14 DAY TRIAL // Although digital photography reigns supreme nowadays, there are still quite a lot of users who like their photos the "old" way, namely on paper, and this is the reason why the best known manufacturers of printing solutions keep launching photo-dedicated printers on the market. And the latest such device comes from Canon, who has just announced the release of their PIXMA mini320 Compact Photo Printer, a device that provides very good quality printouts, a user-friendly control system and, more importantly, a very wide range of connectivity options.
Thus, the inkjet-based PIXMA mini320 compact photo printer has a maximum resolution of 9600 x 2400 color dpi and provides some pretty OK printing speeds as well, since a borderless 4 x 6 - inch photo lab-quality print takes around 40 seconds to complete, while a borderless 5 x 7-inch photo is ready in around 52 seconds. Moreover, as mentioned earlier, the device provides quite a lot of connectivity options, since it can print photos from compatible memory cards, digital cameras or camcorders, Bluetooth devices or even a compatible camera phone.
The device has been fitted with a bright, high-definition 2.5-inch LCD screen with wide viewing angles, but also with the Easy-Scroll Wheel user interface, which will be especially familiar with consumers who have popular portable digital music players, helping them immediately understand the operations that the wheel controls, including editing and printing. With the improved "NAVI" function, it not only displays the machine's on-screen guide, but it even navigates the user to the function they desire.
"With the demand for high-quality, affordable compact photo printers on the rise, Canon is committed to ensuring that the needs and wants of consumers are met," said Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A. "The addition of this new printer to our renowned line-up provides consumers with a high-quality, feature-rich compact photo printer that can produce exceptional 5" x 7" photo prints."
The device is available for around 180 US dollars, which is a relatively affordable price to pay for such a device, taking into consideration the advanced features this thing has to offer.
