylish black border providing a contrast against the printed images. INSTAX Wide Black instant film will be available in a single pack with 10 exposures beginning in October at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $21.99 USD and $14.99 CAD.
