Canon Selphy CP790 Digital Photo Printer


Canon photo printers are typically excellent, and the Selphy CP790 digital photo printer--the high end of the Selphy line--is no exception. It's also at the high end in terms of price for a photo printer, and worth it.

That is not just because the printed photo quality is excellent, or that it's very easy to set up and use, but also because it's the coolest-looking and, perhaps with the exception of the Polaroid Pogo, the most fun, photo printer I have tried.

This top-of-the-line Selphy photo printer compares price-wise with the Sony DPP-FP97 Digital Photo Printer, which puts it between $170-200. The Canon Selphy CP790 is the most luxurious of the Selphy line of compact photo printers and while it doesn't particularly excel past the other Selphy I've tried, it's still worth the extra money. There's something so audacious about a big green bucket that it's hard not to like it.

The Selphy is a dye-sublimation printer--it uses a proprietary ink ribbon and special paper that allows printing from a wide variety of media. A color 4x6 photo took just over one minute to print. Because it's a dye-sublimation printer, the photo comes out of the printer and is pulled back in several times to add new colors to the print. Photos print out with astoundingly rich and deep colors, and were as sharp as any printed photos I have ever seen.

Basic photo-editing features such as red-eye removal, and fun stuff such as frames and calendars, are easy to use via the printer itself--since it is meant to be portable, everything can be done without connecting to a PC.

Since it's meant to be portable (I mean, it's a big green plastic bucket!), it would be nice if Canon would include the battery and the Bluetooth adapter. If you want to go truly portable, you will need to spend another $79.99 for the battery and $49.99 for the Bluetooth adapter. Ink and paper come together; on Canon's site, 36 sheets of paper plus ink are $11.99 (4x6).

About Samsung scx 4500w


Long on design and short on features, the Sam-sung SCX-4500 multifunction laser printer is best suited for light home or office use. Unless you're willing to pay for a showcase printer your money will buy you more features and faster task speeds elsewhere.

The Good:
Sleek, sophisticated design; great print and color scan quality.

The Bad: Light feature set for the price; gray scale scan needs to be improved; on the slow side with task speeds; output tray mars the all-black aesthetic; lack of an inboard LCD means you will need to turn to your PC for advanced tasks.

Sam-sung SCX-4500W mufti-function printer:


The ultra-compact Sam sung SCX-4500W wireless laser mulch-function printer is known to be one of the smallest network-ready laser printer/copier/color scanners in the world. The Sam-sung SCX-4500W printer has a high-style glossy piano black finish that adds a touch of class to any environment.

HP Pro 8000 Printers


Hewlett Packard has been a name brand that people have trusted and relied upon for quality products and helpful service for a very long time.

The Hp Office jet Pro 8000 lives up to the standards that have been set by offering an energy saving, high performance product at a price anyone can afford. One of the things that people are looking for who do a lot of printing is the cost per page.

This basically means that you are spending less ink to get the same job done which saves a lot on luxurious ink cartridges. The Hp Officejet Pro 8000 offers 50% lower cost per page and also used 50% less energy which out does the majority of other printers on today’s market when it comes to saving a little extra money.

The Hp Office jet Pro 8000 is rated as one of our top products because it not only offers the average user high quality and fast printing but it also saves them time and money in the long run. One of the key factors in buying a printer now days is the quality of prints you’re going to get from it.

Those who plan on using their printer for more than just printing black and white documents are going to want a printer with high resolution and quality pictures. The Hp Office jet Pro 8000 has an amazing 4800 x 1200 dpi resolution so the clarity and quality of pictures on documents or photos are going to shine through every time.

You can even print extra long documents, reports or pictures that are longer than your typical 8.5 x 11 inch page by going up to 8.5 x 14 inch long. The Pro 8000 has a paper tray that can hold up to 500 sheets of standard paper so the annoying task of always loading new paper will be a thing of the past.


Summary:

The Hp Office jet Pro 8000 is a well rounded high quality printer that will save you not only money but also energy and time for all your printing needs. Print hundred page documents or laser quality products with just one printer.

Overall the Pro 8000 makes a name for itself with everything it is able to accomplish. The only real drawback is the lack of SD or memory card slot which for some is a must have when talking about taking pictures from a camera directly to the printer. If you don’t mind the lack of a card slot than the Hp Office jet Pro 8000 is the best band for the buck and amazing picture quality every time.

CLP 315 Printers


Samsung's USB-only CLP-315 is one of our all-time favorite color laser printers, but it's about to go off the market. However, the CLP-315w is set to be around for a while longer. It's a particularly compact device, but the downside of this is it’s.

Vibrant, professional color is now within your reach. The compact, built-in wireless SAMSUNG CLP-315W can easily fit in small places.

This stylish printer also features a black control panel and delivers dynamite color at 4ppm with sharp laser text at 17 ppm. And its wireless connectivity means no unsightly cords to deal with.

The Sam sung CLP-315W is a fancy looking wireless laser printer with a clean design and small footprint, but the output quality is unacceptable and the blisteringly slow speeds will have you searching for other options.
