Re: Digital Camera Printers

I got a Hewlett Packard photosmart 7350 about 4 years ago. I liked it because I didn't have to hook it up to the computer, you just insert the memory card into it and print.

But I have stopped using it and just order online at Shutterfly because the ink is so expensive. Between the ink and paper, it is cheaper to order online. And I felt like it went through ink like crazy! I don't know if it is different with the newer ones.

If I remember correctly it was about $30 for each...it needed 2 different ones, a colored and black. The paper varied. You can get cheaper paper at places like cvs or there are more $ brands which are better quality.

Re: Digital Camera Printers

we have the Canon i960. photo paper isn't that expensive...about $20 for a pack from staples. ink at staples is about $11 per cartridge, (there are 6 cartridges) but i just found a website where they have cartridges that are compatible for $4.95.

the printer can either be hooked up to the camera directly, or to the computer. whichever you prefer.

Re: Digital Camera Printers

I bought the Canon i960 about 2 yrs ago and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Two of my friends bought it too and love it. It was about $180 and I bought it on Dell.com The paper I use is Kodak brand, which I like best and I buy it at Costco. It's $20 for 100 sheets. The printer uses 6 ink cartridges (2 photo ink and 4 regular) and they are about $10-12 at Best Buy but you can get them cheaper online.

Canon has a new version of this printer out now, it got very good reviews (just like mine). Good luck!

No it doesnt matter that its Pentax - as long as the USB cord can plug into the printer.
Check them out in the store and make sure its compatable.
Also, the i960 is the same size as a regular color printer. IMO the smaller printers dont work as well, not as far as I've seen anyway.
