The shift to digital cameras clobbered Kodak.

The New York Times reported Saturday the new focus for the company is expected to be commercial printers and service, as it walks away from its desktop line that was designed for small businesses and home use.

The move is expected to cost the company $90 million and add 200 more jobs to the total of 3,700 jobs already lost in the restructuring.
