In fact the S330 produces borderless 4"x6" photos in just 80 seconds as well as being able to deliver mono prints at up to 14ppm, and color documents at up to 10ppm. The addition of Quiet Mode and fast USB (Full Speed) support make the S330 Photo printer the most desirable in its class. A compact, sleek design keeps pace with its performance, complementing any desktop. The S330 Photo also comes with Adobe PhotoShop Elements software in the box, which is a state-of-the-art image-editing tool, which allows you to explore your creativity, while mastering the elements of digital imaging.
