KODAK Adaptive Picture Exchange (APEX) has been designed to make your resources work harder and your staff, smarter. Easy to use on both sides of the counter, your people spend more time selling than operating. APEX is modular and therefore expandable piece by piece, limiting both initial and expansion costs. Plus, thermal technology requires no water or chemicals saving resources and allowing you to locate anywhere.
APEX configurations
The KODAK Adaptive Picture Exchange (APEX) dry lab solution is totally modular. This intrinsic flexibility allows you to enlarge your photo center gradually—with minimal capital investment. With our plug-and-play Kodak accessories, only purchase what you need.
Walk away operation. You can train your staff in less than an hour. Your APEX runs virtually
unattended, freeing your employees to work with customers. Plus, our thermal printing systems
are clean and easy to maintain.
Less is more—a lot more. It’s so much easier for your staff to track one consumable SKU instead
of some competitor’s six to eight. The material inventory costs are low, which is good news since
reducing your stock-keeping costs is just a smarter way to use capital.
Go with the flow or direct it. Kodak lets you control production—when you need to. For example,
choice of automatic or manual order release and the ability to dedicate printer(s) to your most
pressing need delights both customers and staff.
Power where it’s needed. Kodak intelligent, shared image processing tools manage your
kiosk workflow switching image rendering and other heavy processing tasks to an APEX
Workstation—freeing up kiosks for the next customer.
Click, click—they pick them up the same day. Now you can direct online sales to your retail photo
business. KODAK Net-to-Retail Solution allows your APEX to receive and manage orders directly
from all categories of websites—including retailer.com, Pure Plays and other third parties.

to the previous model (G3)2, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 157 kg per year.3 Overall, you
can count on our systems to be efficient and intelligent in their use of media and consumables.
