4PASS Printing Technology

The 4PASS system for the instapix™ produces a color or black + white print at 2.1” x 3.4”, which is 30% larger than other instant print systems.  Photos are printed in less than a minute and are fully developed and dried instantly. Shots are printed in 16.7 million real colors with an extra added protective layer so memories last a lifetime.

Because of the picture quality, a Minolta 4PASS photo can be enlarged to 4”x 6” or 6” x 10”.  With some other technologies, photos cannot be enlarged because of low image quality or because the images are not retained after output from the camera.

Flexibility – Also Print Photos From Your Smartphone

The Minolta instapix™ system allows you to enjoy the convenience of instant printing with the technological advantages of digital photography.  Smart and flexible, it syncs with your smartphone via Bluetooth® and provides digital upgrades like auto-focus and gamma correction. The smartphone app allows you to control your camera, remotely shoot from the camera and save photos to your smartphone, or send and print pictures that have already been stored in your smartphone’s photos library.

Image Preservation

The printing technology, also known as dye sublimation, produces superb photos and seals each print with a high gloss laminate coating. The prints are durable, long lasting and waterproof.  The final printout is smudge-proof and fingerprint-proof.  With other technologies, the prints are not waterproof and will curl or smudge as a result of moisture or humidity.

Fully Developed and Ready to Share

Each color patch is directly adhered to the paper to reproduce the most similar color as the original photo was captured. Included at the edge of each printout is a detachable 0.4” blank white space for you to jot down a date, memory or fun phrase. The entire printing process completes in under 50 seconds from start to finish.
