Current Kindles do not support print replica. And there is also no indication that the Scribe won't support Print Replica. Amazon would be foolish to not allow it.

I have seen in the Amazon software that there is a new KFX variant being implemented called PDF backed fixed layout. I have not seen any examples of it yet and do not know what it is for. Perhaps it has something to do with the upcoming Kindle Scribe.
