Advantage One  Color Lab has been approved as a “Certified Digital Photo Processor.”  This approval allows Advantage One to promote itself as the elite in digital photo processing, and helps us to alert the public that pictures from digital media can be printed at photo labs instead of at home.  Digital camera sales have risen tremendously over the last couple of years.  With this in mind, independent photo labs like us needed to find a way to let consumers know that they could print photos from digital cameras.  This is very important because many consumers are unaware that they can have “real pictures” from digital media, such as SmartMedia, CompactFlash , SD Card, Memory Stick, CDs, and floppy disks, printed at a photo lab just as they do their traditional film. 

 This Certified Digital Photo Processor distinction also allows us to use the trademarked logo that was created by Independent Photo Imagers (IPI), America ’s largest group of independent photo labs.  Advantage One, a member of IPI, had to meet four requirements to be named a Certified Digital Photo Processor, among them educational and quality control.  Upon approval by the authorizing committee, these requirements will have to be met on an annual basis.
