PfDS funnel beyond MAT1
Customer Business Status
Klick Retail outlets throughout UK with central fulfillment out of four labs. 14-15 million rolls per year. Starting in-store kiosk trial with HP in March 2003. Fulfilled with existing Fuji printers. If trial is successful in terms of demand, will proceed with beta trial of c9100 system.
Fotolabo 100 mail order. 450M prints per year (1/3 of mail order market in Europe). Currently processing 2 online orders, growing at 200 per year. 13 of revenue from reprints and enlargements. 7 of revenue from CD burning. Goal 50 of revenue from digital products by 2004. Meetings at Photokina in Oct 2002 and onsite in Nov 2002. Extremely high interest. Just completed IQ evaluation of c9100. Asking very detailed questions about operation of press, image enhancements, consumables.
Photocolour Kreuzlingen 100 mail order. 100M prints per year. 15 of analog customers want image CD. Online orders currently 5 and growing. Meetings at Photokina in Oct 2002 and onsite in Nov 2002. High interest. Currently evaluating Indigo IQ. Looking to implement full digital workflow by Easter 2004. Interested in potential beta test end of 2003. Willing to sit down and discuss workflow in detail.
Fuji Switzerland 4-5 digital orders today, growing rapidly. Image CD with 10 of orders. Meeting at Photokina in Oct 2002. Have expressed interest in a potential beta test. (We tend to test one of everything.)
District Photo Mail order central lab for 1000 independent retailers in northeast. Agreement with Kodak/Qualex to fulfill overnight orders in five states. Very focused on ROI. Looking for two-year breakeven. Meeting at Photokina in Oct 2002. Have expressed extreme willingness to bring us in to understand workflows and to build TCO model. Have done IQ evaluation of both Phogenix and Indigo.
Shutterfly Online order fulfillment. Currently running Indigo 3000 for photo-related products. Had been considering Gretag for growing digital print capacity. Further discussion at PMA.

Marketing risks update
Marketing Risks _at_ DO Marketing Risks _at_ DO Status _at_ I/L
Competitive reaction of lower AgX pricing to HPs introduction of photofinishing solutions We think we understand the raw costs of AgX. However, we dont understand the magnitude of the defensive posture of Fuji and Kodak. Agfa is really the competitor to be watched. Were confident our CPP, combined with a broader TCO value proposition, is solid for PfDS or RE. Will need to assess more closely for PfCNF where we will likely be competing more closely on cost per print.
Value proposition proven Resolve by I/L. Needs to be tested with more customers. Competitive solutions could beat us (timing, functionality, etc.) Feedback from major customers has been extremely positive both during and after Photokina. Value proposition appears to be strong, but we will attempt to quantify through TCO models. Main concern at this point is with Agfa d-ws system and its components. Agfa is known, were unproven.
Digital adoption occurs slower than we assume Market in transition. Our assumptions on what will win might be wrong. Feedback from major customers indicates strong growth in digital source orders. gt200 growth year-over-year
Understand market and design requirement for portrait lab market. Resolve by I/L. Not in scope of program but is financially very favorable. Fairly strong understanding of key requirements following in-depth visits with portrait customers in U.S. Further validation at PMA.
Ability to meet customer requirement at market trial (throughput, reliability, IQ, etc.) Need more information on customer requirements and customer workflow. RD spent one week at CeWe in Nov 2002. Key requirements and workflow well understood. SRD published and approved by CeWe in Jan 2003. System reliability is the biggest concern at this point.
24
Additional PfDS marketing risks
XY cutter pricing 200K for XY cutter not yet tested with key PfDS and RE customers. Spitzke negotiations still in progress. Need to evaluate price sensitivity.
XY cutter sourcing XY cutter is a control point in the PfDS/RE solution. Spitzke negotiations regarding IP critical to our mid- to long-term strategy. Will need to evaluate situation following current round of negotiations.
Lack of redundancy c9100 can represent a single-point of failure within the customers workflow. Some customers have indicated that they would rather have two printers running half speed at half cost.
Weight of HP paper Some customers have expressed concern that our paper may be too light or too thin. Need to assess relative to other photo paper.
Drift in image quality within a system as well as between systems We will work with CeWe to do some acceptance testing. Long term, we will need to establish a set of objective tests.

    supportability, and DM improved

34
Electronics (finisher)
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Finisher interface to the Image Hub has not yet
    been defined
  • Make completion of this design a priority and
    allow time by off loading assembly tasks to
    ETWs.
  • Eye-mark sensor DM too high sensor has not been
    selected
  • Continue to work with Spitzke sensor package
    due mid-Mar. Reviewing feasibility of potential
    contingency designs.

    when ETW left
  • Have hired a replacement EE ETW (2 mo contract).
  • Plan to have a EE FTE on board by 1-May.
  • Have approval for firing of EE Tech. ETW (2 mo.
    contract)
  • Path to rev. 1
  • Support DM cost reduction and regulatory
    compliance

35
hp indigo c9100
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • The ?E for black ink is gt 2.5 and the impact to
    the system ?E has not been quantified
  • Assess impact to system ?E . Possible outcome
    may require black ink with ?E lt 2.5
  • Condensation fix BCS potentially too late to
    start trial
  • Ship without fixes and perform upgrades at Cewe
  • Assessment of the PE contamination fix later than
    hoped
  • Expend resources testing contaminate removal
    systems
  • Running out of time to solve PE web tracking
  • Provide quick feedback through monitoring
    equipment
  • Path to rev. 1
  • No issues identified

  • On-plan to be code complete on schedule
  • System performance continuing effort to prove
    feasibility, hp indigo pushing on some new ideas
  • Ink reduced color maps delivering good image
    quality
  • Global Contrast Enhancement prototyped into
    pipeline initial results are promising from IQ
    improvements
  • Color calibration/press consistency AML
    identified as viable solution drawback are
    added waste and non-ideal workflow integration.
  • Layout algorithm is handling smallest to
    largest excellent progress
  • Architecture scalability for performance have
    verified that we can use 3 PIEs.

46
Image Pipeline for MAT1Sharpening
  • Selectively sharpens edges and fine detail.
  • Avoids sharpening noise.
  • Brings out feature detail by using a local area
    edge filter.

47
Image Pipeline for MAT1Smoothing
  • Selectively smoothes noise due to
  • Poor capture devices.
  • Compression artifacts.
  • Avoids smoothing edges or fine detail.

48
Image Pipeline for MAT1Global Contrast
Enhancement
  • Brings Depth to faded or foggy images
  • Fixes under/over exposure.
  • Improves contrast.
  • Does not alter hues.

49
Photo Imaging Engine (PIE)
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Late arrival of QA resources and lack of SW
    integration plan is concern for SW verification.
    Trying very hard at the engineering level to get
    it right. Test harnesses around most components.
  • Global Contrast Enhancement performance/throughp
    ut/IQ requirements.
  • Initial revision integrated into pipeline,
    analysis to begin post-PMA
  • Path to rev. 1
  • Work proactively with CeWe to understand if IQ
    requirements are being met through periodic
    reviews before and during trial.Plenty of
    support from customer, simply need to engage.

50
Image Hub
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Late arrival of QA resources and lack of SW
    integration
  • plan is concern for SW verification. Trying
    very hard at the engineering level to get it
    right. Test harnesses around most components.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • Eliminate hot folder interface to BMS, provide
    a more direct PfDF client-server connection.
  • Make a smarter layout algorithm based on
    customer feedback.

51
Computer Rack
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Unfamiliar with full requirement set of a rack
  • Ordered current planned configuration - will
    configure system and test post-PMA
  • Path to rev. 1
  • No significant issues identified

52
System Performance
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Performance havent fully proven yet, cant do
    until we get a new PC from Indigo.
  • HP Indigo DPT convinced that current x2100
    (current Indigo PE Controller Computer) cannot
    deliver current speed/throughput specifications
    PCI bandwidth limited.
  • Intent is to change to x4000 class system with 2x
    PCI, Windows XP and VCORN3 imaging system.
  • HP Indigo committing to deliver for first market
    trial. DPT to get schedule from HP Indigo. This
    will require further risk assessment.
  • HP Indigo has proven performance using the new
    PC configuration.Contingency is to use x2100 at
    lower performance to start trial, upgrade during
    the trial.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • No significant issues identified

53
Image Quality
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Image quality variance throughout day. This will
    require a cost per page vs. image quality
    tradeoff.
  • Indepth cost per page modeling to understand
    processes to correct varianceContinue
    development to lower image quality variance. ACA
    is not adequate for photo requirements request
    fix in 6.5 software AML meets requirements for
    color consistency, waste cost high Color map
    changes to help offset where possible Compile
    operator knowledge base to transfer to
    customer Compare against competition sellable
    prints between calibrations
  • Which UI knobs are required/defined their
    effect of adjustment are notWill start dialogue
    with CeWe engineers post-PMA to gain better
    understanding of adjustments.
  • Lack of Jetstream resources focused on image
    qualitySuccessfully engaged members of Hudsons
    team to assist with color map generation and
    image enhancement evaluation.Pull Jason back
    into the mix once layout algorithm settles down.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • No significant issues identified

54
Workflow
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Quantity of waste pages (calibration, substrate
    change/resupply, end of batch flush, landing
    zones) negative impact to cost per page.
    Quantify the amount of waste, identify high
    contributors, develop solutions to
    eliminate/reduce.Work with hp indigo to minimize
    length/frequency of calibration jobs.Model
    substrate change/resupply end of batch flush
    and determine any quick fixes in either HW/SW.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • No significant issues identified

55
Layout
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Several conflicting requirements (e.g. print
    order is smallest to largest) for layout may
    minimize the overall effectiveness of reducing
    waste.Doing our best to nail as many of these
    scenarios as possible while also reducing waste.
    Have good verification procedures/plans
    identified.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • Enhance layout algorithm to handle more print
    sizes and continue to push on waste reduction
    vector.

56
Error Recovery
  • Risks Path Forward to rev. 0 (MAT1)
  • Use cases not fully flushed out to understand
    impact to both HW and SW system cause of this
    is various time constraints.Elevate priority of
    this task, assess overall impact, address as much
    as possible with SW.
  • Error Recovery, not clear how automated this
    should be.Taking a critical look at the entire
    system to determine best path forward.
  • Path to rev. 1
  • Identify potential changes once use cases are
    fully flushed out and address as appropriate.

57
PfRE Software Development
  • Reorder station
  • Establish engineering relationship with reorder
    station manufacturer

87
Cost per Page The Story
  • There are different levels of costs
  • Consumables CPP
  • This will be a cost per page with no waste and no
    layout costs. This will have no labor, etc.
    costs. This cost will be used as a competitive
    CPP vs. AgX.
  • Loaded CPP
  • This will be our true cost per page including
    layout, waste generation, color calibration, etc.
    We will use this information to work with the
    customer to optimize their business (which
    layouts are efficient, which image sizes cost the
    most, etc.)
  • TCO
  • This will be the total cost of ownership for a
    customer. It will include Big CPP but also have
    labor, workflow, etc. It will be the total cost
    a business will see if they use our system. It
    will be used as a comparison with AgX TCO.

88
CPP Methodology
  • Use DPS CPP as the basis
  • Develop Photo based assumptions
  • Verify assumptions through tests
  • Recalculate cost per page
  • Adjust model as appropriate
  • Take action to meet goals
  • Iterate

89
CPP Next Steps
  • Develop Excel model which approximates the cost
    per page. It will be a function of the
    following Image content, color map, layout,
    waste, yield. Iterate on model as empirical
    information increases.
  • Continue tests to develop understanding of
    consumable usage (Ink alpha test, color
    consistency test, uptime test).
  • Update PDO staff monthly on status.

90
TCO Next Steps
  • Weekly meetings between finance and marketing
  • Develop TCO model.
  • Perform due diligence with key customers over
    next two months.
  • Update PDO staff monthly on status.
