Advantages: Small, great featires and quality. Disadvantages: Only get a tester ink cartridge with it.
i got this printer with my Canon digital camera for christmas, I don't have a printer at home, and was always taking my memory card to the supermarket to print off my pictures for around 30p each. But, now its very easy to print off the odd photo at home for whatever purpose I need. The ink cartridges are reasonably priced, around £10 for 40 pictures with the paper included if you go to the Canon website, and you get a taster cartridge to print 5 pictures with the printer which is good to test the printer! The picture quality is great and its very easy to use and sooo simple to set up initially which I wasn't expecting! The ink cartridge is so easy to insert and you simply pop your memory card in (a variety are accepted!!) and the pictures are shown on a full colour screen on the top of the printer, you can then choose to print or rotate ...
Advantages: Good Quality, portable, fast prints, simple Disadvantages: unknown
enough to use the camera, let alone my printer, so that's was the problem I had to solve with less then £80? and so my search for the compactprinter was on.
And I found one. Reduced in a sale, the CanonSelphyCP600 cost me £60, and it was definitely £60 well spent. On my daughters birthday I got to take over and try the thing out, and it was very good.
The Canon is designed to print photos up to 4 by 8 inches, and the speed of print was brilliant, about 70 seconds for a 4 by 6 inch borderless photo. In addition to offering good speed, it prints good looking output and comes with a rechargeable battery for full portability.
So of course I had to steal it and take it to work (as I do with all my children's gadgets) to have a good little play so I charge up the battery (it takes roughly 2hr 30mins to charge from flat) and I took along ...
Advantages: Small, easy to use, cheap ink and photo paper. Disadvantages: Sometimes prints dark images.
This is the small CanonSelphyprinter great for home picture printing. This small printer as you can see its stylish small and compact, it has small LCD screen and various different memory card slots (MS, SD, CF) and it has a couple of plugs to plug up your digital camera. Prints absolutely amazing quality but the only problem I have come across is some images when printed tend to come out a bit darker, so I usually have to lighten up the image on my PC before I print them. But other than that its a fantastic printer, easy to use and the ink and photo paper is really cheap and the ink lasts quite a while, its a great little printer which saves you money on getting your pictures printed somewhere else. ...
